[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZERfeh7n4Q[/youtube] ALF was a great all-ages show. Like, when I was a kid, I totally missed the homoerotic subtext of that scene. Yet now, as a smart and savvy adult, it seems so obvious. And by "obvious" I mean "hot."

Never watched it. Loved Millhouse getting excited about the pogs, though. Funny video. Funny funny. Vid-e-o. Ha. And some junk.

It's tragic that illegal aliens have to put up with this abuse because they are afraid to go to the authorities, lest they be deported.

Ross wrote: Didn't the dad turn out to be a big perv? wiki says just two DUIs and Quote: Max Wright [the dad] stated that he despised supporting a technically demanding inanimate object that received most of the good lines of dialog. He admits to being "hugely eager to have ALF over with".[1] Anne Schedeen said that on the last night of taping ALF "there was one take and Max walked off the set, went to his dressing room, got his bags, went to his car and disappeared. [...] There were no goodbyes." Schedeen herself said "there was no joy on the set [...] it was a technical nightmare - extremely slow, hot and tedious. [...] A 30-minute show took 20, 25 hours to shoot." While fond of her on screen children, Schedeen said some adults had "difficult personalities. The whole thing was a big dysfunctional family". Schedeen added, "It's astonishing that ALF really was wonderful and that word never got out what a mess our set really was".[1] Elson, who suffered from bulimia during the second season of shooting, stated, "If ALF had gone one more year, everybody would have lost it".[1] Wright would eventually reflect more kindly on ALF, saying in June 2006, "It doesn't matter what I felt or what the days were like, ALF brought people a lot of joy".[1]

I remember Wright giving an interview, and the interviewer noting that Wright had signed an agreement preventing him from revealing "the secrets behind how they bring the ALF character to life."
Wright just shook his head and said, "Right... all that I can say is, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what's going on there."
