From 1963 to 1966, "My Favorite Martian" was a regular part of my Sunday night childhood viewing. Ray Walston played a martian who took on human form after his spaceship crashed here. He was taken in by Bill Bixby, who passed him off as his uncle. "Uncle Martin" could do all kinds of amazing things thanks to fun early TV special effects. ("How did they do that!") The character 'Uncle Martin' was ranked #3 in TV Guide's list of the "25 Greatest Sci-Fi Legends." I never saw the 1999 movie remake featuring Christopher Lloyd and Jeff Daniels in the two main roles. As much as I like Lloyd, it's hard to imagine the movie living up to the original TV depiction of a Top Ten Alien.
