Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Rich Whitcomb I can see why season 4 was the final season. Don't get me wrong, I love Mork and Mindy, but the things that bothered me about the last season are, they cut Gina Hecht (Jean DaVinci) and Jay Thomas (Remo DaVinc) out completely. I liked those characters and the diner they ran. I also thought by adding the diner that it gave the show another place to go to instead of just shooting everything in Mindy's apartment. Lastly, season 4 just gets kind of weird and goes overboard with Mearth. I know everybody loves Jonathon Winters, but I didn't find him all that funny except a few times. I will definitely keep season 4 and watch it again, but the first 3 seasons really are the best. It's a shame they never had a series finale, but that's how it goes most of the time I guess. We will always love and miss you Robin Williams! Well, until next time..Nanu Nanu.

bregund For good or ill, this show pushed Robin Williams and his smirk into the mainstream forever. This show was Robin Williams, any other actor couldn't have pulled it off. He's one of those people that you can't look away from, like Michael Jackson or Cameron Diaz. That's not to say that after five minutes he doesn't set your teeth on edge, so they paired him with apple-pie Pam Dawber, who hasn't had a gig since then, and set the show in Denver, in a state with the most bored housewives in the country and their agenda to set America on the straight and conservative path with their loony fundamentalist drivel. Talk about an odd couple: wacky show in a narrow-minded state. Now that's fantasy.Anyway, as others have pointed out, the show started out pretty good but by the time Jonathan Winters rolled around it was like trying to accept the second Darren Stevens. As funny as Winters is, the premise didn't work. Then they brought in some unfunny pizza guy whose desperation to be funny was just pathetic. By 1981, you wondered which fourteen people in the U.S. were still watching the show and why it was still on.In short, this show was relevant to its time; at best it was an oddity, much like the astonishingly bad Green Acres. I can't imagine anyone willingly watching this program unless he happened to be studying Robin Williams's early work for some strange reason. Hey, if you want this show on DVD, then you must also want Supertrain on DVD, and Supertrain was a steaming pile.

Shawn Watson I first saw Mork and Mindy when I was about five and thought it was the funniest thing on earth. I would even sit on my head like Mork did and I had some of the Mork toys too.So it's obvious I would grab this DVD box set as soon as it came out. And is Mork and Mindy as good today as it was back then? Of course! In fact it might be even better coz when you compare it to modern sitcoms M&M has more integrity as Robin Williams and Pam Dawber seem to be performing to a much rawer audience with more theatrical performances.Robin Williams is just completely crazy as Mork (from Ork), an alien sent to Earth to investigate our strange customs and report back telepathically to Orson, his boss. Mindy is the girl he meets who gives him a home in her attic, much to the annoyance of her cynical dad. And, trust me, you can clearly see that Robin Williams often gives up the script to manically ad-lib his own madness while Pam Dawber runs after him, desperately trying to keep the show under control. It's so cool in certain moments when they're close together during a manic moment and she's looking into his eyes in amazement, petrified at what he's about to do next. He would also go crazy off-stage in an effort to distract Dawber when she had a scene on her own.Supporting characters are also cool. Mr Bickley, Mindy's dad and grandma, Eugene and the outrageous Exidor all grab as much attention as they can whenever Williams isn't going mental. David Letterman, Dana Hill, Tammy Lauren, Morgan Fairchild, Penny Marshall and Geoffrey Lewis show up in cameos too. Plus Fonzie is the first episode (a flashback to Mork's first ever appearance in Happy Days).There are NO FEATURES AT ALL on the DVDs. Which is annoying seeing as how this time I would have liked to have seen stuff. But I'm just glad to have it. Hey, Paramount, give us Season 2 NOW!!! The show is presented in 1.33:1 full frame, as originally shot. And for a 27 year old show it looks great with very little in the way of print damage or grain. The sound is plain old mono but it's fine for what it is.You MUST buy.

Brian Washington The first season of this show made it the breakout hit of 1978. However, the producers came up with the bright idea of firing much of the original supporting cast (Corad Janis who played Mindy's father Fred and Elizabeth Kerr who played Mindy's grandma Cora) and replacing them with Jean and Remo DaVinci (played by Gina Hecht and Jay Thomas repectively). Another mistake that was made was by removing the broad slapstick that made the show a success and replacing it with more socially relevant stories. Things got so bad that they decided to put a twist on the old bring the cute kid trick and have Mork marry Mindy and have Mork "give birth" to a middle age baby. At least Jonathan Winters was funny in that role. Too bad it couldn't save what could have been one of the all time great sitcoms.
