Very Good - Just Enough Humor, But Not Too Much

b5erik

The Orville is a great Star Trek spoof that plays it straight. Yes, it's a spoof, but the humor is subtle and not slapsticky (mostly). There is a great wit with the show, but the pilot had a good story and some great characters and was genuinely fun and even a little exciting in spots.

This is better than any Star Trek show since DS9, and has a similar style of humor to Arrested Development.

I am definitely looking forward to the rest of the series. This was fun!

score 9/10
