Japanese Orville by Gibson has made some great guitars, at least the Les Pauls. I'd not familiar with the acoustic made guitars though.

Thanks for reminding me of that. Norm was great.

Ok, I watched the first show. Ok, decent. I'll watch more.

I do enjoy the show and am looking forward to the next season. However, while I can watch Star Trek episodes over and over again. I have no desire to rewatch episodes of the Orville after I've seen it.

Season 3 of the Orville came out a couple of days ago. It's called "The Orville: New Horizons" now and the new season (season 3) is on Hulu and available on Amazon Prime. Looks like 1 new episode a week.

I haven't watched the new episode yet... I think I'll wait a couple of weeks until more come out. Looking forward to it!

Loved the first two seasons. I tried to find the 3rd season on Amazon Prime but no luck. I guess I'll have to pay more and get Hulu. Darn.

I have it on Amazon Prime Canada. Hulu is not available in Canada so perhaps that is the reason why?

I've been watching the animated series American Dad since I picked up Disney Plus. It's another one of Seth McFarlane's shows (like the Family Guy and Orville). He voices the lead character in the show. Seth is an amazing voice over artist.

Seth has a net worth of $300M... wow.

I finished watching Season 3. Great series and this season the episodes are long averaging about 75 minutes (some episodes shouldn't have been that long).

The second to last episode "Domino" is going to be a classic. Great battle scenes and story line. NO SPOILERS.

I googled Season 4 but it's not certain it will happen. Seth MacFarlane said it's 50/50 that the show will go on. It just dropped on Disney+ in the US (that's where I watched it in Canada) so they're hoping the increased market will lead to more fans and a renewal of the series.

I caught up and watched the entire series. I liked it. Some of the endings were rushed in the first season with some things that were swept under the carpet, but otherwise a good show.

I have really enjoyed the show. Just finished the last one. I do hope they renew for a 4th season.

I've been avoiding it because I can take only very little of the cheesy moralising overtones in the usual Star Trek material (which somehow underline how non-sci the fi is). Not the case here?

Like Star Trek, there are morality episodes.

Especially after it switched to Disney, found it to be much more entertaining and not so silly as the first two seasons. Now has a plot line I could enjoy.
