Background[]
The Orville[]
Billingsley was announced by TrekMovie on July 26, 2018 to appear on The Orville.[2] By his own account, Billingsley had only a passing familiarity with the show, preferring to read rather than watch television and film.[3]
Of his experience shooting, Billingsley said:
You know I was told that Seth MacFarlane does a killer Dr. Phlox impersonation. I asked him to do it for me, but he never would. I want to hear it! Nobody does a Dr. Phlox.
Another great thing about working on The Orville is I got to work with Molly Hagen [sic], who is a wonderful actress, and Bob Picardo, who is such a love. One of the great joys of Star Trek is that it is one big family. Down the years I have got know a lot of the actors from the other shows. Bob and I got to be such good friends and it is always great fun to hang out with him.[4]
