After three years, one month and eight days,
the Orville is finally back and oh boy, was it worth the wait
at a very TV 48 minutes during season two,
the Orville new horizons is rocking more than an hour long mini movies for their
third season.
After such a long wait in between seasons and rumors that the show was ending.
A lot of people thought season three would come and the Orville would fade into
science fiction history.
But after getting an early peak into what the Orville production team has in
store for us, nothing could be further from the truth.
The Orville isn't a tired, old train, struggling to get up its final hill.
It's a roaring full speed ahead. Locomotive, screaming down the tracks,
crushing current star Trek and star wars.
As the hollow shells of science fiction, they've become.
So if you think this is the end of the Orville,
don't count your science fiction chickens before they hatch the Orville is back
bigger and better than ever before.
And we are going to show you why we think this is only the beginning.
So you don't wanna miss this episode.
Also make sure you stay tuned until later in the show where we are excited to
show you why Nord pass is going to change the way you manage your online
passwords. And if you haven't already subscribed to our channel,

If you're watching this and you haven't seen electric sheep,
the first episode of the Orville new horizons, be aware that spoilers are ahead.
Go ahead and pause it here. We'll wait.
For stateside viewers. It's available on Hulu and for everyone in Canada,
the UK and other places overseas, it will be available on Disney plus.
and as a sci-fi fan,
if you are on the fence on whether to pay for another streaming service,
this is what we'll say, cancel everything else. If you have to,
because episode one is just the tip of the iceberg.
We've seen what else is coming. And we are not blowing smoke up your butts.
We've covered almost every science fiction show out in the last few years.
And none of them come even close to what we are about to see in season three of
the Orville. I know what some people are saying if this season is so good,
why did it take so long to make? And why does it seem to be on its final season?
It did take a long time to make, and while it was awful to have to wait,
you are going to be so glad they took their time.
When we say this is like 10 mini movies, we aren't joking.
Each one of these episodes feels like a movie. There is a huge score,
incredible special effects in imagery, bigger and newer sets, more action.
And it's just better in every way.
And why does it seem like this is going to be the final season of the Orville?
Yes. At this time, there is no season four planned, but hold onto that thought.
And before we show you the path to the Orville renewal,
let's first show you why electric sheep was the perfect episode to launch season
three.
The first episode of new horizons is a grand sweeping display of a larger
and more impressive Orville universe, complete with a new bridge,
enormous engine room, and gorgeous new toys for Gordon to play with.
But this first episode did something more than reintroduce us to the world.
We've missed. It dealt directly with important issues that were left,
vague and unanswered during season two, following identity part two,
and the epic space battle between the Klan and the union Isaac's role in
deceiving ed and the crew,
which led to untold deaths and nearly the destruction of humanity was left
untold.
When ed argued to have Isaac reinstated,
there must have been others who didn't agree,
including members of the Orville crew.
Following the Kaylon battle. Season two would still have another five episodes.
And we weren't going to address Isaac enter Ensign Charlie Burke for season
three, but before we show you why Charlie is critical to new horizons,
let me quickly tell you why you are going to love this video sponsor Nord pass
with Ensen Burke played by the lovely Anne Winters.
We learned that the fair-haired Ensign now at the helm next to Gordon has an
Isaac problem. Burke's best friend on her previous ship.
The USS Quimby was killed during the Kaylon attack and she's holding a grudge,
but it's not just her.
It seems most of the crew has a problem with Isaac and won't even sit with him
in the mess hall.
Even Marcus is now afraid and angry with Isaac.
The episode leads with an epic,
amazing reoccurring nightmare that Marcus is having.
It's also important to note here that BJ Tanner who plays Marcus has completely
come into his own.
And during this first episode has made the leap from Dr.
Claire's kid to a future top build co-star Tanner shows,
years of growth in Marcus.
And we are blessed with an emotional and powerful performance from him.
Marcus tells Isaac, he hates him and wishes. He were dead.
And Isaac then terminates himself.
The underlying theme of this episode is suicide.
And whether someone has the right to take their own life or not,
John Lamar has a philosophical debate with a new spiky alien bedmate,
who explains that,
where she's from people were never given the choice to be born.
So they are allowed to take their own life if they so choose
John vehemently disagrees,
but something she says gives him an idea about how he might revive Isaac.
This was another important moment for the third season and we are so glad they
addressed it early.
Lamar played wonderfully by Jay Lee rose to become the chief engineer of the
Orville because of his genius level aptitude. But to be fair,
we hadn't really seen his genius level intellect at work,
unless it was interwoven to some sort of punchlines. In this first episode,
we see the genius that is John Lamar,
and we see exactly why he's in charge of keeping the ship operating.
Both the Isaac and John Lamar holes are filled quickly in the first episode of
season three it's as if Seth and his team said,
where are we weakest going into new horizons?
And how do we fix them and pave the way for the rest of the season?
Charlie Burke's new character on the ship is exactly what the crew needed.
It was important that an outsider become Isaac's counterbalance and moral
dilemma. As most of the main players didn't seem to have a big issue with Isaac
maintaining his position on the ship.
Burke would disobey direct orders from captain Mercer and be relieved of duty
before being approached by a guilt ridden.
Marcus who feels like Isaac's death is his fault.
Burke ends up assisting Lamar and reviving Isaac to the delight of his friends,
but she makes a point to tell him I didn't do it for you.
It's obvious that this conflict intention between the two characters will
continue, will Burke come to terms with her hate for Isaac,
or will she find out he's still a ticking Kaylon time bomb?
This story will be very interesting to watch.
We also have the added conflict with Claire trying to determine whether she is
still in love with Isaac.
The first episode ended very strong and the fact that we didn't want it to end
is a good sign. As we've seen the future already,
all we can say is we don't think you'll be disappointed.
And this leads us to one of the most important questions in a landscape of
fairly disappointing science fiction today.
What needs to happen to keep a great show on the air?
Everything we can determine from the Orville team is that,
although there currently isn't a renewal.
That doesn't mean that it's not going to happen.
Seth wants to keep doing it.
And we know the actors in the crew wanna keep making the show.
So what's holding it back. Well, frankly speaking, it's us
Hulu. And to some degree,
Disney needs to see that this show is going to be profitable.
So as fun as watch parties are, it's better for the future of the Orville.
If everyone watches it from their own streaming subscription.
And if you love the Orville and want more of it,
tell a friend it's amazing how many people we speak to every day who have never
even heard of the Orville. Then they watch it and they're hooked. Unfortunately,
Hulu isn't the go-to streaming service that Netflix paramount plus HBO
and Disney plus have become
not as many people are going to accidentally run into this show.
So we need to let as many people know as possible and make sure you don't forget
to sign the renewal petition at renewtheorville.org.
We need a lot more signatures there and we can promise you,
Seth and Hulu executives are going to raise their eyebrows and interest.
If we can get enough signatures,
surely if Amber Turd can get 4 million signatures to have her removed from
Aquaman,
we can get the same number of signatures so that we have more seasons of the
best science fiction show available today.
But it's up to us to spread the word. What do you think.
was the first episode of the Orville season three worth the wait?
do you like the new member of the cast and winters?
What do you think of BJ Tanner's performance?
Are you going to sign the petition for more Orville?
