LOCALE DIET

I really enjoyed Robin Rauzi’s television article (“It’s a Really Small World,” Dec. 7). However, I noticed that NBC’s “3rd Rock From the Sun” was omitted. The show is set in the outskirts of Cleveland, Ohio, thus Cleveland is “home” to both “The Drew Carey Show” and “3rd Rock.” Both shows are big hits with viewers.

According to an NBC spokeswoman, “3rd Rock” is set in the mythical town of Rutherford, Ohio, which the aliens chose as their terrestrial abode because it’s “the most normal place on Earth.”
