Common sense is not as common as you think.
Chances of "The Orville" getting a second season?
He might be funny, but the show is serious lacking any funny... especially comic timing. There was some jokes he set up, just to have them go flat with the punchline, either rushed, or drawn out.
Don't get me wrong, "Ted" was funny, and "Family Guy" and all his animated shows are absolute crap, so I'm not a fanboi at all, but this thing is like galaxy quest where every character was played badly by tim allen.

Another good one is Mr Mercedes. Its a Stephen King physch type thriller....a bit slow for first few episodes but really enjoying it now.
Where did you find this? I'd like to watch having read the book, but not sure if anywhere is shoeing it in NZ.
^If you can't find anywhere showing it in NZ you can safely assume the source of it can't be talked about on GZ ;)
I'm enjoying Mr Mercedes too. Brendan Gleeson's character is almost identical to how my Dad was (RIP). Typical funny agro Irishman. Also just started watching Broad City. So funny, have binged almost 2 seasons since yesterday.

The Orville is a drama with a bit of humour. It's not supposed to be a straight up comedy. It's just the trailer made it seem that way so people's expectations going in were wrong for the type of show it is. They're going for a straight up Star Trek type sci-fi drama, but with some contemporary humour mixed in.
The first two episodes of Star Trek: Discovery , not what I was expecting but not to bad either. Will see how the next few episodes go.

The Night Of - series 1 - 9/10 Absolutely superb, right up there with Broadchurch. Strong characters really well acted, excellent story line and great dialogue.
It's a remake of a UK series from 2008 called Criminal Justice. I'm getting hold of that now so it will be interesting to compare the 2 versions.
freitasm: Star Trek Discovery, on Netflix. Not bad but didn't like that science officer guy.
Bloody gorgeous cinematography and CGI eh. Very promising indeed. Only saw episode 1 las night, watching 2 tonight.
Not so sure about the Klingon reimagining yet... their ships were iconic. New ones will need to grow on me.
