USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

Has anyone seen this? I think the classic Enterprise looks great on this video with modern lighting and some minor detail changes...

That's of course the best one!
 
I'm curious if Strange New Worlds will have the holographic rec room from the Animated show. We're overdue for a holodeck malfunction episode for 20 years, since Voyager.
 
A smooth white ship was probably the only option for late 1960's TV's. Greeblies would have been too hard to see and a darker colored ship would have been harder to see overall.
Nope.

It was still standard practice for futuristic space ships to be smooth hulled when ST: TOS was made. Matt Jefferies also had other reasons for it being smooth hulled. One being he wanted every thing internalized so the crew wouldn't have to go outside the ship to fix stuff. Another one being that it was meant to be a rather large object. Small details on a big thing disappear the further you get away from them.


The whole "throw model kit bits all over it for visual noise" stuff happened a bit later and became the unfortunate norm thanks to Star Wars.
 
that sentence is why i dropped the orville after 5 episode it's basically a rehash of TNG with shitty familly guy ''humor''
It's not as bad as it sounds. And it doesn't have Family Guy humour. It's never that crass.

Like what fireproof said above, it's an interesting episode with a good use of social commentary.
 
"Glory hole."
The humor is hit and miss with me. Most episodes I prefer are early Season 1 with the pilot, Pria and "Should the Stars Appears" (featuring a cameo by Liam Neeson). The rest is just OK, and never warranted my full attention. Bortus' ongoing relationship struggles interested me too. It was good drama.
