    Console best movie i've ever seen.
    ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
    AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
    steve-94389 It's a great mix of star trek with occasional Macfarlane comedy. Good story lines. The cretics don't know what there talking about. Good stuff
    Charles Demers Pretty much what'd you expect. Almost a 1:1 carbon copy of Star Trek, with an unneeded and unwanted "romantic" element, and old tired jokes.
    westwing-34978 The title basically sums up my views. I enjoy this series but the anti-religion episodes are off putting.
    InCole I don't enjoy everything that Seth MacFarlane has worked on but he has really outdone himself on this one. The cheesy comedy fits right in and he doesn't overdo it. At the same time of the cheesy comedy the foundation of the show is written and directed like a proper Star Trek series.The feeling of mystery, the feeling of danger and feeling of joy is all in The Orville and in fact, while I enjoy Star Trek Discovery it somehow doesn't have that Star Trek feeling it is lacking something in the writing. But Orville has captured that feeling fully and feels no different from watching the original series, Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, etc...In fact if I were to draw similarities I'd say it reminds me most of Deep Space Nine as some of the humour and jokes are similar and the way it is written the good guys are not blatantly good and instead everything becomes more shades of grey in some episodes.I am sad that the "professional" critics have slammed this show - but then again professional critics seem to have something against Seth MacFarlane they always slam things that he has worked on - maybe he has done something to personally insult them all once, I don't know. But there definitely is a grudge there.I just hope this show can continue as I really enjoy it and it brings back such fond memories of the days when we had Star Trek TV shows. As sadly while Discovery is enjoyable to watch it just doesn't feel like a Star Trek show.
