Alf

[Luke]

Justin Scharf.

Who?

Edit - oh someones hacked wikipedia, lol. It was Paul Fusco who created the character, and with Tom Patchett's help created the sitcom idea. Tom Patchett, writer for GMC and MTM.

Funny story. I remember one day back when I was in college they had "The Photographs of Paul Fusco"... and I thought that that was some sort of side project he did after the show. But luckily I found out it was a different Paul Fusco before I went to the gala unveiling and made a fool of myself.

And I believe before Alf. Paul Fusco also produced and performed puppets in these specials and series.

The Moonstone Gem
A Far Out Fourth
The Crown of Bogg
A Thanksgiving Tale
Santa's Magic Toy Bag
The Valentine's Day That Almost Wasn't
An Easter Story
A Very Retail Christmas
Spacecats

I've noticed in all these productions, the main characters had Alf's similar voice which were done by Paul Fusco.

Maybe they could have the space cats vs. ALF.

But poor Gordon Shumway would need the entire Melmac race to help him!

Yeah! He could like have an army of Melmackians *spelling?* To back him.

Or maybe jut some mustard and Cat-sup! HA! I kill me!

Hopefully not, for though killing out of laughter can be fun, at times, it has its limits. Just ask Jack "The Joker" Napier at Arkham Asylum.

Eh, I was just quoting the ol' ALFster's catchphrase. He had that and "No Problem", right? I forget the T-shirts and coffee mugs.

Anyone remember the trading cards with odd "Melmac Facts" on the back of them? They were a lot more interresting than just pieces of cardboard with production screenshots and photos on them.

 

[wwfpooh]

I remember them. Never had any, though.
