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.
Wait until you watch Star Trek!
In all seriousness, Star Trek does an amazing job at this. It's a fully fleshed futuristic utopia. The many episodes and movies that go back in time are hilarious, as they show the dichotomy of future utopia and the "dark age" present in a great way.
