S1 is rough, but it really picks up right out of the gate in S2. The last season is halfway to a different show, it’s skippable. Crusader is fine, too; it’s not great, but I don’t regret watching it.
Yeah it’s kind of like the spiritual successor to 90s trek with family guy humor sprinkled in. I did not watch season 3 yet, but I heard it was great!!
It’s cheesy and cheap and often very manichaean. Yet, it’s very interesting and got me hooked to an extent that nothing on the Star Trek universe managed to.
M’star trek peeps, is the show worth watching? I’ve never seen it, and I’ve heard mixed reviews.
100% worth it. With the caveat that the effects aren’t good. The story and characters more than make up for it though.
Maya did what it could. The effects were amazing for a TV series at the time.
The cgi was done on Amigas IIRC
100%

Oh my god yes. I’m surprised you’re not watching it now. There’s a good amount of 90s camp and cheese, but the bones are very, very solid.

In the past year it was released in 4K. As others have said, the effects are not great, but growing up in that era, it felt a little nostalgic.
I was pretty hooked on it for a while. I got kinda burned out on the last season. It’s not that it wasn’t good, I just binged it too hard.
Is The Orville worth it?

I thought season three was the best so far
It’s been a while so I’m thinking about doing a series rewatch before getting into season 3.
