  • Frakes has directed two Orville episodes (so far), and arguably brought his experience over to SNW, as Boims and Mariner were fan[boy|girl]ing about, it had serious “Orville” vibes to it. I don’t think they could have picked a better director.

    The bit where Ortegas and Uhura were gushing about the NX-01 crew and suddenly realizing that’s why their guests were gushing was priceless.

    “What would come after the dash?”

    And both Jack and Tawny crushed it as the live action versions of their characters. (Both were over-the-top, and that was the point).

    I wonder if that “Riker!” Gag was improvised and if so, how long it had Frakes (and/or the crew) laughing.

    The LD-style intro was chefs kiss perfect. The coda was, likewise, a perfect capstone.
