Episode #85 Executive Producer Brannon Braga on the writing of Season Three of The Orville.

On this special episode Of Postcards, I am stoked to welcome
Writer, Producer, and director Brannon Braga. His first job in
Hollywood was writing for Star Trek the Next Generation before
being the showrunner of Voyager and Enterprise. He also wrote two
films in the Star Trek franchise. In all, he had his name on more
than 150 hours of Star Trek. A three-time Emmy nominee Braga is
currently working on The Orville and Cosmos.


In episode 23 we chatted about his underrated adaptation of Clive
Barker’s classic anthology series Books of Blood and Clive Barker
in general. Brannon is first and foremost a writer and I enjoy
getting under the hood of his projects and talk craft and
process.


In this episode Brannon and I talk about Orville season three, we
drill down on his episodes but there is tons of valuable insight
into the season and the show in general. We talk about writers
patience, The transgender storylines, writing for Dolly Parton,
Sacrifice for ideals, not saving your life, Bortus, and Klyden
reunion, and writing huge battles. Also at the very end, Brannon
comments on the Filmationwriters' style Voyager video of his
episode Threshold, and the ongoing debate about Tuvix.
