The smash spin-off from a `Happy Days' episode about a wacky alien from the planet Ork and the sweet-natured woman who teaches him how to adapt on planet Earth. When the show launched in September 1978, it became an instant hit with its mix of frenetic comedy, sci-fi slapstick and a star-in-waiting (master of improv Robin Williams) in the lead. Multiple cast and time-slot changes---not to mention bizarre storylines like Jonathan Winters playing Mork's baby---ultimately alienated fans.
  • DVD Pick of the Week - April 17, 2007 | Commentary Track | 4/11/2007
    I'm going out on a limb this week, and I'm choosing a DVD set I haven't seen for my "Pick of the Week" (minor mix-up at the PR firm) - Not Just The Best Of The Larry Sanders Show. Though this is a dreaded "best of" release (please, please continue with the series in seasons sets), there are tons of bonus materials on the release. Garry Shandling is joined by Peter Tolan for commentary on two episodes, with Todd Holland and Judd Apatow doing one episode a piece. There's a documentary about making the series, deleted and extended scenes, alternate takes, and interviews with Alec Baldwin, Ellen DeGeneres, David Duchovny, Tom Petty, Jerry Seinfeld, Sharon Stone, Jon Stewart, Carol Burnett, Penny Johnson, Wallace Langham, Scott Thompson, Janeane Garofalo, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Sarah Silverman, Jeremy Piven, Bob Odenkirk and Linda Doucett. Those special features join 23 episodes of the series on 4 discs. The only thing that would make this set better? Well, that would be the rest of the... read more

  • Robin Williams and Mork's Movie Dork | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 6/7/2005
    Chris Diamantopoulos took some razzing for his portrayal of Robin Williams in NBC's Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Mork & Mindy (an encore airs tonight at 8 pm/ET). The film got Jeered by TV Guide for "reducing Robin Williams to a perky yet sad clown." As for Williams himself, he claims he didn't even bother to watch. "It's weird," the comic cracks. "If they're going to make a bad movie about your life, then [you should] wait for the Cartoon Network [version]."Of course, the ... read more
  • Robin Williams Reacts to NBC's Mork Movie | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 4/18/2005
    Earlier this month, NBC aired its TV-movie Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Mork & Mindy, which portrayed Robin Williams as both a cokehead and a star tripper on the set of his classic sitcom. Since the actor who played Williams told TVGuide.com he was unsure of how Williams felt about the film, we decided to ask the man himself. First off, did the 54-year-old funnyman even bother to watch it? "No," Williams answers. "It's weird. If they're going to make a bad movie about your ... read more
  • "Robin Williams" Defends His TV Movie | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 4/4/2005
    In the April 10 issue of TV Guide, NBC's Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Mork & Mindy ? airing tonight at 9 pm/ET ? gets Jeered for "reducing Robin Williams to a perky yet sad clown." Ouch! Natch, the film's leading man denies his portrayal is just a gratuitous rehash of Williams' alleged setside diva behavior and drug problems. "I don't think the movie's exploitative," Chris Diamantopoulos tells TVGuide.com. "By nature, a biopic ? whether the person's alive or dead ? is [for] ... read more
