When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by season 2 I found myself loving this show.
To me it seems as every bit as comfy, intellectually interesting and even funny as some classic Star Treks while still clearly being its own thing. I wish more comfy space shows like this would get made.
What are your thoughts on The Orville? Also I miss Alara.
I named my kid after one of the characters.
...Bortus?
My son is also named Bortus
There is a law firm here named Bordas & Bordas. Every time I hear their radio ad, it sounds like they are saying "Bortus & Bortus" and I picture two Bortus-es (Borti?) arguing law and it just tickles my soul. I want so badly to photoshop one of their billboards...
We're going to need more license plates.
Extra #1
The name came to me during my ja'loja.
Sharona riff
Myyyy ja'loja!
I've been meaning to ask, how is Yaphitt Jr doing? Did they learn to walk/slime trail yet?
They're doing fine! Thanks for asking. Toilet training is... complicated though.
