ALF

[Fluffernutter]

If his name is Gordon Shumway and he speaks English, why didn't the family call him Gordon?

Yes, I know ALF is an acronym for Alien Life Form, but he literally has a name that is common on Earth.

The Tanners should have been more respectful and called him Gordon.

Because it's not as funny.

Maybe they would if he'd stop trying to eat the fucking cat.

That show was pure shite. Thankfully the Simpsons came along and blowed it TFO.

I do a great ALF impression.

Hey Willie!

I had this stuffed animal as a kid and it was one of my favorite things. Alf is a boss.

I liked the way, in the final scene of the final episode, the feds finally got a hold of him and led him away for grotesque experimentation.

When you're a kid, it was fine.
