    Rob Lowe always has that charisma in his roles. I was surprised (pleasantly) that he'd take on a role like it to be honest.
    Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

      Yeah I spotted him under that makeup right away. It helps that I've been re-watching Parks and Recreation over the last couple of months.

        This last episode is my favorite. I actually laughed out loud a little. I really enjoyed the elevator scenes. I hope we see more of that crewmember, the actor really can carry a comedic scene. (Not today's episode, last weeks)

          Anyone notice the direct references to or outright parodies of Star Trek episodes last night? (11/16)
          Spoiler:
          For example, "stepping into the turbolift and stepping into space"? Picard had the same experience in "Where No One Has Gone Before".

          There were a few others as well.

            Reminded me of DS9 "Distant Voices" and TNG "Remember Me" among other episodes but at the same time it stood on it's own.

              I've never watched most of DS9, but yeah, I can see "Remember Me" too.

              Maybe we ought to start a thread in the games section for spotting Trek parodies in The Orville.

                  Be a fun game for next season, though.

                    The most recent episode reminded me a bit of the episode where Beverly Crusher kept experiencing the loss of crew members until she was the only one left on the Enterprise and had to figure out what was going on.

                      That was "Remember Me".

                        I think they may start an Orville section soon so we can have a thread to track Trek references, whether it be a game or just informational. We could also track them in the individual episode threads.

                          Woohoo, we got Richard Woolsey, alias the Doctor, alias Dr. Zimmerman last episode!
                          Also, if that wasn't a prime example of an essentially Star Trek episode, then those Star Trek series I've watched must have been frauds.

                          Also, "I've crushed an alligator in the cargo bay."

                            This show is a stroke of genius.

                            A lot of Trek fans like myself balk at subscribing to a service an d buying a gadget to plug into the TV (Yes, I know, I can stream on computer and show on TV via HDMI. But it's a P.I.T.A.) I understand their need to pay the bills. So put it on Netflix, Amazon Prime or something; a payed streaming service. I have other objections to that marketing type as well, but I digress.

                            From what I've read, it's not all that good anyway. I'll wait till it's available via convenient distribution.

                            So there is this frustration over real "Trek", and into that void steps The Orville, which is more Trek than Trek itself is.

                            The idea to do that, and more importantly the planning to have it on the air at the same time says a lot about MacFarlane.

                              I actually found myself laughing a bit in these last two episodes. I think subtle comedy and comedy that deals with timing is what works best for this show. I am really liking it. I certainly am looking forward to the next season even before this one is finished.

                                If your TV have WIFI and is connected to your home network, then it's easier then hdmi cable where you need to go to settings of your second screen every time you update graphics drivers.

                                I have 2 TV's at home and both are with WIFI and i just right click on a movie or tv show and click on the "cast to device"
