The Orville - 7/10 - A few laughs, kinda of a fan boyish tribute to Star Trek. Has potential.

The Deuce- Starting the first episode now. Show by the guys who did The Wire. Really hoping this is good.
 
The Orville was alright, kept my interest but it wasn't great by any means. I'll still watch the next episode, I could see myself sticking it out for the entire season even if I start losing interest.
 
The Orville's humor is very droll. Some of it made me laugh, some of it not so much.

I watched the first episode of The Orville I like it. A mix between Star Trek and Galaxy Quest...fun to watch....plus I'm a fan of Seth McFarlane's brand of comedy
 
Idk man, I'm not a Star Trek fan but that trailer looked real bad. Not to mention they're sticking it on their CBS app that you have to pay for just to watch.

Yeah thats going to alienate (get it) a lot of fans. There is going be a lot less viewers. They may have to ultimately air it on tv
 
Anybody watching The Sinner on USA? Don't ever watch that channel, but this show has been fantastic.
 
I really enjoyed The Orville. But I also love Seth's sense of humor haha
 
I am trying not to start any new shows. I'm juggling too many right now, but I sat down and started watching The Sinner with my wife and it kicks ass...... I think it's just a one time 8 episode miniseries which is perfect.
 
Watched it, not so impressed..his humor is the same on everything he does. Feels like I have already seen the show....
 
Anyone watch Star Trek STD? I heard it wasn't very good.
 
I'm excited for Will and Grace this week.

Other than that, Cable can go fuck itself.
 
Just finished watching episode 3 and the new Star Trek is fucking awesome! Very dark, very original.

Did you enjoy it? I was disappointed. Felt like the show was more about Trump than about the characters.
 
Did you get the CBS stream or only watch the 1st episode? CBS is fucking stupid for doing that. Maybe it's by design.... :dry:

No, I did not get the CBS stream.

Yes, I've seen all 3 episodes.

It still amazes me that people don't understand how the internets work.

I -really- enjoyed it, but for a different reason than the Trump stuff (I mean, its topical, so it makes sense. They always did topical).

The reason why I enjoyed it so much is it wasn't campy... it didn't do the whole "lets introduce one character at a time" It was just will and grace... Jack and Karen just doing what they always did. Shenanigans. It just felt like the old TV show. I expected the politic stuff, but I really, REALLY did not want it to be just a campy 1st episode... so it really succeeded in that.

And also, it was really freaking funny.
 
Been watching Big Mouth on Netflix I think.

Pretty funny new adult cartoon about teanages going through puberty. Nick kroll and a bunch of other comedians.

It's awesome.

It really is good; what’s frustrating is that the first half of the pilot was okay, but the second half behind the paywall was great so who knows if it will drive people to their app because the first half wasn’t very enticing... I had the app already so it wasn’t an obstacle for me. But I could see many just not bothering after the first hour.
 
The first two episodes didn't really grab me, but the third one was pretty good. I should probably go back and try TNG again and finally try Deep Space Nine.

DS9 didn't get good until a few years in.
