I remember watching ALF as a kid (I had a bunch of the toys, too!), and I recently downloaded a few eps. to see if I still liked it, and I DO. So now I've bought S1-3 on DVD and love them. I plan to buy S4 ASAP. I guess I had forgotten (or not realized, since I was so young) how funny this show is.

Anybody else out there still watch? I thought maybe I'd try starting up some discussion, so I don't feel like I'm the only one. LOL I'll try to post some fave quotes or something to liven the place up.

I also love watching Alf as a Kid and I just got done watching Season 3 of Alf and I cant waite till I get season 4 of Alf.

I watch "Alf" again now, even though the first half of the show was better than the later half. And I remember my mother watching the show, when it was in its original run in Sweden (late 80s, early 90s). Mum even told me about him being from the planet of Melmac. I even remember getting a little plastic Alf doll, that had candy in it, which was shaped like little cats. (It was like you were opening Alf up and eating the cats he had eaten.)

I do, too. I think it could do really well on ABC Family or even N@N. I know they had it very breifly a few years ago.

I'm just starting to watch Disc 2 of Season 4. Anybody know if Jake is seen or mentioned in this season at all? So far, I haven't seen him. He was one of my fave characters.

Furienna · 08-05-2007, 03:13 AM

I think there was less of him in that season, yes.

Fortuneately, we got a channel called TV4 Komedi over here in Sweden last fall. Think of it as our Nick@Nite or ABC Family. They show "Alf", "The Cosby show" and "Family Matters", plus a lot of others, that I watch as often, like "The golden girls", "Cheers", "Cybill", "Rheba" etc etc....

Do you think Alf would do good on TV Land

Nice to see another Swede here

Too bad I don't have TV4 Comedy

Ja, TV4 Komedi kan man bara få med parabol, och bara med en speciell parabol dessutom, nämligen Canal Digital. Men som tur är så kostar faktiskt min pappa på både Canal Digital och Viasat. Vi har alltså nästan alla TV-kanaler, som finns här i Sverige, utom alla de där TV1000-kanalerna, för vi har i alla fall bara basutbudet från Viasat.

Lyckos dig

Vill spela in alla avsnitt och ha dom oklippta på band eftersom DVD'erna är klippta.

Furienna · 08-19-2007, 07:06 AM

Det är ju lite arbete, men annars skulle jag kunna spela över några avsnitt på DVD åt dig. Men jag kan inte lova någon bra kvalité.

AxelFoley · 08-21-2007, 12:32 AM

Oj, det var väldigt generöst och schyst av dig att erbjuda mig. Men jag vill inte vara en pina så det är lugnt, men tack ändå

Hi back.

I keep seeing you all over the place (including MSN!). Are you following me or something? LOL

TV DVD Fan · 08-21-2007, 02:39 AM

ALF is a good, fun, family show and is funny at the same time. At first Willie kind of annoyed me as a character with his endless stuttering and what have you, but now that I've been a fan of ALF for a while I realize it was all part of the charm.

Pina och pina... Det tar ju tid och så. Men jag kan göra det för en slant... Om du vill kan du ju skicka ett privat meddelande, så kan vi diskutera saken vidare.
