The humor, humanizes it. TOS was great. But often a bit sterile and preachy. Still fascinating and a good watch. But nowhere near are relatable.
A lot of people were concerned that it was gonna be family guy in space. With all the toilet humor that involves. But honesty it was all tasteful, generally witty. And mostly seemed to genuinely add to the episodes.
Ehh, having one of the main characters quote a Destiny's Child song in a scene set in the the year 2400, that aired in the year 2017 was pretty cringe.
