Synopsis
Mork & Mindy is a novelization of the TV show by Ralph Church. It was adapted from the episodes "The Mork & Mindy Special," "Mork Moves In" and "Mork Runs Away." The book includes a 16-page spread featuring 22 black-and-white promotional stills. The book follows the scripts of the episodes fairly closely, weaving together the events of the three shows. There are many deviations to the dialogue, some of which were replaced in the show with various Robin Williams-isms, and some which may have been cut for time. Unlike the "video novel," the flashback scene with Fonzie and Laverne is intact. Amongst the additional dialogue is information about Ork, its language and customs.
