For me, I think the thing holding the Orville back the most is honestly Seth as the captain. I feel the same way about just McFarlane specifically. I know it's his passion project and he wants to be the star trek captain, and I get that, right there with ya, but I feel like it's his character kinda pulling the other characters in a specific way that kinda ruins the attempt at a serious vibe sometimes.
