Alf bites the dust in Canada - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Family Channel in Canada, which had been showing Alf twice daily, has stopped airing it as of Janurary 1st.

So, as far as I know, that's it for Alf in Canada. Is it still airing anywhere in the US?

Alf never was showing here in the states on family channel....the last channel here in the states that Alf was being broadcasted on was the Hallmark channel but they stopped showing Alf on that channel a few years ago. Luckily i have the complete set of Alf on vhs tapes...if you are interested i could sell you a few episodes on a tape or the complete set. My email addy is Victimized1777@hotmail.com

That's terrible, but be grateful that you even had "ALF" airing up that date. It's been years since it aired here, and Hallmark wasn't that widely available then either.

But I have a feeling N@N is going to pick up "ALF"... I just don't know why.

Hallmark didn't stop airing it "years" ago. They showed it often until early 2002, when it was just shown on Saturday mornings - 2 episodes. That went on for several months, until in late 2002 they took it off for good, so it's been just a little over a year.
