I wasn't a fan of the first few episodes of The Orville and stopped watching after the episode where they put affirmative action hire girl Wesley in charge of the ship when it was like her third day on the job. However, I gave it another chance this summer and did enjoy the rest of the first season. I started the second season, but then stopped after the alien holo smut porn episode. That is just not for me.

That one was cringey but at the same time I appreciate that they went there.
Honestly, TNG went there with the Lt. Barkley episode where he Holographically recreated the bridge crew into his own personal fantasy and DS9 was barely even 'wink, wink, nudge, nudge ' with Quark's Holosuites.
The Orville just took the idea and ran with it.
Easily one of my least favourite Orville episodes, but that was low-hanging fruit that had to be plucked.
