Late news - 3rd Rock from the Sun: Series 1 review by App
Looks like silly fun, but some of the best long running, plausible " aliens acting like humans" performances ever. All the adult actors have achieved other worldly wierdness, but managed to stay just on the right side of it. And a very consistently high energy chaos. Its really very watchable.
The only wrong note is , of course, the women are bitches to men. And spend most of the time whinging endlessly, but thats the rule. No other female identity is allowed. Its a more abstract form of opression, but it does create more andrew tates ,so thats ok then.
