Before "24" and "Castle," Penny Johnson Jerald played Kasidy Yates Sisko, wife of Captain Sisko on "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine."
"I think she's truly the only adult on board," Johnson Jerald says. "I tend to get those kind of roles, like on 'Castle.' In her case, this is an adult who gets to go out and play with them. I get to shoot guns and I get to fight, so this is more exciting."
She says of "The Orville": "I think Trek fans will not be disappointed. It's not a 'Star Trek' parody. It's another opportunity to get your sci-fi on."
