So The Orville is currently doing quite poorly with critics, but its score with audiences is 93%. So I wrote another "Critics Must Be Crazy" piece, explaining why I thought many of the reviews weren't giving it a fair shake. There's a balance between personal opinion, experience, broad knowledge of genres and subjects and, in video games in particular, skill level that needs to be attained. With Altered Carbon, many critics offered up perfectly fair criticisms of the show's pacing, its clumsier episodes and so forth. Meanwhile, audiences loved it---or at least early audiences who stuck around and bothered to review it online and spread hype about it on social media.
