Does anyone watch this or like it ?

I liked House OK, and Chance ... so I tried watching this a couple times before going to bed and it put me right to sleep. Am I missing something, or is this just a not very interesting show, maybe close to something like The Orville?

I hated this show and didn't find it funny, but I kept watching and I gotta say, after six episodes now it beat me down. I do like this show. As these characters have become more developed, the premise and writing is working a lot better.

Nope

Tried watching this and really wanted to like it, but it's without a doubt the least funny "comedies" I've ever seen and that's going a loooong way. The premise is just beyond unbelievably stupid.

Not even in the ballpark with The Orville. It's not even in the same league. Not even the same game.
This show is terrible, while The Orville is pretty good and even feels like Trek most of the time.

I hoped you liked House (Seasons 1-4) better than OK.
5 to 8 went downhill though.

I watched the Orville or a while, but I ended up thinking it was more potential than anything else. It reminds us of Star Trek, and yet it refuses to really take a stand or make anything kind of statement, but blah time wasting mind numbing BS. So, unless someone can do something that takes off from where Star Trek was all these many decades ago - just forget these endless stupid sequels and prequels and shitquels .... don't bother.

Ok.
Hopefully you at least liked the HomeLand finale.

It was OK. I don't like that they gratuitously killed off Max, he was one of my favorite characters. Still the back and forth between Carrie and Yevgeny was kind of unbelievable.

Watched it all. I found it mildly amusing. Kind of felt like the American version of Red Dwarf.

Not the best show in history, or anything. But I've seen stuff much worse than this.

It's like Mike Judge movie "Idiocracy" but in space - I like it.
