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.
Star Trek Producer: "This guy is trying to out-startreck us" proceeds to make Strange New Worlds to retaliate
I'm pretty sure this is exactly what happened.
And you will not see me complaining. SNW is the best Trek of recent times.
I never laughed so much in a Star Trek episode as I did at last Thursday's episode. That was absolutely not expected lol.
