Seth MacFarlane's "The Orville"

[Nostalgiabuff]

really great writing and a great cast. this is right up there with Best of Both worlds, which is considered one of the greatest episodes of any TV show in history

[palitoy]

I really enjoyed this one especially the idea that Issac is a second generation and therefore could be higher evolved than his "parents".

[Hector]

Nailed, it, Hec.

Pretty close...

I thought last week couldn’t be topped, well, it was. This episode was as good as anything I’ve seen in Star Trek. This episode alone makes every single Discovery episode look like mosquito shlat.

I didn’t call the Krill helping out though...that was a nice surprise.

I have a theory on how it’s going to play out.

Nailed, it, Hec.

Ok, back in the day I didn't read tabloids so I never heard the rumors. I figured there would be no status quo shakeup long term for the show.

[Sideshow Spock]

Oh, like anyone doubted Picard would not be saved in the second part.

LOTS of people doubted whether Picard would be saved, rumors of Stewart leaving the show were all over the fan mags..

The episode electrifies audiences when it begins airing on syndication June 18, 1990. Even Trekkies who refused to accept Next Generation as legitimate are buzzing. Rumors of Patrick Stewart's exit swirl, with fans waiting an agonizing three months for the conclusion to air in September. Meanwhile, the writers are tasked with figuring out how to follow up their first cliffhanger ever.

C'mon now, let's not confuse this with Best of Both Worlds

Oh, like anyone doubted Picard would not be saved in the second part. I rewatched the Orville episode and towards the end I noticed Isaac is mighty quiet.

More like Alien Nation The TV Series "finale"

[Sideshow Spock]

^I'm so glad they didn't do that. The wait would've killed me.

[thunderbolt]

then it doesn't get picked up so you never know what happens.

[Hector]

Yup... ^^^^

[thunderbolt]

Should have been the season finale and leave everyone hanging till next season.

[Hector]

That’s a good one too! ^^^^^^^^

*****SPOILER THEORY*****

Possibly, Hec. I've been thinking that, too. My other theory:
