Craziest Episode Of House, EVER!
Craziest Episode of House EVER!
I’m assuming that those reading this know something about House. However, some of you may not know about Third Rock from the Sun, a TV show that ended in 2001 that John Lithgow starred in. For those of you unfamiliar with 3rd Rock, here’s a summary of the plot and the characters: John Lithgow is the High Commander of an alien mission, com to Earth to study the life forms and habits of the creatures (namely, humans) dwelling here. The High Commander has taken the name Dick Solomon and he and the rest of his team are posing as a “typical American family.” Hilarity ensues as they try to be “typical” and “normal.” Trust me, it’s hilarious. All six seasons are out on DVD. I highly recommend watching them.
The Characters
Dick Solomon/High Commander: Pompous, arrogant, thinks he’s the best thing to happen to earth since before the discovery of the wheel. (Yes, he thinks he‘s that great.) And he’s in love with Mary Albright who, at first, can barely stand the sight of him.
Sally Solomon/Security Officer/Lieutenant: Posing as Dick’s sister, they’ve done many missions together. She loves shoes and is a tall leggy blond who also loves a portly policeman named Don Orville.
Harry Solomon/Transmitter: Harry is the weird one of the “family.” Posing as Dick’s brother, he has a squinty eyed expression, which means we rarely actually see his eyes. He has a transmitter in his brain which lets the rest of them maintain contact with their superior, the “Big Giant Head.”
Tommy Solomon/Information Officer: Though older than Dick, he’s been put into a teenage body for this mission, complete with pimples, urges, and all. His main hope, at least for a couple seasons, is that he can see his girlfriend naked/have sex with her.
Mary Albright: Though it takes a season to wear her down, Dick finally gets her to admit to him she cares about him and soon the couple are together. She was a wild one in her younger days, sleeping with just about anything in pants and though her looks have aged, she can still turn heads when she wants to.
Don Orville: Overweight cop that Sally seems to have this strange connection with. He was her first and he’s very proud of it. In actuality, he’s not much of a cop, but neither Sally, nor any of the other aliens, ever realize it. She’s very impressed with the uniform.
