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 think it is a very generic animated show, not much difference to other contemporary animated American TV shows, except the ST theme. Like in all of those shows, I can´t stand how fast they talk, always seems like I accidentally put playback speed to 1,5 and the jokes are just lame and not funny. Not for me, i´ll choose a re-watch of TNG or DS9 over it anytime.
I agree with the speed of the jokes.. they do slow it down after the first few episodes, but it's still fast as hell sometimes.
