Halloween is approaching and ALF wants to go trick-or-treating. Kate, of course, objects, but ALF persists. He argues that he has a natural costume and tries offering Willie a deal he can't refuse......
The Tanner family is an average American family. One day, they discover that they have a visitor. He's small, he's furry, he's arrogant, and he's an alien from the planet Melmac. Unsure what to do, they name him ALF: Alien Life Form.

Oh yeah, the Tanners also have a cat, which looks rather tasty...Written by

How could anyone not like ALF? Aside from the fact that the show was genuinely funny, the show had an imagination and ALF was soooooooo cool.
Despite being on the air for only 4 years, ALF managed to capture the hearts of children and adults alike with his witty charm and hunger for cats.
Pity this show ended. We need more like this one.
