The Orville has literally some of the worst acting I’ve ever seen put onto film, and Seth’s girlfriends were rarely bringing up the average. Seriously, it’s like the half the cast was there specifically to make Travis Mayweather seem like an Emmy-winning tour-de-force.
The fact that it was so damn earnest and had a some good slush-pile scripts from Star Trek saved it overall, but nobody was watching The Orville for the acting, though Penney Jerald, Peter Macon, and Adrianne Palicki handled the material well.
