A family of alien royalty crashes to Earth and just... lives there. The show treats this premise like it's completely normal, which is exactly why the comedy works. Every episode is two self-contained stories where the absurdity comes from watching a displaced king and his relatives stumble through ordinary situations with the casual bewilderment of people who used to own planets. Nobody's trying to save the world or prove anything. It's just a goofy family being goofy on someone else's planet, and that's enough. A show this relaxed about its own premise shouldn't work this well, but the timing and the commitment to the bit make it feel warm instead of empty. Watch it if you want comedy that doesn't need to shout to land.

After their home planet explodes, a king and his family head for Earth and settle there. The comedy comes from the goofy misadventures that follow the royal household in its new home. Every episode is split into two separate stories. The TV series ran for 26 episodes in 1969 and plays its premise purely for laughs.
