Space Force

I've seen both seasons for Space Force, and I have to say a quite enjoy them, they are far from genius or ground breaking, it's just a relatively easy going type of comedy.

I believe the bad reviews stem a lot from high expectations, specially since we have the creative mind behind The Office partnering with Steve Carrell, so people probably had this subconscious hope that this would be as good or even better than the highly successful US remake.

It's for sure not The Office, but if you just accept that, don't think too much about the ridiculous and unrealistic situations depicted on the show, you will have a good time.

It's an entertaining comedy, with some small pinches of well timed social criticism, specially in US context (and this is from someone not from the US) and it has kept me engaged for the full 17 episodes so far.

It has made me laugh several times, with the exaggerated characters and the comments they share on all these situations that they find themselves in, and somehow it seems the cast is having a genuine good time, it doesn't feel forced it's almost as if they are just rolling the camera and let them give they're approach to the scene.

It's a feel good type of show and I look forward to the upcoming seasons since they are smart enough to keep the episodes short and not filling the seasons with too many episodes.

Also John Malkovich and Steve Carrell chemistry is on point!

When I heard that Steve Carell was going to play the lead role in a comedy about America's "Space Force," I had to give this a go.

I found Carell's General Naird underwhelming. He doesn't have the magic that he had on The Office, and the characters underneath him aren't sure whether he's a tyrant or just a buffoon.

Except for one: Dr. Mallory, played by John Malcovich. He's the one who saves this show. He sees right through Naird's bluster and foolishness. He doesn't get swept away by the jingoism of the Space Force, yet he's not preachy about how he truly brings Naird, and therefore us, down to earth with his gentle, authoritative voice.

Beyond that, don't expect too much. It's worth a weekend binge, but not much more.

"Space Force" trade marked by Netflix before the United State government, this Steve Carell comedy is surprising. Not a particular fan of Carell's typical low-brow comedy, but somehow this contemporary comedic vehicle retains a wry intellectual wit about it, probably greatly helped along with the dynamism between Carell and award-winning actor, John Malkovich. The fresh take and parody of America's newest military branch has delightful scenes that pit science versus human intuition along with a decent rather unique set of family dynamics. Each episode somehow incorporates a sensitive and powerful emotive message and performance by Carell. An entertaining and actually captivating series that easy and fun to watch along with a heartful storyline.

I don't understand some of these negative reviews at all because Space Force is a pretty good show! People really need to stop expecting The Office and Mike Scott because it's not...nothing is! Carell, Malkovich & Schwartz are all great as usual! Most of the people who don't like it are comparing it to The Office. I get that it's not for everyone but I found it to be be a pretty good show that's worth watching.

Not for everyone, but from an European eye I've found that hilarious. A lot of jokes about American politics, POTUS & twitter, Pelosi, Ocasio-Cotez. The duo Carrel-Malkovitch works so good, true connection. Easy to binge, very refreshing, go for it !
