Ah yeah - does look like they did a bit of CGI magic on her then. She also looked like her head was too big and jawline very masculine - I guess that was all just cgi though thankfully!
Apparently it was filmed in two locations and CGI'd https://www.slashfilm.com/937718/dolly-partons-the...carl_w said:

Impressive stuff, thanks for the link.
Just watched the square weird-shaped, big-faced Dolly Parton episode. Now I am a huge fan of The Orville but this was 99% cringeworthy utter sh*** only rescued by the last maybe 10 minutes of total schmaltz.
Horrific. F*** o** Dolly, more chemical than human, terrible, terrible rip offs posing as homages. Crap. Sorry, it has to be called out.
Also, is it me or is Seth a graduate of the new Roger Moore school of acting, mainly raised eyebrow or "a look" but definitely less lines.

I always think that Seth is very or rather too self aware in front of the camera. If you watch A Million Ways to Die in the West, you'll see what I mean.
He's not a "great" actor as such. Much more comfortable writing or doing voice work.
Imagine the Star Trek TNG in their prime crew doing these Orville scripts instead.
However, another great episode. Nice nods as said to SW & TG.
I really hope it gets picked up for a 4th series.

While I don't feel quite as strongly I agree it was a tragic cringefest. Horrific. F*** o** Dolly, more chemical than human, terrible, terrible rip offs posing as homages. Crap. Sorry, it has to be called out.

Newest episode is out thoughts?
Good but we have had quite alot of big space battles now and there was very little comedy. A few missed oportunities for a joke ie
in the small fighters on the weapon attack run we saw a new character you knew would get shot down they could have made a battlestar galactica reference of "chuckles has bought it!" Or even a rip off of Seths own work when they are all reporting in "red leader standing by"
Or
Or a Star fox reference when they cant get a fighter off their tale from Peppy "do a barrell roll!"
