@lu2s I think it was marketed badly so people were expecting something else, but the main problem is that it's set in space so it invites science fiction fans to watch. Most are maybe expecting something like The Orville (which those same people hated to start with, but learnt to like), but what they get is Veep... in space. It's not their usual fare, and it's not at all what they were expecting. It'll take a few episodes to shed those people and then a bit longer for those who aren't watching to hear by word of mouth what the show actually is and start watching. If you like darkly satirical and layered comedy then this is for you.
@lu2s When all you can say is that something is "fine," it deserves a 6 tops.
@jaw72 I've never watched Veep. But if you're saying Veep is Avenue 5 without space .. I'll add it to my watch list. Thanks.

I am surprised by the low rate of the show. It is quite nice. The comedy is fine, the placing good, the history is something fresh. The only thing is maybe the 2nd line actors could be better. It seems that Hugh was expensive :) but overall it is good show. 7.5/10
