My Favorite Martian

- Season 3

(1965)

Brennan triggers the CCTBS, transporting the guys to 1849 St. Louis. They didn't carry the CCTBS with them so they are stuck. Using money seen as fake, Brennan's ancestor arrests and jails them. They escape and meet Mrs. Brown's ancestor.

Thanks to the guys, Loralei Glutz heads west on a wagon train. But they are once again behind bars. Martin draws Tim a map of where the CCTBS is located in case they get separated. They break out only to be blackjacked by bounty hunters.

Martin uses the CCTBS to travel to 1925 to stop himself from meddling with a movie being made and he ends up getting the lead role. Tim gets dragged along. Martin decides he must transform an inept waiter into an actor to fill the role.

Martin has a "futuroid" camera that takes photos 24 hours into the future. It creates a photo of Tim as a groom in a wedding, the bride's face unseen. Tim limits his contact with women but gets assigned to cover a story at a men's club.

Martin's new gizmo, a molecular reassembler, switches the psyche of the two subjects to which they are exposed. Naturally it is inadvertently beamed on he and Mrs. Brown just before Det. Brennan intends to propose marriage, switching them.

In trying to devise a trip home to Mars, Martin takes many memory pills giving him green spots. Since Tim uses little brain space, Martin has him take the pills and gives him a post-hypnotic suggestion to return to normal at a finger snap.

Martians need gold in their diet and Martin hasn't had any which causes his body to turn whatever he touches to gold. After a difficult dinner served by Lorelei, Martin sends Tim to harvest greens near Ft. Knox that should have trace gold.

Martin is too heavy for his spaceship and shrinks himself to 6 ounces so he will fit in a wine bottle. He ends up in an overseas relief package in Baghdad and in the home of lovesick Abu whose girlfriend is being made to marry the Sultan.

Reacting to antagonistic Brennan, Tim shines Martin's benevolence bulb on him and it breaks. The futuroid camera shows Brennan has a pleasant encounter with a bank robber. Martin rigs a device to flip Brennan but makes himself sluggish.

Martin overcharges the magnetic field of his ship and pulls in a Slobodian space ship and its beautiful female pilot. He removes her memory and adds it to Martian tape. Lorolei's psychologist nephew wants to help her recover her memory.

The CCTBS time travel machine is stuck on 1870 Missouri. A short circuit in it transports Frank and Jesse James into Tim's apartment. The James brothers tie up the guys and make Lorelei drive them to Missouri so they can hold up a train.

Martin temporarily ages himself 400 years as he studies human old age. He takes a job as a warehouse night watchman and meets 2 elder spinster sisters who tell him they want their storage items to open a tea house but the owner prohibits.

Martin's duplicating machine now makes permanent duplicates and naturally 2 Tims are made. Martin leaves to get 2 minerals needed to eliminate the duplicate. The dupe Tim uses Martin's personality change device to make himself an evil Tim.

Martin gives Lorelei a concentration pill so she can focus to find his letter she lost. It makes her focus on police work. She attends a police function with Brennan and takes the honorary badge too seriously, even a barricaded suspect.

Tim uses the CCTBS to go back to today's lunch hour because he missed a big news story: the robbery of some famous jewels. He has been demoted to obituaries. Once there, he bungles his way into becoming a suspect. Martin devises a plan.

Mrs. Brown's big talking, mooching brother visits and finagles attending a women's defense league luncheon with a general as a guest speaker. He cons the General into thinking he is working on a top secret project with "inventor" Martin.

Tim stands to inherit big money from distant relatives if he can prove the family link but the existence of "Uncle" Martin muddles things. He tries to use Martin's time machine to travel to 1920 and change an ancestor's name to Martin.

Tim is sent on assignment with young photographer, Jimmy McClain. Tim isn't looking forward to the experience as Jimmy is a walking disaster zone. Martin knows however that Jimmy has a self-fulfilling failure complex which stems from his childhood, and thus Martin wants to help him out of it. At the story, Jimmy, with Martin's help, gets an exclusive photograph which does include Martin. However Martin is currently photograph invisible. If the photograph is developed and shown, it may disclose Martin's Martian identity. Martin destroys the photograph, and as a result,...

Martin intermittently becomes "the" television transmitter worldwide, overtaking all TV broadcasting, his eyes being the camera. One occurrence lets all see a suave TV personality sans his toupee, shoe lifts, etc. and ruins his career.

Mrs. Brown's brother, Alvin, has another hair-brained, get rich scheme. His new fangled machine, Wannamaker's Widdle Wife Saver, is a housewife's answer to chores - it cleans, it vacuums, it mows lawns among other things. Or so it's supposed to once Martin puts it together. It's a piece of junk that even Martin can't salvage. Martin and Tim decide to try and sell it back to the man from who Alvin bought it, only because Alvin used Loralei's $500 to buy it. Dr. Dunlap ends up being a bigger swindler than Alvin is but pretends not to be, but Martin and Tim convince ...

Martin is having some problems at a department store: there is a chemical in the cologne, Homme Fatale, that has turned him into a mannequin, a fate that could be permanent unless he gets blasted by some molecular revitalizing rays from his ray gun. The store's floor manager won't let Tim take the mannequin or buy the mannequin at that, so he has to go home and get the gun and bring it to the store. As soon as Tim gets back, Mrs. Brown and Det. Brennan also show up at the department store on a shopping spree. Tim can't shoot Martin in such a visible setting, so tries ...

Martin must again go up against the CRUSH organization when Tim is kidnapped by Butterball.

Mrs. Brown's purse is stolen at a carnival. Det. Brennan automatically suspects a gypsy. Martin reads the gypsy's mind and knows he didn't do it. Because the detective arrests him, the gypsy places a curse on Mrs. Brown to drop things.

Martin's 11-year old nephew, Andromeda, takes his dad's spaceship, gets lost in a cosmic storm and crashes on earth. Det. Brennan is sniffing around so they have to send "Andy" to school. But there he reveals his Martian identity.

Tim brings home a lost dog, Tutu. Martin has perfected a super micro-distillate process, one similar to distilling flowers into perfume. He plans to distill himself small, enabling a return to Mars. Tutu drinks Martin then he is reclaimed.

Trouble begins when Tim (Bill Bixby) contracts a Martian virus.

Mrs. Brown gets zapped by Martin's personality altercator and, in a jarring turn, absorbs the contents of the book "The Criminal Mind" and transforms to a scofflaw. She starts small but soon graduates to a plot to heist an epic diamond.

Martin is having trouble with his spaceship so he calls in a friend, one of the greatest minds ever on Earth, Leonardo DaVinci. DaVinci is annoyed to learn how his inventions have been credited to others and La Gioconda had a name change.

Martin has a mosquito bite which transfers the bit of residue from the bug's previous victim. In this case, it is a racehorse. The residue causes him to experience all the horse's feelings and vice versa. The mob drugs the horse as a fix.

Mrs. Brown acquires Martin's "sixth sense" while he has it out of his body for cleaning. Martin races against time as soon Mrs. Brown will become aware of his Martian identity. She starts scooping Tim on news stories so much he gets fired.

Tim accidentally turns a squirrel into a man with Martin's malfunctioning molecular reassembler. Martin has to fix the reassembler soon or the change will be permanent. The payoff is when "Red," Tim and Martin perform as "The Squirrels."

Tim uses Martin's CCTBS to go back to do some research for his historical novel on the 1626 sale of Manhattan from the Indians to the Dutch. It seems he did something to kill the deal. So Martin insists they go back to then and fix it.
