Mork & Mindy: Mork and the Immigrant

Mork & Mindy: Mork and the Immigrant
ABC
January 11, 1979
Sitcom
DVD
C+

Regular writer April Kelly co-wrote this episode with David O'Malley, his first of two for Mork.  Mork meets a stereotypical Russian Sergei (Tim Thomerson, who had co-starred with Conrad Janis on Quark).  He has him move in, without first discussing it with Mindy.  And then they both end up trying to register as "aliens."  There's a funny line about money controlling democracy, but otherwise this episode is weaker than usual.

Ned Wertimer, who plays the Clerk, was recognizable by then as Ned the Doorman on The Jeffersons.
