Golf Clap. They deserve more viewers, but SiFy doesn't draw that much. It's like the nerds don't want to watch it live on Fox. C'mon people, watch it on Thursday nights.
While we are still waiting for Season 3 of The Orville (December of 2019, Early 2020), there's a couple other shows to watch.
Farscape appeared on Prime in March of 2019. I'm watching it, an episode a night. This was made from 1999 - 2003. Farscape - Wikipedia
Great show considering it came out 20 years ago. 22 episodes a season, 90 total.
I finished Farscape. 88 episodes, and 2 full length movies to end it. Was it worth watching? Yes.

Has a happy ending. What I found is the good v. evil conflict repeated many times in the series. Meaning, the show would reach a point where the good people had won, yet another problem appears to keep the show going. Many cliff hanger endings with "To Be Continued." In fact, at the end of season 4, everything is wonderful, happy ending, only to have an alien blast the main characters turning them into crystals. That's why there were 2 movies to end the series. They didn't know it was cancelled at the end of season 4. So it ends with John, Aeryn, and their son being held up looking at the stars with total peace after John unleashes a worm hole weapon that would wipe out the galaxy. Both sides agree to a peace agreement, wonderful. But the entire thing could start over again, because it's always about good v. evil. There would be other bad guys in the universe even after the biggest factions make peace (like the USA, Russia, and China).
Two more days until the Expanse which will release on Dec 13th. All 10 episodes will be released at the same time. Some of you will binge, but I'll do one a week to drag it out. It kinda sucks that seasons are only 10 episodes these days, whereas Farscape had 22 episodes each season.
I like the 6-10 episode euro-style "series" format personally. It tightens up the writing substantially without all that filler one gets when trying to stretch an arc over 24 episodes.

Praise Avis. Perhaps they will go back to having a lot more comedy. Show was a lot better with dogs licking their balls in the background.

It's kinda weird, because in the article, Seth mentions that the 42 minute per show limits him. On Hulu that limit is gone because they're not running commercials. On the other hand, it's a bummer the show will no longer be on a national network (Fox). It means SyFi does not draw enough people for a major network. Yet there's going to be a new show on Fox of people building Legos. Are you kidding me?
Farscape had a bunch of 2 and even 3 part episodes, so he could have spread it out if he wanted to say more in one episode. .

I agree, the show leaned toward the SJW crap. It became the Bortus/Klyden soap opera with less eye candy (hot chicks).
So the Orville moves to Hulu, Seth hasn't even written everything, and we get a Lego show instead. Auuuugh. I'm sure Legoland must be happy, because this is like a free commercial for their parks.
Maybe I'll go back and watch previous episodes of the Expanse because I forgot most of it. At least the new episodes come out this Friday.
