Is it true that The Odyssey Channel was the first cable network to show A.L.F.?

No, Alf was originally on NBC back in the late 80's. THere was also a Saturday Morning Cartoon featuring him and his adventures back on Melmack. It was actually a really good cartoon!

I know A.L.F. aired on NBC from 1986-89. What cable networks besides Odyssey has Alien Life Form Been on?

Wrong, it was on from 1986-1990.. it was never on a cable channel before Odyssey (atleast in the US) as far as I know - it was only on syndicated local channels..
