3rd Rock From the Sun, Season 1 and 2

For five years, John Lithgow and company ruled the airwaves with this delirious blend of slapstick and verbal gymnastics to tell the story of what would happen if aliens really did land on the planet. They’re not here to take over, though. They just want to study our habits and learn from them. The results are hilarious, whether it’s the leader Dick (Lithgow) trying to understand the romantic feelings he is developing for his coworker (Jame Curtain) or the heroic fighter of the group (Kristen Johnston) trying to understand why he got stuck in a hot earth women’s body. French Stewart and Joseph Gordon -Levitt round out the stellar cast. It’s a trip worth taking again and again.
