You are overthinking it :p Lorca is from the mirror universe, and he’s been plotting the jumps because he wants to go home. He overrides the jump (we see him control the jump) and says “Let’s go HOME”. I think Burnham is also key to a power play he will make in the mirror universe, because his interest in her makes no…

What if Lorca is originally from the Mirror Universe and his plan was to use the micro-jumps to not only defeat the Klingons, but to gather enough data to have them jump - the jump at the end - to the Mirror Universe so he could finally go home?

One million stars for the perfect usage of Event Horizon.

Somewhere, I have a promotional day poster from that era declaring Matt Nokes, Oscar Azocar and Roberto Kelly as the “Heroes of Tomorrow”. Those were dark days, my friends...

Same year that Hawkins, pitching for the Yankees, threw a no-hitter and lost 4-0.

Also, I know it’s supposed to be pronounced “para-demons”, but I can’t stop myself from reading it as “parade-mons”.

I can’t take a villain named “Steppenwolf” seriously. I keep expecting him to break out in a chorus of Born to be Wild.

So. Who wants to watch Thor again?

Danny Elfman Batman theme, just like he said it would be...!!!!

The Shooting Star Press was his finisher in developmental and the planned finish for that match. They improvised when Brock misjudged the distance.

Worst superpower is the one you never discover because it’s so mundane or the situation never arises. What if you could command wombats, but lived in North America, and only saw a wombat that one time you went to the zoo, and thought it was just kinda cute how it stared at you? What if one day you could breath…

Life of Pi?

Makes sense. Big Ben is Grumpy, Jay Cutler is Sleepy and their offensive line coach is Sneezy.

Those of us who came of age in 1991 knows damn well that “flulike symptoms” means AIDS

This is exactly what I was thinking when I read the review. I thought, “Doesn’t Beth understand the difference between sex and gender?” The sex of a baby isn’t a terrifically complex issue. And it’s a little early in the baby’s life to be having a conversation with it about it’s gender identity.

“Characterscontinually use the phrase “born female,” which is a reductive term that oversimplifies a complex issue, and no one is called out on it. The gender spectrum is never addressed. Everything is presented as male or female, with no mention of other forms of gender identity (even though the show takes place…

I have to watch the episode, but in my opinion, when you swing for the fences sometimes you strike out.

What happened to applauding the effort? Was that not a negative enough endpoint for the review? When did io9 decide ridicule must punctuate articles like this? We will never get TNG season 8, so let the Orville be assessed on its own merits, not your expectations of the people involved.
