    Running Scared

    "An extortionist threatens to turn ALF in to the immigration authorities for being an illegal alien." Its a high stakes adventure as ALF shifts into being the paranoid sci-fi thriller it always could've been with a suprisingly suspenseful tale that could still play strongly in the modern climate. Ben Baker and John Matthews are in the middle of it with one of those big conspiracy boards covered in string trying to put together the pieces. Like what we do?

  2. Baby Love

    Baby Love

    "When Raquel plans a surprise baby shower for Kate, one of the neighbours brings her baby to the party. Meanwhile, ALF has an allergic reaction to a baby and tries to move in with Jake." Oh hey, Kate is pregnant! We'd forgotten being as the previous five episodes failed to mention it once. If you wanted to see an episode of "ALF" which was not very much about ALF and more about babies, this is the episode for you. As for Ben Baker and John Matthews...well, you'll have to listen and see what they thought yourselves. Like what we do?

    Suspicious Minds

    "ALF believes that a reclusive new neighbour is ⁠Elvis Presley⁠, and is further convinced when the man displays Elvis-like tendencies" Uh huh. Thank you very much. Pie and chips twice. Just some of the Elvis based phrases we all love and admire - and nobody more than ALF who dons his conspiracy cape to find out if a man who doesnt look or sound very much like the King might actually be him. Its a typical romp for the lad, made even better by a script by a returning Mike Reiss and Al Jean. As always trying to keep track of the millions of pop culture references are your guides Ben "The King of Wistful Stinking" Baker and John "The King of Rollo" Matthews. Like what we do?

    Fight Back

    "When Jake easily repairs Willie's car, he and ALF think the mechanic may be sabotaging the car for needless repeat business, so they start Operation Sam-Scam to furnish proof" Now this sounds like a bit of classic ALF roister-doistery of the highest level with hidden camera hi-jinx, teenage lust, the correct way to score darts, real life undercover TV reporting, cuckery, microwavable ice cream and poor sweet Willie merely wanting some peace and justice. Your referees as always for this knockout are Ben Baker and John Matthews. ...FIGHT!

    Hide Away

    "After a verbose houseguest of Willie's reveals he is in the Witness Protection Program, ALF is convinced gangsters are stalking the Tanners." Its a caper episode! Or is it a sensitive look at someone on the spectrum? Or maybe its instead a practical guide to large net crafting? Ben - please call me Benji - Baker and John - please dont call me ever - Matthews dont know and they're the hosts of this damn thing. Its good to be back.

    Do You Believe In Magic

    "Willie introduces ALF to simple magic tricks." And 'simple' is very much the watchword for this strangely empty sort of episode. Still lots of great gags and business like a trick made inside Kate's sun hat and straight up arson from Willie. The stupifying Ben Baker and John Matthews are your glamourous assistants trying to work out Captain Eo, Senor Wences, "Racy" Don Johnson, Nina Buckley and ALF dressed as Jimmy White fit into the tale. Merry Christmas and thank Jebu there's no "Special" one this time.

    Alone Again, Naturally

    "ALF mistakenly believes his cousin Blinky is living in Barstow, getting himself captured by a deranged freak show owner." Its a tale of secret cousins, trash newspapers, kidnap, taking a glimpse and unimaginable powers. Ben Baker the Amazing Aardvark and John Matthews the Hairy Parrot stand exhausted in the middle of it. Glue an antenna on this! Want to find a friend or two?

    My Back Pages

    "Seeing Willie and Kate reminiscing over their old stuff in the attic and show the family film footage of them attending the Woodstock festival, ALF asks Willie about the 1960s, causing Willie to ponder if he abandoned the ideals he held during those years." The Wonder Years was doing big business in 1988 with its melancholic boomer look back at the sixties so if its good enough for Fred Savage, its good enough for the boy Shumway who is once again tormenting Willie's dreams. Ben and John as ever are there to ogle the results. If your share our ideals maaaaaaaaaaan, why not consider joining the Orbit Guard and throwing some bread at this groovy season of ALFsplaining and new exclusives from the extended universe.
