The 1997 series based on the classic sci-fi film with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones helped Kids WB own our 90s and early 2000s existence. But did you know in later seasons, the show had real vision and low-key insane art?

One of my favourite lines from the series: J: Frank, what do you look like under that mask? Frank: You know Shania Twain? J: Yeah? Frank: Think of her but the complete opposite. J: Woah. At the end of the episode Frank shows his alien face to J. His real face looks exactly like his dog face but with purple skin. J is disappointed.
