Yes, I can.
Discovery and "The Orville" Comparisons

- Start date
He's just taking cues from MacFarlane's example.Gee why so nasty all the time?
Hell, there are programs that I want to see in the US that are only allowed to be seen in the UK! So yes, I can fully believe that. In fact, I get annoyed every time I see someone whine about geoblocking for something they demand that they should be allowed to see.
I am used to it. But...Orville is apparently going to be on Fox here...but I don’t think there’s an air date for it yet. You would think they would chase the buzz. Admittedly am moving House so TV is...less than optimal atm, and I may have missed it actually starting.
I think someone said it starts in January in the UK.
i was kinda pissed.
Because TV
At the start of a season most full order series (22 eps.) go 8 or 9 new eps. and then start repeats until November sweeps where they pull out the 'Big Gun' episodes
The Orville has a half season (13 eps.) total - so yeah, given that they still need something for November sweeps, it follows they'd so repeat after 5/6 episodes.
I remember these ratings updates in the Ent forum back when the show was running. Say what one may about CBSAA, and I have my gripes with the app too, but I am glad DSC isn't in a situation where we have to see these ratings updates after every episode.
Actually it's available to stream on Hulu and iTunes.
At this point after viewing both, I highly recommend the Orville, STD and I suddenly realized people are just being charitable by referring to Discovery as DISC or DSC..too funny.. I think ST
is more of a reboot with similar Canon mixed in, but it's not the star trek universe I remember. Why for the life of me, we couldn't get an Enterprise J series with a series middle arc which dealt with the sphere builders and the beginnings of the temporal wars. That, no..NO, THAT, would have been a series I'd definitely pay to see. Now as it is, I feel like I'm paying for brutality, and punishment with Discovery..it's sooo bad. The over acting, the darkness..the horrible dark feel. Its like BSG on a bad day..just not my cup of tea..which it may to some, but for me..I'm looking forward to the next Orville.
Sometimes, yeah. It's nuBSG without the level of writing for character that show had.
That's just part of the classic Trek experience
Correct, BSG wasn't that high.
Hulu doesn’t stream in th uk, last time I looked, and it’s not on iTunes here either.
The Orville streams in India already, via Star Asia.
