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.
The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human is a 1999 comedy that reimagines modern dating as an alien nature documentary. David Hyde Pierce narrates the film as an extraterrestrial observer, offering hilariously inaccurate theories about human courtship rituals while the on-screen relationship unfolds in deadpan earnestness.
