I want to catch up on the new episodes they've been making. I wonder if they're any good.

This series seems to get better every episode. Loved the last one...characters were spot on and the plot was cool. Standing on the shoulders of the next generation.

I dont normally go for this type stuff. I am not a Trekkie or a Star Wars fanboy but I like this show. It moves along fast has some humor makes you think with a moral to the story. I hope they can keep it up without going off the rails because as it is now its a winner.

I've watched 1 ep beyond that one (perhaps 2 - when did the "Blue man" show up again?) and it was by far the worst.

So far, to me at least, this is a very ST-NG show with comedy added.

I think it does a good job of pointing out social issues ST might run into, while confronting our own, and NOT taking a preachy side.

Watched the first 3 episodes on my phone last night before I ran out of data. I enjoyed it.

Okay, I’m sure Seth MacFarlane sold Fox on “The Orville” by telling them it would be “like ‘Galaxy Quest’ but raunchy”. But instead he’s made a show that’s both funny as well as thought provoking and intelligent and as scientific as any “Trek”. The season ender was hilarious and horrifying and allegorical and scientifically out-there all at once, and still had room for human emotion. Compared to his other works like “Ted” and “Family Guy”, this show is like if Weird Al wrote a symphony to rival Beethoven’s 5th.

Star Trek has always been a "morality tale", which is why the Abrams produced movies and even Enterprise have missed the mark.
Your second point is what more people need to realize. Star Trek isn't a "run around shoot 'em up" kind of franchise. I am intrigued but worried about this Tarantino project that may get off the ground.

Unrelated to your comment, but I wanted to hate The Orville because I'm really not entertained by most of SM's humor, but the show has some great writing and characters despite some stupid sophomoric jokes. I will agree that there are a few low brow jokes that do hit the mark pretty well.

I know this will appear nitpicky to most, but I really wish they would have explained that Ed and Gordon met during a history class of the late 20th century or something. Most of the jokes are based on pop culture from this era, after all.

I'm amazed how much LESS SJW is in the Orville than the new ST series.

To me, this looks like TNG with humor. Well, MORE humor...

I’m not really loving it yet. It’s good enough to keep watching and hoping it gets better. I haven’t really developed much connection with any of the characters yet.
