Would it help if I told you that his particular brand of humour stops being the focal point after a bit? Iirc it doesn’t last into the second season and is then replaced by actually thoughtful storytelling with light humour sprinkled on top.
Maybe. I think I stopped watching after the social credit episode in the first season. Maybe I’ll check it out again if I ever have another reason to get Hulu.
The first season, like all trek, is desperately trying to find its footing. That episode and 1-2 others could probably just straight up be skipped like how when I was looking for the best way to watch TNG for the first time the top ways I saw were “watch the first and last episode of season 1 and skip the rest”.
Once the show gets its footing it gets really good really quickly.
I’ll be honest: I haven’t made it past (or even to the end of) that episode either. I’ve tried a couple of times, but end up stopping after a few minutes just from the sheer cringe.
And I really like the rest of the show, to the point where I don’t want to skip any episodes, but that one I really ought to skip.
