Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

In the irreverent tradition of My Favorite Martian and Mork and Mindy, Bonnie and Terry Turner (That ‘70s Show) created 3rd Rock From the Sun. Launched in 1996 as a midseason replacement, the alien comedy ran for six seasons, garnering 31 Emmy nominations and eight wins, including three for John Lithgow and two for Kristen Johnston.

In the pilot ("Brains and Eggs"), four extra-terrestrials suddenly materialize in the college town of Rutherford, Ohio. Disguised as humans, they dub themselves the Solomons. They are Dick (Lithgow), Sally (Johnston), Tommy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), and Harry (French Stewart). On the surface, Dick is a physics professor and Tommy is his hormonally challenged 14-year-old son. In reality, Dick is the high commander, Tommy (who's actually the oldest) is the senior information officer, Sally (who's actually a man) is the lieutenant, and squinty-eyed Harry is the transmitter/receiver. The humans in their lives include Dick's colleague--and object of his affections--Mary (Jane Curtin, Kate and Allie), secretary Nina (Simbi Khali), and landlady Mrs. Dubcek (Elmarie Wendel). The first season also introduces Officer Don (Wayne Knight, Seinfeld), who will appear more often in future seasons.

There were 20 episodes in the first year. In each, the Solomons learn something new about the human condition. In the debut, it’s feelings. Dick finds them silly, until he realizes how essential they are--you can't be fully human without them. Then there's sportsmanship ("Green-Eyed Dick"), mortality ("Body & Soul & Dick"), and so on. Guest stars include Harry's dream girl, Martha Stewart ("Post-Nasal Dick"), The Gilmore Girls’ Lauren Graham ("Dick's First Birthday"), and Newsradio’s Phil Hartman ("Lonely Dick"). After the show’s demise, the cast would move on to other ventures, most notably Broadway hit Dirty Rotten Scoundrels for the versatile Lithgow and independent drama Mysterious Skin for the grown-up Gordon-Levitt. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

5.0 out of 5 stars Great show, great box set(s)!, Oct 12 2011
This review is from: 3rd Rock From the Sun - Season 1 (DVD)
I am almost finished watching the latest (2011) box set releases of 3RFTS Seasons 1 and 2. Excellent price and packaging, excellent transfers, and excellent special features
(Season 1 has ~ 1 hour of interviews with cast and a very nice 5 minute blooper real, am working my way through Season 2 features). I very much look forward to future releases of Seasons 3+ of 3RFTS and would consider anything else this company releases if it is done with similar care and love.

This review is from: 3rd Rock From the Sun: The Complete Season 1 (DVD)
I loved this show when it was originally broadcast and now my teenage daughter begs me to watch this too. It's nice to find a show that we can enjoy together. We'll be getting the whole series.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Start of something HILARIOUS, May 3 2009

This review is from: 3rd Rock From the Sun: The Complete Season 1 (DVD)
I used to watch 3rd Rock from the sun when I was younger and I just loved it. The show was witty, clever and down right entertaining. The thing I like about this show is from seasons 1-6 the episodes are classics. I also believe the cast were made for their roles. I think this show will lighten up anyone's day as the humor is amazing.

I recommend this amazing season and all the other ones as well.

I rate this show a 9.5/10. I would of rated it a 10 but I think it ended too soon.
