Also, A Million Ways To Die In The West might be one of the worst things ever committed to film

It was basically a live action Family Guy.

It drags a little and feels more like a TV movie than something anybody would ever, in any universe, pay cinema prices to see, but it's not that bad.

Having Liam Neeson insisting on playing an Irish cowboy was worth it.

At least now we aren't completely hosed and it will be on Hulu tomorrow. Fox will have to find another way to gently caress this show, their old tactics aren't as effective.

It moves to its Thursday slot this week, so football will no longer be an issue.

Now I really need a toy or model of the ship to add to my spaceship collection. Because I think this show has legs and will stick around for at least two seasons.

It's an eclectic collection.

Same here. I have a bunch of Trek stuff and just got the Protector from Galaxy Quest.

I like the going-to-warp effect.

There was that episode where Riker fell in love with the woman from the androgynous race. That one ended similarly to tonight's episode of The Orville.

I think there was also a taste of "Half a Life" where the alien Major Winchester had to commit ritual suicide despite about to make a great scientific breakthrough.

Guess people were just tuning in because there was nothing else to watch on Sunday. Wonder how bad it's gonna get hammered next week.

I'm looking at next Thursday's schedule (network-wise) and it's up against this:

NBC - Will & Grace return & Great News season premiere
CBS - football - Bears vs Packers
ABC - second half of Grey's Anatomy season premiere (how the gently caress is this show still on?)
CW - Whose Line Is It Anyway? (one new ep & one repeat)

Obviously, football will dominate.
