Summary: 5 Stars
this show is stupid-funny but not rediculous. the cast is so talented, john lithgow, joseph gordon lithgow, and wayne knight, to name a few. if you get the show, you'll love it; if you don't, just remember that they only know human activity from television.DVD Review: Third Rock Never Fails to Entertain!
Summary: 5 Stars
Third Rock from the Sun never fails to entertain! John Lithgow and French Stewart (and the amazing cast & crew) give stellar performances as always! Very funny dialogue and situations, as can always be expected from this series.DVD Review: Season three is a bit of a letdown.
Summary: 3 Stars
Because of jobs and children I rarely got to watch prime-time TV in the 1990s. So I missed a whole decade of TV and am only catching up now. Seasons one and two of Third Rock was a blind buy for me, and I was blown away by it. Being a fan of British comedy, I enjoyed the refreshingly non-American off the wall comedy. Lithgow is brilliant. Season two ended with a bang and a larger budget than usual. So I was looking forward to Season three. I'm only a third of the way through, and I am disappointed.
First, what was the point of doing the big-budgeted, one hour season ending of year two if they were going to resolve the whole story in less than two minutes at the opening of season three? That made no sense.
Second, I was able to swallow my EXTREME dislike of Rosanne and watch the two part season opener. Again, what was the point? Why break up the romance of Dick and Mary in such an uncomfortable (and implausible) way? I can only imagine the writers were going down the 'Cheers' path (romances breaking up and resolving multiple times) which has been done ad nauseam over and over again in American sitcoms.
'Scardy Dick' was one of the worst episodes yet. Dick has gone from child-like to whiney.
I can only hope the rest of the season improves, and I am looking forward to the John Cleese two-parter.
I give it three stars ONLY because of the brilliance of John Lithgow and the other cast members who are able to overcome substandard stories.
Description of 3rd Rock from the Sun: Season 3
Welcome to the most outrageous year of alien lunacy yet! Get ready for out-of-this-world and certified-classic hilarity as Dick Solomon (John Lithgow) and his 'family' Sally (Kristen Johnston), Harry (French Stewart), Tommy (Joseph Gordon- Levitt) and Dr. Albright (Jane Curtin) experience the insanity of human behavior like no other comedy in television history! Wayne Knight, Simbi Khali, Elmarie Wendel and Jan Hooks co-star in this acclaimed third season that was nominated for 8 Emmy? Awards and featured such special guests as Cindy Crawford, John Cleese and Roseanne!Season three of the cult comedy sitcom 3rd Rock From the Sun has been delivered to Earth in a fancy box set comprising twenty-seven episodes of the TV show plus zany bonus material such as a colorful booklet entitled, A Guide To Living On Earth. Four DVDs further showcase the Solomon family, alien outcasts who have been sent to Earth to investigate human concerns. Equipped with the ability to feel human emotions but lacking the knowledge of how to handle them, 3rd Rock's Dick (John Lithgow), Sally (Kristen Johnson), Harry (French Stewart), and Tommy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), take instructions from leader, Big Giant Head, but are often left to make sense out of chaos, creating settings for optimal comic effect. Masterfully written by co-creators Bonnie and Terry Turner (That 70s Show), 3rd Rock's original combination of smart wit and slapstick comedy is still hilarious ten years after the show's inception.
The third season delves into core human experiences, namely love and fear. In a two-part episode kicking off the season, Dick is assigned a wife (Rosanne Barr) by Big Giant Head, disrupting his plan to marry his true love, human and co-star, Mary Albright (Jane Curtin). During a series of rude awakenings occurring over several episodes, Dick learns in trial-by-fire fashion that human trust isn't easily won back, as Mary repeatedly rejects his apologies for not confessing his secret. Subplots about Dick's attraction to Venusians and his hookup with a human woman (Auto Erodicka) temper his heartbreak with whimsical commentary on humankind's sexual nature. Highlights include the Halloween special "Scaredy Dick," in which the cast dress up, and Dick goes as a pirate to disguise his fear of getting a doctor's check-up. Also brilliant is "Just Your Average Dick," featuring a cameo appearance by John Cleese, who shows the aliens that there's more to being human than simply fitting in. --Trinie Dalton
