If aliens from another galaxy were to observe ordinary people as they look for love in contemporary America, what would they make of it? That is the premise of
The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human, which takes the form of a documentary in which a camera crew from an alien civilization spies on a couple from Earth as they meet, fall in love, and navigate the bumpy road to matrimony, as a helpful narrator explains what's going on. The Male (
Mackenzie Austin) encounters The Female (
Carmen Electra) at The Sacred Meeting Ground (a nightclub in Los Angeles), and thus begins a long series of dates, conversations, sexual episodes, meetings of parents and friends, and finally marriage, as an expert (
David Hyde Pierce) enlightens us as to what it all means.
The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human was written and directed by
Jeff Abugov, best known for his work in television on the series
The Golden Girls,
Roseanne, and
Grace Under Fire; the supporting cast includes
Lucy Liu,
Markus Redmond, and
Lisa Rontondi.
