Ted Danson was in the most recent Orville episode and it was a real stinker and his guest role was a total waste.

Kristen Bell is arguably twice the starpower as McKean which sucks because McKean has been around forever and is one of the hardest working actors in the business. BCS also doesn't seem to have nearly the impact as Breaking Bad for its actors. Its not like people are knocking down the door for Bob Odenkirk like they are for Bryan Cranston.

Kristen Bell going to this show was a huge win for them. She really could have done anything after Frozen which is telling that no one wants Idina Menzel but that's probably because she's notoriously an awful person to work with.

At this point I'm always really suspicious of reports an actress is hard to work with. It's usually code for "has a backbone" and/or "won't sleep with producers".

"The entire history of this incarnation is one of temporal orbits, retcons, paradoxes, parallel time lines, reiterations, and divergences. How anyone can make head or tail of all this chaos, I don't know."
It's 'Clue' for McKean for me. He's consistently great. Also, I feel like with the way the show races through storylines, he could effectively only be around like 2-3 episodes before they change it all up again.

I think you're super exaggerating how it works for actors in animations. Nobody's knocking down the door for them no matter how popular that film was, because as far as most people are concerned they're not actually in it.
Voice acting doesn't open the doors that "physical" acting does.

I haven't actually seen anything with her in it, so you could be right. I was just responding to someone mentioning rumours of her being hard to work with. Said rumours seem to often if not usually be poo poo rapists make up to cover their buddies or get back at actresses rebuffing them.

Everything she's been in has been musical theatre, film adaptions of musical theatre, and singing in animated movies. She perhaps is really good at one thing, and that thing doesn't get a lot of work in Hollywood

"Tiny Trains"

When rumours of an actor being a piece of poo poo, a rapist, or just plain a pain in the rear end to work with comes up consistently from the crew and working class of the film industry it's generally true. When it's just a few producers/directors complaining about someone, specially a women, it's generally that she did something horrible like question why she was being paid half that of her male co-star.

All I know about Idina Menzel is John Travolta couldn't say her name at the Oscars and then tried to make out with her.

I'm generally pretty hesitant to believe rumors that an actress is "difficult" because that's usually code for "actually gives a poo poo about her performance/the way she's being treated on set." I also haven't heard about any of this Menzel poo poo before right now. But from the variety of sources and stories here it's tough to deny that there's probably at least something to this.

There is a massive, massive difference between giving a poo poo about their performance and how they're treated on set and being a diva. Being famous isn't an excuse for treating people like poo poo and acting like an untouchable god, especially since there's so many famous actors out there that don't act like that despite facing difficulties on set.

If you all like Michael McKean, get hype because Good Omens is coming out in a few months and he, in some of the most loving inspired casting in the world, plays Witchhunter Sergeant Shadwell.

If it's true that sucks, I'm just saying my default is skepticism cause rumours like that about actresses are so often started by rapists blacklisting women that said something or who resisted.

Are you kidding? It's one of the best things to happen to American TV recently. When you have to do 22-24 episodes, you end up stretching too far, delaying stories and payoffs too long, and treading water too often. It's hard on the writers, hard on the actors, hard on the crew. More content solely for the sake of having more content leads to watering down your show, not improving your show.

Also I think I remember reading that it's in Kristen Bell's contract that she won't do more than 13 episodes per season because she didn't want to be away from her family for too long.

It's weird that Brooklyn 99 is so funny considering how many episodes they pump out per season.

I agree though a good amount of episodes for a season is 10-13ish.
