wwazman The only two episodes I have seen were late last year. The last one had a apparently drunk off his butt Merv Griffin, who I'm sure, after the airing of the episode, did everything in his power to shelve the series. (and who wouldn't want to protect themselves?) Alas, Paul Fusco, we wished you well, but it apparently is not to be? Have not heard hide nor hair of ALF's hit talk show since then. Ed McMahon as the sidekick? He even stated himself in the opening scenes "Why am I doing this?" Why indeed... If they want to try again with the talk show, make it less boring (the part with Merv was HIDEOUS), because while they go and try to make it at the same time appealing to kids (cat puppets being interviewed at the beginning of the first show) .. and yet have a host/interviewee type show, leaves children bored and adults very confused! I like ALF, I liked the old series, but not this talk show one.

Nozze-Musica ALF has always been great, I loved his old show, I loved all of his bit parts since, in commercials and in all of his other stuff, he is just funny. Now ALF has his own talk show, Ed McMahon as his co-host is superior is priceless, an excellent addition to this funny show. The guests are not the top stars, but they are a lot funnier than some of the people on Letterman, or a couple of others. Doris Roberts and Joe Mantegna were some standouts, but Merv Griffin was probably the funniest, who fit in perfectly with the silliness and the tone of this show. Sadly this show was on only a few episodes, and it looks like it will not be on again. But still, the comedy bits, the host, the guests, the co-hosts, the tone, the advertisements, they were all perfect for this show, this is one of the funniest shows I have seen in years, but with comedy today that is not saying a whole lot. I can only hope this show will be on again soon.

james676 ALF'S HIT TALK SHOW is FUNNY! Bravo to TV LAND for being creative. Instead of 24 hours a day of BONANZA reruns, they decided to be original and actually create something. They have the TV LAND AWARDS, the Dick Van Dyke reunion (which was picked up by CBS) and now ALF. I always loved ALF. It's a funny show, with a good concept. Ed is wonderful, as well as great comedy from newcomer Kevin Butler. I am only angry that TV LAND bumped it from it's Friday night time slot to early Saturday morning. The guests have been great: Drew Carey (first guest), Joe Mantegna, my personal favorite Leon Redbone, Bryan Cranston, etc... The banter between Alf and Ed is great, but I must say that Kevin Butler is one of the show's gems. He is very funny as Alf's protégé. That's original of ALF creator Paul Fusco, Alf could have had some Baywatch model as Alf's protégé, but instead chose some guy named Kevin Butler who is extremely funny, fitting perfectly into Alf's mold. I also love Alf's many Hawaiian shirts.Watch this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy the show, life is short!

William (wmattifo) HA! -That's Alf's trademark phrase. Paul Fusco brought Alf to our planet back in the mid-1980's and he's been making us laugh ever since. The show "Alf" was on NBC for a few years, and has been in reruns ever since. Alf was funny on his show and that was more than just laughs for kids. Alf and Willy were a funny comedy team, and they could make anyone laugh. Now Alf has his own talk show and it's funny stuff. Alf is a witty host, and he can go verbally head-to-head with any major star. The guests have included: Tom Green, Merv Griffin, and Leon Redbone. You have to see it to believe it. The real surprise here is Ed McMahon. Here's a man in his 70's, and he really seems to be having fun along with his pal, Alf. Ed begins every show with a rousing "Here's Alf", and Ed plays a brilliant straight man to Alf. If you haven't seen this show, yet, try to catch it. This is good, potentially great television.
