I've seen the first two seasons and really liked them. I've been recording S3, but I haven't watched any episodes yet because they require some brain power and I have none to spare because toddler.
Personally, I think it's the best show on TV right now.
I want to watch ST: D (ha!), but that lame ass CBS streaming is preventing me.
I've seen most of The Orville. It's okay, but it definitely hasn't found its stride yet. It seems to teeter back and forth between being a serious sci fi show, preaching thinly veiled social justice, and toilet humor. I just can't help shake the feeling that the only reason it exists is because McFarlane wanted to be a space show. Also, the actors really are not that good..

I saw a LOT of bitching about the new Star Trek but the visuals are incredible and the storyline is really, really engrossing. I really feel like I am watching a movie with that show. The only legitimate complaint is the fact that they only released it on a CBS streaming platform.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
