I think it’s watchable. I’ll continue with it as long as it doesn’t get too silly. There was one line near the end that just floored me. Those of you that watched it probably know the one I mean… ☺
I loved “The Orville”. I thought it was better than Star Trek ever was and it isn’t communist propaganda. And by that I mean, the characters work and have to pay for things, its not all free and they don’t get food with the press of a button. I hope enough people watch to let it develop and grow.

Isn’t being derivative the point of it?

While I’m sure his fans will enjoy the show, Seth MacFarlane just doesn’t make me laugh.

Wasn’t MacFarlane the guy who said that nobody laughs at Looney Tune cartoons? Too much ego and not enough humor.

MacFarlane is a hack. I doubt that he has ever had an original idea, ever.
We all know where he stole the idea for Ted, don’t we?

I remember a similar show back in the 80’s, a sci-fi parody called Quark. It starred Richard Benjamin and was a pretty funny takeoff on Trek.

Of course it was derivative. The first half of the show was a deliberate tribute to Star Trek.

Good grief… Sal’s red tie is even longer than Trump’s!

Anything with McFarlane goes right on my must miss list.
