Well good-bye girls, Veronique... Cindy...
At least once a year I like to watch Seasons 1 to 6 of 3rd Rock From The Sun. This evening I finished watching the last episode of the last season. I watched the interviews on the last disc and I was amazed that French Stewart has eyeballs and can open his eyelids! Over the six seasons I don’t think that I saw his character, Harry Solomon, open his eyes once. Damn it!
Obviously the last 5 minutes are the most heartrending. Knowing that they are going to have to file a final earth report to The Big Giant Head for the very last time.
Here, for the first time on the internet, are the lyrics to the anthem they sing in The Rambler before being beamed up.
Across the void we come a warping
Across the fields of stars we soar
We pledge to land and something something
Dum da da da dum da da da spaceship
And when at last our missions finished
In duty homeward shall we fly
Our glory cannot be diminished
Back to the heavens in our mighty spaceship
It very nearly brought a tear to my old glass-eye… the one I keep in a shoe box in the wardrobe.
