The Orville Season 2 Release Date, Cast, Trailer, and News

New Post At https://sciencefiction.site/the-orville-season-2-release-date-cast-trailer-and-news/ -


FOX engaged the quantum drive for The Orville season 2 as a renewal for Seth MacFarlane’s unique space drama was confirmed back in November, halfway through the successful first season. “Once again Seth has struck a powerful chord with viewers,” said Fox Broadcasting Co. Entertainment president Michael Thorn in a press release. “He has delivered a series full of optimism, drama and his trademark humor. We want to thank him and the rest of the talented cast, as well as the producers and crew, for an incredible first season. We can’t wait to see where The Orville travels in the second.”


The Orville had a rough start with critics, inviting comparisons to Star Trek: The Next Generation and airing in tandem with CBS All Access’ new Star Trek: Discovery. Fans have engaged in spirited debate about the nature of the comedic homage to the classic science fiction inspiration, but the end result has been a dedicated viewership, no matter what the critics think.


Here’s everything we know so far…

The Orville Season 2 Release Date


The Orville Season 2 premiere will not be ready for a fall 2018 release and is instead happening on Sunday, December 30. Fox’s schedule is all messed up because of Thursday Night Football, hence the delay. The second season will have at least 14 episodes, though. “I’d rather do fewer episodes and have them be better content-wise than do 22 and have them be filler,” MacFarlane is quoted as saying by TVGuide.com.



The Orville Season 2 Cast


According to Deadline Chris Johnson of 47 Meters Down will be appearing in a recurring role. Specific details about his character are not known, but he will play another crew member aboard the ship.


Season 2 also has Gossip Girl alum Jessica Szohr joining the cast, according to Deadline. Again, not much is known about her character other than that she will be a crew member aboard the Orville, but Szohr will be a series regular, so she definitely will be adding a new dynamic to the series.


EW has reported that Leighton Meester will join former Gossip Girl co-star Jessica Szohr in a season 2 role that is currently being kept under wraps.


More news as we hear it!


The Orville was created by Seth MacFarlane, who also stars in the show as Captain Ed Mercer. Adrianne Palicki (Agents of SHIELD) plays his ex-wife and first officer. Check out our reviews for season 1 here.

Apple and Amazon Don"t Need to Buy Hollywood

New Post At https://sciencefiction.site/apple-and-amazon-dont-need-to-buy-hollywood/ - This week’s AT&T-Time Warner  court ruling  was the starter pistol for the sale of  anything and everything  in the entertainment industry. There are two questions relevant to the technology industry: Will Silicon Valley do the buying? And should it? I can’t answer the first question because acquisitions are unpredictable. (See Amazon plus a supermarket chain .) On the second query: Debatable, but probably not. A continuing  deal frenzy by media, entertainment and telecom companies is a reaction to Netflix Inc., YouTube, Facebook Inc. and other online hangouts absorbing more of people’s time and money. Tech companies should stand on the sidelines of this desperate reshuffling that they caused.  Wasting Time Television remains Americans’ favorite leisure activity, but smartphones have started to consume more of people’s time.

Books: Theodore Sturgeon"s overlooked centenary plus reviews and book news

New Post At https://sciencefiction.site/books-theodore-sturgeons-overlooked-centenary-plus-reviews-and-book-news/ - This year is Theodore Sturgeon’s centenary, and if you’re wondering “who?,” you’re not alone. Once widely read (and still beloved in some science fiction communities, as a few on Twitter pointed out to me) Sturgeon no longer has the name recognition of contemporaries Ray Bradbury and Isaac Asimov . Like Harlan Ellison , he wrote for the original “Star Trek” — we have him to thank for Spock saying “live long and prosper” — but it’s his fiction, particularly his short stories, that should put him in the pantheon , writes Scott Bradfield, who was once Sturgeon’s neighbor in Silver Lake.

New Post At https://sciencefiction.site/superman-to-the-fonz-vintage-lunchbox-collection-on-sale/ - By Dan Sewell Associated Press CINCINNATI — Look, up on the shelf! It’s Superman. There’s the king of the wild frontier himself, Davy Crockett. And over in that case is Davy Crockett again, except this time he’s Daniel Boone. And aaaaay! It’s The Fonz and the whole “Happy Days” family! A veteran auctioneer has on display a baby boomer delight: hundreds of vintage lunchboxes featuring the heroes of their childhood comic books, TV shows, cartoon strips, movies and more. “I’ve never had anything like this,” said J. Louis Karp, whose family-run business has been part of Cincinnati since the first years after the Civil War. “This is quite different.” Sure, you can go to any number of websites to buy old metal lunchboxes from the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s. But to see 250 of them in the same place, to be able to pick them up, and then spot one just like mom packed for you with a peanut butter-and-j
