The specified urination by crew members and presence of a toilet on 'The Orville,' along with the re-invention (finally!) of seatbelts at least for shuttlecraft, marks the show as satire. Note in premiere "Old Wounds" episode enemy Krill combining decorously in their battle-armor costuming the mechanical and the piscine (fish-like). Note also racist, so to speak, robot science officer and neat gizmo device that speeds up within a bubble the passage of time. Key to defeat of Krill is the combination of the time-acceleration device — SPOILER — with a genetically-engineered seed that produces a redwood tree in a few seconds, yielding the image of the destruction of a spaceship by a rapidly-growing plant.
For the "racist" robot, "Isaac, an artificial life-form from Kaylon, a machine society that thinks biological lifeforms are inferior,"[4] cf. and contrast in a few of his moods, Bender on Futurama.
