Manakin Skywalker 4,894 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 I was randomly listening to the OST about an hour ago and decided to watch a scene on my DVD of Season 1. I realized while going through my files that I don't have a DVD of Season 2, and it dawned on me that a Season 2 DVD hasn't even been released yet. I looked it up on Google to see if there was any news about it, and it turns out that the Season 2 DVD is releasing in exactly one week from today. I had no idea. If I hadn't randomly been listening to the music today, which I haven't in quite a while, I would have completely missed this release. I'm surprised I haven't heard about it anywhere yet.

Wojo 2,453 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Why not just stream it on Hulu in hidef and use PlayOn to record mp4 files? It is legal if it's for your own use. Don't support the sale of the obsolete DVD format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert 475 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Clone Wars and Rebels were both released properly on Blu-ray, but with Disney+ I'm not so confident if the final CW season or Mando will get that treatment. It bothers me a lot that The Orville didn't get a Blu-ray release, but more so the fact that this doesn't bode well going forward and what this might mean for bonus material (which I'm a sucker for).

Pellaeon 593 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I finally talked my wife into watching The Orville with me (on Hulu). We are three episodes in. It’s not hilarious, it’s not super awesome, but, you know, it’s really likable. I feel I already know and enjoy the characters. I love the format of the show being an earnest throwback, with just the right amount of winking knowingness MacFarlane-style to say to the audience, “We know it’s a little silly, but we like it. Don’t you like it?” Especially since everyone says they work out the kinks in the equation and take it to interesting places, I’m excited to go on this adventure.

It gets funnier in some episodes over the course of season 1 (I can think of one or two absolutely hilarious moments off the top of my head), but not in a straight comedy way -- it's essentially Star Trek but with a little more humor. As for the super awesome...that comes in season 2 but I don't want to say any more. Yavar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 The show's tone and depth of the storylines now is near unrecognisable compared to the very first few episodes.

Manakin Skywalker 4,894 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I think it was all a trick by Seth to get Fox to sign on the show. He pitched it as a "sci-fi comedy" and planned to slowly transition it into more of a Star Trek-esque drama. At least that's how it comes across. And it worked out brilliantly.

If he'd pitched himself to be the straight man captain on a direct Next Generation homage, there's no way he would have gotten the greenlight. But a Seth MacFarlane comedy vehicle? Much easier to sell the Hollywood suits on. Brilliantly done on his part, and we only had to endure one or two relatively dumb early episodes.

Pellaeon 593 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Are they not done shooting? From what I can find out, they have been filming since October. There are 11 episodes in the season. They’re shooting on an 8-day schedule, or at least they were for Season 1. I figure worst case scenario they at most have 2 episodes left to shoot. Anyway, more time for the composers, right?

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 So different episodes will get different lengths now? Interesting. Does that happen often? My feeling says most streaming services still have episodes that are either 45 or 60 ish minutes or so. But then... I never did actually bother to check, so I might be all wrong. And they're re-recording the main title music? Why? Would they change it up a bit? Would the main title sequence be changed altogether now that they're on another 'network'? "Identity, Part 2" would be one of the SMALLER episodes this year? Wow! I like that they care about storytelling, but character-based storytelling. With a good sense of fun and adventure, while still having something to say. Definitely looking forward to this one making its return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert 475 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I'm pretty sure they mentioned the credits sequence to now be longer (since they are not confined regarding runtime) and thus recording an expanded version of it.

Literally every single show made directly for streaming services has varying lengths from episode to episode, same with shows made directly for pay cable channels like HBO or Showtime Structured episode lengths are literally only a thing for shows intended to be aired with commercials and forced into a 30 or 60 minute block Yavar Moradi and Pieter Boelen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon 593 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Finished Orville S1. Liked it. Up to Ep. 4 of S2. Not enjoying it as much. The show now strikes me as TOO character-driven. I still appreciate that the characters are likable and the episodes self-contained, believe me, I do. I just think the wonder of space is missing.
