I want to like this show but the characters are just so lame.

I grew up with Star Trek New Generation and captain Picard was just great. But these guys all feel like really bad actors.

I found myself wanting them to stop talking or get killed in the show. They are so triggering bad. Nobody else feels like that?

Anyone in particular? I don't feel taken out of the story by the acting.

I sometimes think the writing is a bit too obvious, but I guess its hard to come up with something original in a universe with this much content. The actors seem believable to me. I enjoy it because Captain pike feels like the captain, a captain Riker would be.

I think it's hard to describe why we don't like something. I think part of it is because of the annoying personalities. But they won't be annoying to you, or you would have picked up on it by now.

I think most people seem to like the show. It's doing better than Picard I think, which was also crap in my opinion.

I did like the Orville though, because it did have some actually funny scenes and decent stories.
