I've tried really hard to like this show but sadly the story telling is tripe. The creators are trying entirely too hard to tap into current events while failing to creating a science fiction fantasy based in the future. Even given that this is a work of Science fiction, events in the show are just so outlandish they defy even the largest stretch of the imagination and situations feel so forced it's awkward to watch. This is hands-down the worst incarnation of the Star Trek franchise. I've seen fan-made YouTube series with stronger writing, better characters and a more entertaining plot. I know it has nothing to do with the Star Trek universe but I have found The Orville far more entertaining.
