    Both can be good, but used carefully. The 2nd and 3rd season of the Orville had some of the best space action I’ve ever seen and gave me the same feelings as the dominion war in ds9. Discovery never had any space action that got me remotely excited.

    But drumhead, measure of a man etc are crazy good too.

      The first episode of season 3 of Orville I had to skip through the opening battle scene because there was no context and thus no emptional weight.

      Orville is a mixed bag, but nonetheless a great show, and I’d argue, probably the best star trek show on the air haha

        I fully welcome Orville into the Star Trek fandom. It’s clear that Seth wanted to make an awesome star Trek show and sold it as a comedy to get airing in my mind. I think he did a fantastic job, for sure the best new trek I’ve seen, although I haven’t tried brave new worlds yet.
