Not a great Sci Fi, Not a great comedy but a good blend

It's no Firefly. I gave up after 1.5 episodes. ** -- psychobilly 12/07/2017 12:44PM

Kinda like reading Eye in the Sky recaps..enjoyable and confusing :) ** -- Hokiebird32 12/07/2017 11:56AM

It's maddeningly inconsistent; Star Trek for Millennials (no spoilers) -- WestyHokie 12/07/2017 09:59AM

I do (now) see what you mean... like a very campy S.Trek at that. ** -- bourbonstreet 12/07/2017 10:02PM

Maybe it's just me, but I'm really not seeing any "Family Guy" in it -- Late 80s Hokie 12/07/2017 11:04AM

I think it's you; here's a list off the top of my head (minor spoilers) -- WestyHokie 12/07/2017 4:25PM

Brian = Capt Mercer? not too much of a stretch there... ** -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 12:27PM

Not a great Sci Fi, Not a great comedy but a good blend -- HortHokie 12/07/2017 09:29AM

I like it, but I can't say 100% for certain WHY I like it. -- Late 80s Hokie 12/07/2017 07:32AM

I think you nailed it. -- EDGEMAN 12/07/2017 08:35AM

The interaction between the captain and his ex-wife is hilarious. -- EDGEMAN 12/07/2017 08:38AM

Ya' think? I dunno, sorta forced if you ask me...seems like -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 09:18AM

The more I think of it, the more similar it seems... -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 09:23AM

Don't remember anyone doing something similar where... -- EDGEMAN 12/07/2017 10:26AM

Really...no awkward "ex shows up" scenes in your movie/TV database? ** -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 12:19PM

Sounds like classic Rom-Com writing to me...regardless of skin color. -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 12:21PM

It's awkward... -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 07:27AM

Shun! ** -- EDGEMAN 12/07/2017 08:36AM

She's in B'Street's OP, but Google is your friend, she has amazing... -- RRHokie90 12/07/2017 09:10AM

You can watch on the Fox Now app. ** -- NokieHokie 12/06/2017 11:23PM

Or just attach an antenna to your television and watch the OTA broadcast -- EDGEMAN 12/07/2017 10:32AM

He won't be able to watch the whole season with an antenna unless they do a -- NokieHokie 12/07/2017 10:42AM
