Well, that’s far too colorful not to upvote.

I didn’t get the joke, then Wham! It hit me.
I’m trying not to make a scene on the train imagining Supes with an Emo cut and snapping his fingers at people.

Officer: “Forensics just came back, the two pieces are not a match. They belong to two separate victims.”
Grizzled detective: “Mother of god…”
Look up Hobbes & Bacon, a fan comic where Calvin and Susie got married, had a little girl, and now she runs around with Hobbes.
The deafening irony of writing all of that on a Volkswagen.
Seth MacFarlane tried to coax NBC Universal to buy Star Trek a few years ago.
Imagine that timeline.

The Orville season 1, episode 12 "Mad Idolatry"
Written by Seth MacFarlane, directed by Brannon Braga.
Commander Grayson, Lieutenant Malloy, and Isaac take a shuttle to an area near an uncharted star to investigate a spacial anomaly. Suddenly, the anomaly becomes an entire planet and the shuttle barely lands in one piece. While exploring the surface, Grayson discovers the planet is home to primitive humanoids. Despite Union regulation to stay out of sight, she gets spotted and has to heal a little girl who cuts her head on a rock in response to being startled. Thinking nothing of it, Captain Mercer writes the infraction off just as the planet suddenly disappears. When it reappears 11 days later, 700 years have elapsed on the surface and Grayson's simple act of kindness has evolved into an entire religion in her name.

The Orville season 1, episode 11 "New Dimensions"
Written by Seth MacFarlane, directed by Kelly Cronin.
After playing a practical joke on Yaphit (Norm Macdonald) during Chief Engineer Newton's going away party, Commander Grayson discovers that Lieutenant John LaMarr has a genius-level intellect and wants to place him in the running to be the new Chief Engineer. Captain Mercer initially objects but allows her to test his command abilities by letting him lead the team in charge of investigating a two-dimensional anomaly the ship almost crashed into. Their debate leads Mercer to discovering that Grayson, his ex-wife and acquaintance of Admiral Halsey (Victor Garber), may be the only reason he got command of the Orville in the first place. As he begins to question whether or not he was actually ready for command alongside LaMarr's reluctance to be in a command role in the first place, the Krill suddenly force the Orville into the unknown anomaly with no guarantee of escape.

The Orville season 1, episode 10 "Firestorm"
Written by Cherry Chevapravatdumrong, directed by Brannon Braga.
While navigating a dangerous plasma storm, the Orville takes serious damage. Chief Engineer Newton (Larry Joe Campbell) calls Alara down to Engineering to rescue a trapped crewman. Once down there, Alara freezes when a fireball blocks her path. When she comes to her senses, more debris falls and kills the man before she can reach him. Despite everyone's reassurance and forgiveness, Alara blames herself for his death and decides to quit her position as Chief of Security. Captain Mercer temporarily talks her down and suggests she do some soul searching to understand why she froze at the sight of fire. But just as she starts her investigation, unrealistic yet life-threatening encounters start plaguing her and the rest of the crew.

The Union sends an archeologist named Darulio (Rob Lowe) to the Orville to settle the dispute with a forensic analysis of an ancient artifact, not realizing that he has a checkered history with the Captain and Commander.

On one hand, Dragnet is copaganda. On the other hand, I love Jack Webb & Harry Morgan.
Starfleet would at least be much closer to the honorable law enforcement that Dragnet would have you believe the Los Angeles Police were.
