I had not seen this thread. Finished the first part and found it enjoyable. Max arch was very, very good and the RPG guy is fun.
For the negatives, I didn't care much
and El's arch is only really cool when they reveal what pretty much everyone should have already guessed by then. And I just miss the silly nonsense humor that we got in Season 3. This one is very dark and serious. It seems to be some kind of a trend, for even The Orville is very serious now.
