Advantages: very funny, fantastic acting
Disadvantages: unfortunatly, 3rd rock never enjoyed high ratings

Third Rock from the sun is my all time fav comedy ever, This is mainly due to the fantastic acting of the main actors, the most ourstanding being john lithgow. joh lithgow has a style and an expresion that never fails to make me laugh, when he plays an evil character, he does his evil expressions, when he is upset he instantly puts on a face which makes me laugh. one example, Dick (lithgow) and mary and her parents are in a pool discussing affairs, ...
