Discuss The Orville

Issac the robot like character seems to be Spock + Data + Twiki + Dot Matrix, well mostly in appearance, although he is a bit C3PO is in a way. None the less is he just a blank faced robot amalgamation of other similar character or .... well I don't know if he is going to be more than that eventually. What do you think of him and his possibilities ?

I thought it was more a copy of iZac the bartending robot from Futurama, which was named after the Love Boat character.
But it could also be some kind of tribute to Asimov who wrote so many robot stories.

I was a little disappointed to find out he wasn't in some way biological. Like the trill, only using machines instead of symbiots. Oh well.
