See above for the main Idea. The show could present the viewpoint of humans attempting to understand, of the aliens attempting to understand, or of both.

TV show in which unseen beings, with significant technical abilities, are involved. [Vernon, Jul 06 2015]

You could have the ghost of Tim Alien talking across his back fence with snooty neighboring alien/ghost who you never quite get to see.

I presume L. Ron Hubbard will make an apparitional appearance of some sort.

Ah, good old Lafayette Ronald Hubbard. Better known as Dick.

It should be a movie, from the alien point of view. They land on earth and make contact. Over the course of the movie, the humans encountered look and act weirder and weirder - I am thinking now of that Nicole Kidman movie (The Others?). Ultimately (Sixth Sense style) it becomes clear that the aliens have made contact with ghosts.

No, she really was in both.

Reminds me of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.

Alien ghosts.

Also the part where the guy thinks he is going on a date with a girl named Eileen but really his buddy has mispronounced Alien, and the date involves a long session of experiments aboard the ship.

Then: should he call her (them?) back the next day? Sort of a scifi romantic comedy glossing over the cattle mutilations. Richard Dreyfus could cameo as the sage maintenance man, giving romantic and alien advice.

The aliens spend millenia trying to communicate with the (to them) trans-dimensional beings, but the best response they can get is "Look Uncle Ernest, where did you hide the dead fish; it's driving Penelope crazy !". Eventually they settle down to watching the soaps.
