Your thoughts on The Orville?
(lemmy.world)
When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by season 2 I found myself loving this show.
To me it seems as every bit as comfy, intellectually interesting and even funny as some classic Star Treks while still clearly being its own thing. I wish more comfy space shows like this would get made.
What are your thoughts on The Orville? Also I miss Alara.
I still haven't watched it. I think I might be done with Trek. There's just been too much damage in the last decade with those godawful jj abrams movies, discovery, picard, blech. It's clear to me the franchise has moved in a different direction and we'll always have tng and ds9, but I just can't follow it anymore.
