Azalin Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I already had low expectations for the upcoming Star Trek series. http://ew.com/tv/2017/09/07/star-trek-discovery-trump-political-divide/ I give it less than a season before viewership tanks. The second season will be branded as finding their niche. Third season will come from brand recognition. Then it will Trump's fault they cancelled Star Trek I've always been a Trek nerd, but I suspect that I'm going to like The Orville more than I'll like Discovery.

DC Tom Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I'm really hoping the Orville is going to deliver too. I'm hesitant about it, as science fiction and satire is a tough combination to pull off in serial form. But I'll give it an honest try... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azalin Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I'm with you both there. It isn't great that the early reviews haven't been too kind. But I'm holding out hope. I'm way more optimistic about it than I am about Discovery. As far as I know, none of the old Trek people are involved at all, and everyone seems to want to put their own spin on the Trek universe and canon. I find it amusing that after referring to the previous shows as TOS, TNG, DS9, STV, and STE that Discovery will be STD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keukasmallies Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Portrayal is surely the correct word to describe the MSM's approach to many things that could/should be news here in the US.

Nanker Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 (edited) CBS used color adjustments to make Steve Bannon look bad. “It seems like 60 minutes would like you to listen less and look more at Steve Bannon. By subtly tweaking the color of the video, they make him look like a bleary-eyed drunk. I show you how they did it,” writes Duke on the video’s YouTube page.

No love for the guy at all on my end, but the color alterations last night were pretty obvious. Not sure it was necessary considering what most of the country already thinks of him.
