Alf, Third Rock from the Sun, the list goes on.

I guess in my mind I didn't really categorize those as sci-fi comedies... more just sitcoms with alien characters.

Which is totally what I expected from The Orville based on the trailers.

Those first several movie like episodes I watched way back on cable (maybe Cinemax) before the sci-fi channel show were particularly great. At the time was so weird and amusing.

Or how about a non-corny sci fi comedy...https://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media...honybylumb.jpg

I did too, after I was done with it. While I was watching it I thought it was pushing the "super preachy" boundaries, but after it was over I felt it was more of a critique of today's society and how people get flamed for not falling into lock step with the popular opinion of the moment. Solid episode.

I’ve chosen to “unplug” from Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

I actually feel a tangible difference since doing so, as I’m no longer constantly bombarded with opinions that I didn’t request.

And yet CP has decided to go Upvote/Downvote.

Irony at its finest.

Orville renewed

Now that I'm unbanned I can contain the bulk of my political discussion to DC, and I tend to keep my Facebook stuff upbeat, happy and (mostly) non-offensive. I simply unfollow people who can't keep annoying shit to themselves, and hide anything I don't care to see, and generally refrain from venturing outside my little safe zone. There are probably less than a dozen people that I regularly interact with there.

Never did Instagram, and I ****ing loathe Twitter.

I feel like I know most of them too.

Red Drawf is/was Awesome.

Now that The Orville has been officially renewed for Season 2, I need to catch up on the last few episodes.

Good enough to keep watching.

I am surprised.

I loved the Dr's...

Well, if last night’s episode *wasn’t* an episode of TNG...
