A How-To-Do-It Guide.

David Hyde Pierce, playing an alien (credited as infinity-cubed in the opening credits), narrates a courtship in a late-20th century American city as an extraterrestrial nature documentary. The relationship "footage" is played straight, while the voice-over (with its most often wildly inaccurate theories) and elaborate visual metaphors add comedy.

Directed by Jeff Abugov

Starring Mackenzie Astin, Carmen Electra, David Hyde Pierce, Markus Redmond, Lucy Liu, Lisa Rotondi, Sharon Wyatt, Jack Kehler
