While it’s a coincidence that the season finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and The Orville: New Horizons’ sixth episode of season three in “Twice in a Lifetime” deal with time travel, there’s surprisingly no overlap between the two. In other news, Scott Grimes shows once again that he’s so much more than a funny face as Malloy revisits …
A Tale of Two Topas Review
The Orville third season is really starting to dig deep when it comes to controversial topics we see in the media on a daily basis. If you look back to season one of the Orville, we find that Bortus and Klyden have a child. The Moklin race are all males and reproduce by laying eggs and then having to gestate …
Orville Swtichback
Episode 4: Gently Falling Rain The Orville third season, New Horizons, has yet again given us a fantastic episode that teases a long future for Orville. When watching Sci Fi, it should challenge our preconceptions of the universe and what’s out there. Up until now we didn’t know what the Krill home world would show us; I’m sure, like me, …
The Crew of the Orville solve a mystery!
Episode 3: Mortality Paradox “To many humans, a mystery is irresistible. It must be solved.” Wise words from arguably the wisest of Captains in modern television history, Jean-Luc Picard. That is exactly what got the Orville crew into this week’s trouble, and to be honest, most of the trouble that The Orville or any space-faring show gets into is because …
The Planetary Union explores unknown space!
The premiere episode of The Orville: New Horizons truly showed why the popularity is so high for this show, especially amongst Star Trek fans. It was poignant and character-driven, but not without the trademark Seth MacFarlane humor and sense of adventure. While “Shadow Realms” has its share of darkness, it is a slow character burn for the entirety of the …
The XO explores the Planetary Union!
Space, the final frontier; these are the voyages of the USS Orville, a mid-level Exploratory-class vessel in the Planetary Union. Its mission, it seems, is to get in a whole heap of trouble and make us laugh, cry, and ask, “Where has the Orville been all my life?” Episode 1: Electric Sheep Season 3 of the Orville, the first season …

Mission Chicago Official Star Trek Convention Day 2
Time for Day 2 of Star Trek: Mission Chicago! I returned to the McCormack Place West Building. First up was going to the Main Stage Skyline Ballroom for the “Star Trek: Lower Decks Panel.” Everyone was given a raffle ticket that could be exchanged for an 11×17 mini-poster at the Merch booth after the panel. It was a wonderful panel, …
Mission Chicago Official Star Trek Convention Day 1
Friday, April 8, 2022 I have never been to Chicago before and was amazed by the impressive McCormick Place convention center. Star Trek: Mission Chicago was held in the West Building, and both the Marriott and Hyatt connect to it via Sky Bridges. While ReedPop put on one of two licensed conventions for Star Trek’s 50th anniversary in 2016, ReedPop …
QUEST FOR HONOR P:IV
Join us once again, warriors, as we continue our tale! Upon finally reaching the home world, our party made our way to House Vampyr’s great hall, where we celebrated my long-overdue return to Qo’nos. The next morning both K’tal and I were presented to the head of the house, Lord Vampyr; Captain K’Throg told the tale of our deeds on …
