Was terrible. Big flop, but Seth’s already made his money.
(file photo?)
Doesn’t even sound appealing.
Absolutely nothing redeeming about the show
Waste of bandwidth
I watched it, I wasn’t expecting much but it was not horrible at all- I don’t understand the reviews here.
I know he is a flaming libtard, so that makes it hard to judge him fairly in some peoples minds.
I will watch it again. I hope to re-catch this episode because I missed some of it due to a work phone call.
The reviews I read said it is not a comedy.
It was horrible. It could have been good, but they started with a lousy premise, weak plot, one-dimensional characters, and it was just not funny. Huge fail.
I enjoyed it. lot of character building this episode. Might find it’s way to get better.
Like the terrible movies lately, sequels of remakes because no one has any creativity or dares to dream bigger than the welfare paradise-prison they seek to build. Here kids, a show your parents enjoyed, except with our ham-fisted doses of liberalism and western shame.
I sat through 40 minutes, waiting for it to become funny. Hopefully, whoever greenlit this is going to be applying at Starbucks by Friday.
Adrienne Palicki deserves a better show...
It isn't funny, special effects are awful, and the captain is whiny.
Was funny, but was nothing like Star Trek. “Inspired by,” sure, but completely different. It did not take itself seriously.
It needs to be 30 minutes not an hour
I’ve been a trekkie of sorts for forever. That means watching it when it was mediocre as well as superb. When I saw the promo for the new series I instantly knew that this would be as close as I would ever come to watching it.
Screw MacFarlane
Did not expect much from it, but I did watch. It was rather sluggish, not any real laugh-lines, but was tolerable.
Will watch another episode or two to see how it goes. It doesn’t have competition in that timeslot.
It seemed more of a spoof of the 60s sci-fi.
I’ll give it a torrent to get it out of my system.
It wasn’t good. Bad acting, bad characters, boring story, odd humor placement, tons of oddly missed humor placement (which, I think, proves that Seth doesn’t understand humor but merely extends his drunk frat boy schtick and goes for shock jokes)
Can’t decide if it’s a drama, sci-fi show or a comedy.
But... i managed to watch it all without wretching. I’m willing to give it a few more episodes to see if it works out but just barely.
There was a Dallas Cowboy game on at the same time.
Not a good time to start a new series.
On a 60 TV screen the visuals were very nice. The show moved slowly and had a lot of characters who were imitations of previous types from previous shows. All in all the new Star Trek was acceptable and entertaining. Right after Star Trek I watched the DVD of part 2 Gaurdians of the Galaxy. Gaurdians moved at a faster pace and was reasonably entertaining. $2.16 for blue-Ray at Red Box. The new Star Trek is free. I will keep watching it. Many of the Freepers are hate mongers and will try to destroy just about anything. I expect the Orville to be mildly entertaining.
OK I watched some of the new Fox Science Fiction show somewhat based on Star Trek called The Orville. Bad? Awful! Let’s call it Star Trek for morons. The set looks a little like a Grade School cafeteria and that is where they recruited the writers and some of the actors.
