Started a little too goofy, but found a balance by season 2. Tackles tough topics just as well as any Trek. Just sad it’s probably done for good after switching platforms and the writer’s strike.
My favorite joke is the sandwich in s3. That joke had multiple episodes of set up and when the punchline finally hit it felt SOOO good. I lost my shit.
I’m convinced that Seth convinced execs by pitching it as “family guy in space” even though that isn’t what he actually wanted to do. He then had to do just enough of that until the execs stopped paying attention, then just started making the show he actually wanted. By the time they realized the switcheroo it was too late.
Had the same train of thought once it was apparent he was tackling the sort of “touchy” subjects that Fox Entertainment wouldn’t generally approve of. Good on him for trying.
The best Star Trek series.

Yeah, but the Mr. Potato head gag was possibly one of the finest scifi jokes ever.
