The Orville keeps doing it. An expected conclusion to an earlier episode (5) and done with taste. They could've gone quite cheesy and more cringy, but they didn't. The writer did a good job with substance, not cringe.
The guest appearance was a giggle, and I felt this was a kind of a nose flick toward a Star Trek Discovery episode having the most definite cringiest guest appearance a show could ever put on any Sci Fi show, unless of course you're talking about Twilight Zone, or probably more appropriately, Creep Show. Then again it does fit on STD.
This episode does run long nearer to a movie length but it is appropriate given the content being covered. They could've made this a two part show but I didn't care as it wasn't filled with anything that didn't push the story along. I'm glad shows are beginning to see and give the opportunity to tell the story outside of the 'prescibed time frame', and let 'creativity' and 'story' be a Star in the show too.
The conclusion was especially touching and in this case what we hoped or predicted to come about, did. Also there was a lot of Adrianne Palicki in this episode and who can argue against that honey. Yeah, I have a crush, so what. : )
Cast, Crew, Writers another wonderful job. If it was up to me I'd green light The Orville for seasons 4 and 5 now.
