It's literally just camp TNG with juvenile humor, mildly annoying characters, and low stakes.

    Honestly I kind of wanted them to keep more of the humorous tone. I know a lot of people hated it and thought it was distracting, but I thought it was a pretty unique take on the genre. I wish they'd toned it down without going full space opera.

    It took me a while to get passed the early episodes, they were a little too “family guy” for me.

    But the show did get pretty good in season 2, and the humour got better (in my opinion).

    I think the humour in the first few episodes was Mcfarlens way of sneaking the show past the network suits - he sold it as family guy meets star trek, then switched on them once it was established.
