I do like science fiction, particularly of the Star Trek style. I'm less into the Aliens (action/horror) stuff and more into fantasy/exploration stuff. Adventure in general is nice. Conflict is expected (as that's part of any plot), but I don't enjoy shows of inevitable doom usually (although Melancholia was good).
I also like comedy - British, American, southern American. I'm rewatching My Name Is Earl now. I enjoyed Trailer Park Boys for a while. Blackadder was fantastic.
I don't mind some violence, but that shouldn't be the focus. Likewise I don't mind sex (explicit or not) as long as that isn't the point of the show.
Gratuitous, over-the-top violence (modern Tarantino films) are very much not my interest.
Or the author saw it in a TV show or film. There's an episode of the old show, "My Name is Earl" which shows an art gallery and a urinal mounted on the wall. (Earl's brother Randy uses it and then comments how it doesn't flush.) That episode has been shown on TBS in the past week, so the author might have seen it.

Huh, this is basically the plot of a My Name is Earl episode: https://mynameisearl.fandom.com/wiki/Kept_a_Guy_Locked_in_a_Truck

There's an episode of My Name is Earl based on this premise.
