I'm shocked and appalled at the negative reviews of this great new show. Admittedly Episode 1 was the weakest episode, so maybe those reviews are from people who didn't continue watching. I made the same mistake with Game Of Thrones. Thankfully friends forced me to continue watching. I encourage people to do the same with this show and stick with it. It gets better fast.

Overall a clever sci fi parody with great comic performances from the entire cast. And the dialogue is hilarious, Community-esque.

This series is to science fiction what What We Do In The Shadows is to vampire movies. For those of you who are familiar with that movie.

Enjoyable and rewatch-able. I enjoyed all of the characters very much. Especially Kent (Neil Casey) and Tina (Milana Vayntrub). It is really great to see Joel Hodgson in there. Is he playing his MST3K character as it would be far in the future?

Some of the scenes I just had to keep rewinding they were so good. I liked Ken't video plea to the aliens.

I hope they succeed in convincing somebody else to pick this one up since their creators (Yahoo Screen) failed and took it down with them.

After barely finishing episode 1 , I was really annoyed by the characters, silly jokes and acting. I kept "watching" other episodes in the background, Until episode 5, it was full of fun moments, interesting ideas and I believe I eventually got used to the characters. From then on I started paying more attention and finished the season. Then I restarted watching it from episode 2. Now show was funnier, I got used to the characters etc and was really enjoying it. It may not be funny from start to end however there are really nice and original ideas, lovable, quirky characters. Be patient and give this show a chance. Especially episode 2 and 5 were really really good.

I watched this without reading any reviews first. I came to IMDb to check out the actor's profiles. After reading some of the negative comments, I felt I should awake out of hibernation to add my take. This show hit the spot for me. This is super light and enjoyable fluff, and should only be taken as such. It is screwball irony. The self-deprecating style of the characters is intentional, and I could see how this would be construed as bad acting. In short, I found it fun and want to see more. I hope they make a few seasons of this show -- slowly becoming more and more ridiculous as they go along. It's refreshing to see an American show that doesn't take itself so seriously.

I truly hope Yahoo! brings this back for a second season. I had seen an ad for the show, then I saw the series online, and I was basically doing nothing, I figured, "Why not? I'll catch a few minutes." That few minutes turned into the entire season in a binge watch. It's kinda funny realizing that at least 2 members of the cast were regular characters on the ATT commercials. The show is really fun, and the writers have done a very decent job with the dialogue. I'd have no problem stating I'd put this higher than most of the stuff on network TV.

The basic premise is a bunch of misfits wind up exploring a completely different universe while trying to find a way home. The captain is a bit over- enthusiastic and naive about things going on around him. The first officer is the captain's older sister, and everyone except the captain either hates her or is afraid of her or both. The navigator is a girl the captain has a crush on and has basically no other reason to be there as she is not a very good navigator. The third in command (who should have been second until the powers that be decided they were too afraid of the captain's big sister to keep her around) is the captain's best friend from childhood, and most folks don't even realize he is there. Rounding out the rest is the Admiral's son that was conceived to be a body parts mill for his older brother, and spent the 20 years of his life in a water tank, the ship's engineer that definitely had a bit too much radiation, drugs or some intense combination of the two, the ship's computer, the former AI from a casino, and the ship's robot, a former pension fund robber that is trying to keep himself alive inside the brain of the robot.

The show is quirky, but definitely fun. I really hope Yahoo! brings it back. I have really enjoyed it.
