Memorable, crazy movie

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

I recently came across episodes of this show on Youtube. It is especially memorable for me because it was telecast during the same years I was in college, starting in 1963. The overwhelming feeling watching these old episodes again is "how easily we were entertained back in the 1960s." It was a different time, shows were more family oriented, sexual references were very indirect, and there was no objectionable "blue" language.Ray Walston was the title character who became known as Uncle Martin to avoid revealing where he really was from. After his Martian craft crashed, he was found by Bill Bixby as columnist Tim O'Hara who took him and his damaged spacecraft in. Much of Martin's thrust is to get his craft repaired so he can return home. Other than that each of the 107 episodes was acting out some humorous situation.Fun TV series, brings back good memories.

I've always loved the Broadway Show Damn Yankees and if you watch Ray Walston on My Favorite Martian, the characters are very similar.On Damn Yankees Walston played the Devil and made many commentaries about the human race especially in the song "Those were the Good Old Days". He is also frequently seen making commentary about the human race on the TV show as well.The character Joe Hardy is given super normal baseball powers when he makes a deal with the devil. Tim O'Hara in My Favorite Martian is not given super normal powers but he takes advantage of what the Martian character can do for him. Ray Walston frequently points this fact out on the show.Also as the Devil in Damn Yankees, Walston possesses extraterrestrial like powers as he does in My Favorite Martian which in my opinion made him perfect for the part.I looked at some of the commentaries, and I did not notice anyone seeing this similarity of character.I would welcome any thoughts on what I think.

I first saw this series when I was 12 years old and I have dearly loved it ever since because it's full of good laughs and is a great deal of fun to watch. Uncle Martin is hilarious with his Martian antics as well as Tim as the newspaper reporter who took him in after his space ship crash landed on Earth. It's always highly enjoyable to watch their adventures together. It's easily one of my favorite TV comedies of all time.
