    "USS Callister"

    Jesse "Meth Damon" Plemons as the Captain. Jimmi Simpson as Some Guy. Looks like some creepy tyranny thing going on. I'm hoping the twist is great.

    Love Black Mirror. I hope the strike rate in this season is good. There were a couple of duds in S3, like the video game one with Kurt Russell's son. I like the last episode as well though the execution was a little flat.

    Looks like a parody of The Orville. :devil:

    I'd say the time is ripe for a comedic parody of Star Trek. It hasn't been done lately.

    The Orville is a professionally produced scifi show. This looks like bad fan fiction.

    It looks like low-budget JJ Abrams Star Trek through a Twilight Zone or Red Dwarf filter.

    But the episode will probably be much better than anything on Discovery or The Orville.
