mork and mindy
|
Mork and Mindy stars Robin Williams as Mork, an alien from the planet Ork, and Mindy, a 21 year old living on her own. Mork is sent to Earth by his commander Orson to learn more about humans and behavior to better educate their species about our planet. He traveled here in a spaceship, resembling an egg, and crash landed just outside Boulder, Colorado. Mindy is also just out of town with her date looking at the stars. The date didn't go so well so well and he leaves her stranded. Mork comes over with a suit on backwards leading Mindy to think he's a priest. He introduces himself, and walks her home, not really knowing what he's doing or where he's going. When they get there he explains what he is and where he's from. Surprisingly Mindy isn't too afraid and judging by how innocent he seems, she lets him spend the night. The two become good friends and she then lets him move into her home. The series revolves around Mork learning things on Earth and at the end of each episode, he reports back to his superior Orson about his findings. This show provides humor but it also makes people think more about our culture and what we do.
