I have only seen the first episode of Orville, but I did not hate it. I saw both episodes of STD last night, and saw some things I really liked, but it was not love at first sight. I am not that bothered by the visual look, but I was not impressed with the dialogue. But the, I recall how much I did not like the first two episodes of TNG, so I am more than willing to give it some time.
The CBS Access subscription is a disaster. I was surprised at the limited archive of many of the current shows; I have never seen Big Bang Theorey, and thought maybe I would take this opportunity to go back and watch from the begining. But only a relative handful are available. Some shows do have a deep archive (Surivor). There is an odd selection of older shows (Twiglight Zone, Mission Impossible, Cheers, for example) and some pretty good theatrical films (but relatively small selection). The main problem there is most of what is available on the Access is already available on other platforms. I would like to see a list of uniquely available content - it may not be much more than STD and that Good Wife follow-up. Give that my three adult children also want to watch STD (each in different locations from me), the fee for Access is justifiable for me for now, but as soon as the season is over I will cancel it.
