About 3rd Rock from the Sun: Season 5

A science-fiction-themed sitcom 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN looked at the absurdity of human behavior and society from the perspective of a literal outsider. Four alien beings have been transported to Earth in order to more closely study mankind. Landing in the town of Rutherford Ohio each member of the quartet takes on a human appearance forming the "Solomon" family: leader Dick (John Lithgow) sophomoric Harry (French Stewart) man-trapped-in-a-woman's-body Sally (Kristen Johnston) and eldest member (in the form of a teenage boy) Tommy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt). As they set out to examine the habits of the humans around them the team experiences human emotions and encounters many comic misunderstandings from their too-literal readings of human words and actions. Using clever writing and acting rather than gaudy special effects to convey "alien-ness" 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN was one of television's most creative comedy series. This collection presents every episode of the series' fifth season.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 013131462395 Manufacturer No: DV14623 Product Description

rating: 5 QuoteTheir best seasonQuote
Without question, Season 5 is the best season of this show. Sitcoms TV seasons are a scary buy, as it's always a mixed bag of quality, but if you had to pick from among 3rd Rock's 6 Seasons, Season 5 is the one to buy. The actors all hit their stride together and it's an excersize in hilarity that I have not seen on TV or practically anywhere else in quite some time. September 18, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteAs funny as the 1st timeQuote
I was so glad to get this set on a gold box special-I'd forgotten how funny, witty, well written/acted, and wonderfully entertaining the show had originally been. Since I am not a TV show aficionado, having some minutes cut out does not impact me as I simply do not recall the episodes in their entirety. Maybe if like some I had old VCR tapes to compare, then I might feel differently. I just know when I've had a challenging work day if I watch an episode or two, I laugh out loud and feel much happier. This is a definite cost effective stress reducer. I plan to get the entire set as they too slowly go on sale. August 25, 2008
