I'm a little surprised the show has only 3 seasons, considering it
started in 2017. Covid did delay a lot of things, but they still only released one season (season 3) after the covid restrictions were
lifted.

I was pleasantly surprised by The Orville. I thought it would be all
slapstick comedy (A Million ways to die in Subspace?) but they've
tackled some intruiging topics while keeping the humor.

Do they have a holodeck on The Orville? It would be interesting to see
one of the crew running a TV show simulation (a la Paris in "Star Trek: Voyager") that was a cliche Sci-fi TV show version of The Orville. How delightfully Meta that would be.

Yes, they have a holodeck - They call it a simulator. Did you watch the whole series? There were a few episodes that involved their holodeck. One of the episodes was about Bortus having a holodeck porn addiction, and he was downloading porn that ended up causing a computer virus to be spread across the ship.

My favourite characters are Isaac and Bortus.
