Recently re-watched The Orville, and now Discovery, and just made this connection.
Bonus 30 Rock Crossover:
Ash Tyler: This is my wife, Janelle Tyler, maiden name Tyler. Hopefully no relation.

Oh wow that’s weird. Stargate SG-1 also had an episode where a Lt. Tyler turned out to be an alien infiltrator in disguise: “The Fifth Man”.
That's crazy. Is this a trope I'm just now learning about?
Oooh, nice catch, both of you. I dunno if Disco or The Orville used "Lieutenant Tyler" as the character name intentionally, but I think you might be the first to document this trope.
If a character named Tyler shows up on Lower Decks we’ll all be on red alert
I was shadowbanned from /r/risa for making a shitpost about it a few years ago 😅
Maybe in the future "Tyler" is just the most common human surname?
Anyone named Smith is instantly suspicious.
