Plot Synopsis
Mork, an alien from planet Ork, is sent to Earth on a mission to observe human life and report what he learns to his intergalactic superior, Orson. Within moments of landing in Boulder, Colorado, Mork meets Mindy -- a young beautiful girl who takes him and promises to keep his identity a secret from everyone except her father and grandmother who find out almost immediately. In each episode, Mork tries to understand American culture but often misunderstands everything. Meanwhile, Mindy tries to conceal Mork's alien nature at every turn which proves difficult given his peculiar tendencies like greeting new people he meets with, "nah-noo-nah-noo."
