The drama bits and plotlines are every bit as good as TNG/Voyager/DS9, but if you don't like McFarlane's humor, I doubt you would like the other 75% of the show's content.

But the humour is like at its highest like 15% of the show

Thing is it's not the humour, it's the humanity. Showing all the crew are just as dorky as your average human today, not all stick-wedged paragons like TNG. Think of the top time funniest moments - getting Bortus to eat a cactus, 500 cigarettes, karaoke, the moustache, the dancing bandito, isaac's joke fail... the humour is there, but it's the humanity that makes them. that's where s3 kinda fell down a bit, i don't know if it was covid rush or what, but we missed a lot of the warmer moments. Season finale delivered though.
