Critics are definitely sensitive to, for lack of a bettet word, elitist themes. I don't mean to say that they reflect the elite, but rather an elite.

- tpmx 3y agoI think this is one of the better examples of that: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/orville/s01 https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/orville/s01 (critics: 31%, audience: 93%) vs https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_trek_discovery/s01 https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/star_trek_discovery/s01 (critics: 82%, audience: 49%) (S02 of The Orville got very few but great reviews from the critics, it hadn't really changed much IMO.)
