Blimey! The Solar Opposites have repaired their ship and are heading to space, unless something goes hilariously wrong…
We all love a good sitcom, but what if we added a twist of science fiction to it? This is exactly what you get with '3rd Rock from the Sun', a hilarious TV series that explores life on Earth through the eyes of extraterrestrial beings. The show combines comedy, family dynamics, and sci-fi in a distinctive blend that offers plenty of laughter and amusement.
Created by Bonnie Turner and Terry Turner, '3rd Rock from the Sun' follows four aliens who pose as an ordinary human family in Rutherford, Ohio. These extraterrestrials are on an expedition to observe human behavior and society. Led by John Lithgow's character, Dick Solomon (who you may recognize from 'The Crown' or 'Dexter'), they attempt to navigate human customs and norms often leading to comedic confusion.
The cast also features prominent stars such as Kristen Johnston (Sally Solomon), French Stewart (Harry Solomon), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Tommy Solomon), Jane Curtin (Mary Albright) among others. Each brings their own charm and talent to their roles making their characters unforgettable. Their comedic timing combined with their character's alien innocence makes each episode entertaining and worth watching.
