The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human

“A How-To-Do-It Guide.”

In a late-20th-century American city, an alien observer records the courtship of two humans for a nature documentary. The Narrator (David Hyde Pierce) explains the rituals of The Male (Mackenzie Astin) and The Female (Carmen Electra) in a flat, scholarly voice, getting most of his theories wrong. Jeff Abugov plays the dates straight, so the Male just keeps showing up, hopeful, while someone else calls it a mating display.
