Mork and Mindy Tv Show Description:
Mork from Planet Ork is sent to Earth in his eggshell spacecraft to observe our culture and study our emotions since Orkans don't have any. He meets Mindy McConnell and she lets him stay in her attic. Mindy tries to keep the fact that her roommate is an alien a secret, but her Dad is not too happy about his little girl living with a guy, so Mindy has to explain! Everyone else thinks that Mork is just some guy who's one step away from a mental institution. You see, Orkans do many things the opposite of Earthlings. They sit on their heads, wear their shirts with buttons in the back, etc.
