Just finished the pilot episode of The Orville. While not as funny as in was expecting and probably just above average it has potential to improve and with its tone will make a nice tonic to discovery which from all trailers looks very dark.
You can see that Seth really loves star trek and it comes across more of a homage than an outright spoof, its seems to be another show that critics dislike and the rest of us enjoyed it. At times I think critics hate fun!!
Will keep watching to see how it develops, also lets remember that most treks shows had a rocky first couple of seasons untill they found there feet.
But if you aren't a big fan of the humour of family guy and American dad I doubt this will change your mind.
