Last night, my brother was talking with me and said "A lot of old shows we watched as kids really aren't bad. I recently watched "My Favorite Martian" and was shocked how much I enjoyed it"....so I decided to try seeing the pilot episode. It was pretty good and my only complaint is the laugh track...something rather ubiquitous in TV comedies...and something not necessary as well as distracting. It was MORE distracting here because the pilot episode really was NOT very funny...nor was it really meant to be. This is not a complaint...the show was enjoyable. As for the show, while I cannot say much about later episodes (since I saw them more than 40 years ago), what I saw in the pilot was quite enjoyable and left me wanting more.
