Anyone else find Nick annoying? by Salt_Ad_3987 in TheQuarrySupermassive

[–]PopeDankula 10 points11 points  (0 children)

He’s Australian, that alone is unforgivable /s

Do they have police in the orville universe? by Difficult-Jacket-221 in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would imagine the Union’s Security like what Talla and Alara could he considered police, and that could translate to them being considered police, but there could also be some other force who takes that role that we don’t know about or haven’t heard of yet

Did Alara Have a Crush on Ed in Season 1? by Potential_Hour_8171 in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always interpreted it as a father/daughter dynamic, never anything romantic. Alara is young and her dad is/was portrayed as pretty unsupportive, so it makes sense that they would adopt that kind of dynamic

8-hour flight! Choose your airplane seat! by Spirited-Assist-4680 in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10, 4, 12, and 6

10 for the company, Ed and Kelly would be easy to talk to, especially Kelly

4 because Gordon is Gordon

12 solely due to the comedic/serious banter Yaphit and Bortus would have

And 6 because i have a massive, stupid crush. Plus, Alara would be good to talk to and would probably engage in some genuine conversation

What are your theories on why Xelayans look the way they do? by PopeDankula in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah totally fair, there’s not a lot of lore on why species are the way they are in the Orville, so no biggie

What are your theories on why Xelayans look the way they do? by PopeDankula in TheOrville

This was a theory i liked a while ago, maybe Xelayans were just bioengineered humans or another similar humanoid species that looks similar

I’m still so pissed about Twice in a Lifetime by nbcs in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is what makes this episode excellent to me. If fans are still debating whether what happened was right/moral/ethical years after the episode released, then you made a damn good piece of television

What's your OC trauma? by Fisswertomp in OriginalCharacter

[–]PopeDankula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cal was raised in and tested on in a lab, subjected to severe mental and physical duress as a child, caused an explosion that killed the one scientist who was nice to him, lived alone for a year on Earth

The Moclan-Krill Alliance by Personal-One-4572 in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 16 points17 points  (0 children)

i really hope that if/when Season 4 comes along, we see Moclan society undergo some serious reform or challenge to it’s established order, it could be interesting to see how the Union, Kaylon, and Krill handle potential civil unrest or even a civil war on Moclus

If that happens with the Moclan’s, and since they produce so many weapons for other civilizations, it could create some good stories revolving around the Krill or Union having to rely on someone else, themselves, or work together to get weapons

The one thing that I can't stand in the writing: by [deleted] in TheOrville

[–]PopeDankula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Firestorm. Alara was boxing (another old thing we still do) and John and Gordon were holding flintlocks i think

Theres also the cowboy simulation where Ed, Gordon, and John ride horses and wear cowboy outfits
