Of all the episodes so far, this was certainly one of them.

Curse these wretched beats for actually making this one bearable.

Best short so far, which is very low bar to clear.

Yea, that’s kind of painful.

I feel so talked down to by these. They’re even more unfunny/more quippy than the first season of Orville, and that’s saying something.

Why can’t some writers these days not just let something absurd be played straight and let the viewers laugh? Why do we need a character explaining the joke out loud? “Uh-oh, that alert isn’t part of the song! Guyss!” How to ruin a decently funny situation in one easy step.

Imagine if movies like “The Naked Gun”/“Police Squad” or “Airplane!” made the characters explain and comment on every funny moment.

It’s like someone made a Star Trek parody for Adult Swim in the mid 2000s and it somehow got left on the shelf for seventeen years before being recently discovered. That whole, take old cartoon footage and redub it was huge back then.

Is it just me, or did they start with the worst one and get progressively better? Both last week and this week have been actually good

I agree. They should have led with this. Or maybe only did this.

Though I do feel like this and last week’s were missing a punchline at the end.

Neelix is all the punchline you need.

maybe they’re doing the star trek thing of having bad/meh early episodes, just on a more compressed time scale. (yeah it’s subjective, but I certainly liked these ones a lot more than the first ones).

I liked this one, just some wholesome series-to-series love wrapped up in a goofy package. A very Lower Decks feel. The Prodigy erasure continues to be a thing but I don’t think that’s ending anytime soon.

And if heavens forbid this is the last Star Trek thing George Takei does at least it’s on the same fun retrospective note as he had in his Crisis Point II appearance.

There were Prodigy characters in last week’s short…

NuPNuA ,

Yeah, but at the end of each one it proudly announces that Animated Trek only consists of LD and TAS.

Edit: Just finished and this one was actually really funny!

“Maybe you move TOO MUCH” lol

Agreed! I loved this one. This week and last week were great. Slowly stepped up in quality. I love how offended Scotty looked when Tendi pointed out his pupils are painted onto his skin.
