Nobility

This show has many actors from other great sci fi shows, most notably from the Stargate universe, but the writing for this show is incredibly bad. I want to like Nobility, but every time I watch it I feel let down from the sheer boredom of it. All the jokes are not funny, from concept to performance, each joke is lame and delivered by actors who seem out of their element with comedy. Nobility looks to be a show that was created to compete with The Orville, both of which are riding in on the wave created by Star Trek's new Discovery. I cannot recommend this show, and I feel kind of sorry for the stars who for some reason signed on to this project...

INMD lists it as a single event, yet Amazon Prime has it as Season 1, Episode 2 and Season 1, Episode 3. Many of the people listed in the cast are not in the viewable episodes, so I assume they were in episodes that were never aired. The funny thing is I started out with a 7 rating and as I was writing the review it kept dropping to its current 5. I may come back later and drop it further. The concept was there but the writing was weak. The cast looked great, though most of the acting was just phoned in. In many ways it was a near parody of the early Star Trek show. I can see why it never made it past the filming of the third episode.

Sorry to flame it but the dialog in episode 1 was terrible, the acting ( over-acting ) and directing were not that good either. The fight scene was extremely lame. CGI was OK but still B quality. The concept seems OK but the only documentary / reporting I saw was some occasional CGI video drones floating around. I think the whole set was under par and the lighting didn't help much. I want an hour of my life back

There are so many things that don't work in this series: 1) the acting is no good 2) it's not funny 3) the story line barely makes sense 4) the campyness doesn't really fit with anything else 5) the washed-out camera work doesn't add anything 6) the Walter Koenig character is flat, disappointing, and basically irrelevant 7) there's no 'sci' in the sci-fi. There's also little to no drama in the fiction.

The exterior ships/combat/space stuff is solid. That was really the only redeeming thing.

This show has a lot of potential with some great actors in the mix;however it remains to be seen how these great actors will be able to take what will be given to them in the way of plot and writing material and make the show something better. As a long time sci-fi fan I hope this show improves, as the plot seems to be getting better by the third episode. The Special effects are good, the sets might be limited but still get the job done,costumes are spot on and well done. The actors who are of high caliber, seem to be under utilized, but this may change in the future episodes. I will look forward to seeing the next show if/when that happens.
