   I finally did download the first 6 episodes of the Orville, just to give it   
   a fair trial.   
      
   It has it's moments, but beyond a few crude jokes that only kids might find   
   funny.   
   And a definite "feminist" leaning, where the males are all dufuses, and the   
   women have all the brains.   
   I wouldn't go out of my way to watch any more episodes.   
      
   Nice sets though, too bad the stories are weak,  and characters are   
   completely one dimensional.   
      
   One plus though,.....at least they made it a show of it's own, and not   
   piggybacking on the past glory of Star Trek.   
      
   ...Universal won't be happy until they beat the last possible bit of life   
   out of the TREK name.
