    And I thought Spongebob was poison...

    ...but this is just ridiculous. Yet another Nickelodeon sitcom that has nothing to show for itself, but that it's utter crap. This show makes Out of Jimmy's Head (which was awful) look like gold. I have nothing personal against Lucas Cruikshank, but the truth is if he's starring in something, odds are it's going to be terrible like the Fred series (although his cameo in iCarly (way better than this) was a little funny). The idea that an alien tries to adapt to life on earth idea has been used over and over (Sym-Bionic Titan, Invader Zim, American Dad which are all better than this pile of garbage). I can live with the idea, but that doesn't excuse how terrible the acting is. Like I said before nothing personal against Lucas Cruikshank, but the things he stars in are just awful. Now does he have potential? Maybe. Is he using that possible potential? No. Can he do better? Definitely. So Lucas, calm down, stop being all annoying and/or squeaky voiced, and actually use your talent that you (might) have and ditch this crap you've been working on for something better.

    Creative Premise, But an Overall Mess

    Okay, so this show had a creative premise going for it. Sure, the formula has been done in shows like Mork & Mindy, ALF, and My Favorite Martian, but this was during a time when all of the Nick sitcoms were literally about some kid becoming famous or training to become famous (iCarly - Girl that's famous on the Web; Victorious - Girl that's training to become famous), so this was a breath of fresh air for Nick. But they had to ruin it with one thing: FRED as the title character. Yeah, Lucas (or Fred) figured he raped our ears enough, so he moved on to other acting jobs. But man, is he annoying in this one! His annoying voice is what killed it for me. And now, since it's canceled, Lucas is a nobody again.

    Overall, this show is bad, but it's not as bad as AwesomenessTV or Henry Danger. It at least tries to make jokes, but the jokes come off as bad, like butt humor. Hey! At least they're trying. At least they're going for a kind of humor! Even if it is disgusting humor like butt jokes.

    Possibly the worst show ever

    It is not often that I say something is the absolute worst, because usually it would be seriously exaggerating, but with this show, I honestly think it could be the worst or at least equal with the worst show I have ever seen in my entire life. It is just as bad as Fred, except unlike that which started as a dumb internet show, this somehow managed to get approved for TV right off the bat. I can't imagine who would have thought it was a good idea. The idea isn't original, there is nothing funny about it, and the acting is below average as well. You can tell where it tries to be funny but fails horribly, the "jokes" actually made me cringe while watching it. The whole thing basically consists of Marvin displaying gross bodily functions and acting like an idiot, which is supposed to be explained bu him being an alien, but it gets old fast, within the first few minutes of the first episode it already makes you want to never watch it again. This show will make you fear for the future of humanity. Avoid it if at all possible.

    What is this?? Just Awful

    Nickelodeon is doing more awful shows. What's wrong with them. This is a channel for kids, but what they're doing is putting so stupids shows. They think that comedy for children is silly. And this show is in the top of the list of the worst shows. The jokes are fools. I've seen few episodes, to know that this show is crap. The acting is terrible, the characters are fools and the plot is awful. We have an alien boy that joins to a normal family. This alien is so stupid and silly that he cant understand how is the human life. Also the "abilities" that he have because of being and alien are so stupid and kind of weird. So really, i could say that this is the worst show that Nickelodeon have created. Don't watch this show, is just awful

    So zetta bad!

    Marvin Marvin is a zetta horrible show. Lucas Cruikshank is just some stupid son of a digit, and his show is a pile of garbage. CRUNCH! I'll add it to the heap of horrible Nick shows.

    I gave the pilot a shot, it's just a stupid zero to me. I really put effort into not giving up, and my calculations were correct: it was not worth it. I recommend you do not waste your precious time, this show is out of it's vector. All of the jokes were cringe worthy, in a bad way, and I mean a BAD way. This is just Lucas's way of sneaking more of his garbage onto Nick after his Fred show was added to the heap, either that or Nick's way of milking out their favorite untalented actor.
