- Richard18 de octubre de 2025Saw this one on Dutch TV in the late '80s, probably Veronica or TROS. A sarcastic alien who crash lands into a suburban garage and immediately starts eating cats and roasting humans. What’s not to love? ALF (Alien Life Form) is a walking puppet with attitude. He lives with the Tanner family, drops one liners like a stand-up comic and somehow makes existential alien loneliness hilarious. The show mixed slapstick, heart and weirdness. As a teen, I didn’t question the puppet logic, I just laughed. Willie Tanner’s constant stress, Lynn’s eye rolls and ALF’s obsession with TV and snacks made it feel like a sitcom from another planet.

La nave espacial de un pequeño extraterrestre del planeta Melmac se estrella contra la Tierra. Los Tanner, una típica familia norteamericana, lo acogen en su casa y lo ocultan no sólo a las autoridades, sino también a los vecinos, amigos y parientes, porque creen que de lo contrario la vida del simpático alienígena (al que llaman Alf) correría peligro. Muy pronto Alf se convierte en uno más de la familia, pero también creará problemas de convivencia, pues es un ser comodón y poco educado que sólo piensa en comer y en ver la tele.
