3rd Rock from the Sun - Season 1
A group of foreigners decided to come to the land to get to know its residents and integrate with them strongly. It seems strange, especially when these people use a human form that gives them human emotions, physical needs, and so on. Things change a little later, as these people do not seem to understand what they mean or the inhibitions that are usually found in humans. Perhaps all of this will lead to unexpected reactions from these people, as daily events tend to turn into strange situations.

If you can get past the sense that somebody wrote much of this with a Victoria's Secret catalog close at hand, there's actually a charming and perceptive comedy lurking inside, a neat counterpoint to all those series about urbanites on the make.

The new comedy 3rd Rock From the Sun is potentially a hit the size of Jupiter, and played as broadly.

Lithgow is effortlessly funny doing silly physical comedy, everything from getting tipsy on cough medicine to squeezing into leather pants. And his chemistry with Jane Curtin, as a fellow academician, is charmingly light.
May 03, 2018
Cast generally rises above the material, with Lithgow a sort of cross between Steve Martin and Matt Frewer, and tall, raspy-voiced [Kristen] Johnston a real find. [Jane] Curtin is fine, but somewhat wasted as an uptight professor.

Lots of gauche My Favorite Martian humor, but with '90s smut.

I'd love to recommend this show unreservedly but until its scripts improve a notch, it's more like an extended sketch, and I find myself caught between a "Rock" and a hard place.

Intelligently written and well acted, 3rd Rock generates lots of laughs as viewers look at humanity through the aliens' unique point of view.

The cast deserves more consistently funny material. Even extraterrestrials shouldn't have to work this hard for laughs.

Sadly, Lithgow - one of our finer actors - is often reduced to over-the-top, scenery-chewing histrionics in "3rd Rock." If he isn't embarrassed by this show and his performance in it, he ought to be.

There have been worse shows on television, maybe worse shows from even more unexpected sources. But it's hard to imagine.
