It would help a little bit if MacFarlane didn't have such a punchable face. He just doesn't have the necessary acting chops to show any sort of command presence among the crew. The show has quite a few problems, but in my opinion he's the worst character of them all.

If he wanted to write and act in his own Star Trek playpen fanfic show, he should have cast himself as just an average bridge officer and let someone else do the heavy lifting of being the captain. Maybe he should have been the loud-mouthed helmsman instead of that dude from Band of Brothers. Then at least the informal way he approaches his characters wouldn't seem so strange.

He needs to write the captain to be more serious, and he's got to take some ****ing acting lessons. All the previous Star Trek captains had that larger-than-life quality about them, and he's just... average. Like he's just some dude in a Star Trek fan film.
