My Parents Are Aliens

I think you will find this series funnier when you see the repeats, next year. CITV have made the mistake of showing classic episodes on Monday followed by the new series on Tuesday and Wednesday. Big mistake, the new series should stand alone. Yes I miss Mel but give Harry a chance. It is still worth watching for the brilliant performance of Tony Gardner as Brian. The episode where Brian and Sophie fell madly in love is a classic.

The actress who plays Tania Thomas in the current series is Sasha Tilley, not Emily Fleeshman who played the part in series 3 & 4. Please can someone amend your records in the cast listing.

In response to the members who say they're 14 & 16 respectively and STILL watch the show, I'm 35 and I love it as well. Probably makes a real saddo.

I normally get home from work about 4.30 in the afternoon just as this is starting and after a lousy day at work, it's nice to have something ridiculous to laugh at before I switch over to BBC2 and endure the (frequently) humiliating misery that is 'The Weakest Link'.

I don't watch a huge amount of TV but this is compulsive viewing and I recommend it to anybody, irrespective of age. The cast are great, the story lines are always funny and all 5 of the main characters are believable, likable individuals.

Long may this show continue.

I am 15 and have been watching this show since it began, nearly five years ago. Since then, almost every thirty-minute episode has been of consistently high quality - now in it's eighth series, the show has lost none of the hilarity it started out with. The show is very amusing; it caters for all levels. The acting here is absolutely superb from everyone involved. I can honestly say that, as far as I know, this is one of the only shows on TV with child actors who can act. Not only that, but they are all very good actors. The loss of Barbara Durkin in 2001 led to a lot of people thinking: "Well, that's it." She cut a highly amusing figure as Sophie, the mother. The casting of the very different Carla Mendonca was, however, masterful, and I commend whoever thought of it. There is not a single weak performer in the show, the writing has sustained unbelievably high quality - although some of the humour can get rather crude at times - and there is little to criticise. The only thing I would advice they dropped in the next series is the canned laughter, which removes the sophistication of the all-round masterful show.

Well where do i start, There's only one word to describe this TV-Series and that is Fantastic, I Love it, it is absolutely brilliant. The Characters are brilliant, the casting is super and the locations are superb. I would really really really really love to see this brought out on DVD/Vidoe. So please whoever is in charge of this show. Please bring it out on DVD cos its well good. no1 TV series I LOVE it. MY PARENTS ARE ALIENS is about 3 orphans(Mel, Josh And Lucy) who are fostered by 2 aliens (Brian And Sophie). Brian And Sophie turn themselves into normal human beings so that there true identities are revealed.

I catch-ed this show when I was 11 and the jokes seemed to grow with he cast and audience.

Hilarious is the word to describe the slapstick and gags.

I found that My Parents are Aliens copied certain story lines from shows like Simpsons ( the episode Lucy experiments on Josh) and gas that the Simpson's did( "The doctor said I wasn't supposed to get staples in my head") But the show ended on a high with he first family found myself nearly in tears at the end because I've grown up knowing the characters.

A truly great British show.
