"Look! I have one job on this lousy ship, it's stupid, but I'm gonna do it! Okay?"
Sometimes I wonder if Galaxy Quest didn't understand Trek better than some actual Trek shows?
It did.
As did The Orville.
Agreed. I started to bring that up, too, but my comment was turning into an essay, so I decided to reduce it all to a pithy two words.
Agreed. For a show that started out as just a parody, it pretty quickly developed into a spiritual spin-off.
I never considered it a parody as much as an homage with more humor. And yes, it got better when they toned the humor down.
It did though I lost my way with it, the new season just had some poor choices for me, probably due to Seth thinking with his penis instead of his head.
I liked it overall. Better than the first season, certainly.
I am meaning New Horizons, series 3 I think. Season 2 was better than 1 but they still insist on the love stories a lot of the time which is fine but it seemed each week someone was falling in love.
Ha! I just finished listening to the Film Reroll podcast episode where they play Galaxy Quest, so I find this comment extra amusing.
Bloody autocorrect. Fixed it.
