I'm only 3 or 4 episodes in but the "Take Your Daughter to Work Day" bit made me laugh. It isn't the funniest show, but I've enjoyed it so far. |

Yeah, it’s a satire of thriller movies/shows. Not serious. What was chalked up as bad writing was intentional tongue-in-cheek mockery of the genre. I enjoyed it a lot.

The "Star Trek" we deserved, but they had to make it campy to avoid getting sued.
Was recently wondering if any more Orville was forthcoming.

I enjoyed the first season. Didn’t make it through the second but mostly due to other shows getting aired and just forgetting about it. Would definitely be willing to pick it back up at some point.

I enjoyed the first season, the second season seems to be starting out a little bit uneven to me. There's a lot of loose ends to be tied up from the first season. Maybe it's going to take some time for the actors to get back into character because the interactions seem a bit 'off'.

I watched In From the Cold. Ex Russian Spy made a life in America and gets recruited to help the CIA. I wanted to like it. I really REALLY did. I loved the Americans, the chick looked hot. Production value looked good. Hoooo boy was it dumb. It did a few things right, I enjoyed most of the action, the acting of the 90's Berlin stuff was fairly compelling. I didn't hate the performance of the CIA guy and the IT guy.
But I was all the way out during the

I'm sure they want that thing to make a second season. I'm probably out. |

Meh. Watch the first episode. Then read the first spoiler. If it doesn't bother you, fire away. It's possible I'm being overly critical.

I read that after. I guess that makes it better, but now im just kinda mad at it because it wasn't funny enough nor obvious enough to be satire. The source content that it's making a parody of isn't even all that memorable for me to go, "OOOOH it's a parody of...". And on top of that it wasn't funny enough to go, "oh, this is clearly a comedy".
