A kids program that portrays life as seen by a prepubescent male: burps are a form of communication, it isn't necessary for your room to be spotless( in fact in can be down right dirty). It is the world as young males see it and to some extent the way they wish the world would be. Many people may not understand this show, but a show doesn't have to appeal to everyone to be good.
This is such a dodgey program, it's almost funny. The "special effects" are so great, you can even see the strings holding the "floating" objects up. I'm talking about the episode in which Plaskitt decides to go space traveling to the planet "Heavy heavy." Don't worry everything turns out okay.
The receptionists (?) hair is pretty amazing and that is about the only good thing about the whole show.
If you really want a laugh (but you have to be getting pretty desperate) tune into this terrible program. There probably are worse shows out there, but you would have to look pretty hard to find them!
Avoid this unless you are REALLY desperate for a laugh, and don't blame me for the consequences if you do - signs of a bad reaction are laughter at even the weakest jokes, an addiction to kids television programs - going so far that you would record episodes when you are out and the worst, most serious one (you should go to a doctor if you get this one!) an urge to paint yourself purple or become best friends with the alien next door (be careful, this could be dangerous for you and the alien).

Pathetic!
When this show is on, similar to what Joey from "Friends" once said: I want to rip my arm off just to have something to throw at the TV screen. My younger siblings like it--- but, even though it is a "kiddie show", it is still one of the worst out there.
It amazes me. Every year hundreds and hundreds of pilots are sent to television networks around the world and somehow they usually manage to choose the worst.
I don't even think it's educational for kids. One episode (one of the few I had to go through the torture of seeing because the computer and the TV are in the same room), anyway as I was saying- one of the episodes quietly suggested violence (but in the end the pathetic looking kid colored in purple just took down the bullies pants)- gee, what a great idea.
Do your kids (and yourself) a huge favor, if you happen to catch kids with horrible acting, one of them purple- change channels- immediately!

That's what i said when i first watched this poor excuse of a show. The kid who played the alien was really bad, and the rest of the cast was pretty bad. The acting was bad, and the episode i saw was pretty bad (it's been a while, i don't remember it well, but i do remember it was stupid) and down right atroucious!
This show practically killed my hopes for Fox Family (now ABC Family), but it's good they canned it. Hopefully the garbge dump will be plesed with what they got in the day the episodes were ditched in the can.
This show just didn't deserve to been seen by us horrified viewers.

An innocent, children comedy show about non-sense.
This show worked because you can come home after a long day and chill to a silly show that didn't take its self seriously.
The acting was decent. The stories and episodes were silly. It worked.
What can be learned? How to chill and relax.
Verdict: The Alien had that Purple Stuff.
