    "After watching a presidential debate, Kate has recurring dreams of running against ALF."


    Another election? Did we not just do that? Well, its time to strap on your best Uncle Sam hat and never wear trousers as its a politically charged episode of ALF today - so much so we've actually bumped it up the running order a little to make it super topical and relevant. I mean, as much as a sitcom about a hairy dwarf alien can.

    Kissing babies and taking names as always are your hosts Ben Baker and John Matthews who wonder if ALF as President might actually be a good thing. Especially as we recorded this a week before the election cycles results were announced....

    "Not allowed to go trick-or-treating, ALF attends Willie's Halloween party and tries to convince his boss to give Willie an overdue promotion."


    Ghoul-d morning ghouls and man...ghouls? Can you tell its the Halloween episode of ALF this week? And boy is it a treat with "Gordo" finally allowed to let his freak flag fly around real human beings...but with a catch. Or, more accurately, a zipper. Dressed as Fake Shemps in the corner as always are your hosts Ben Baker and John Matthews.

  • Prime Time - with Tim Worthington

    "When the Tanners become part of the new Thompson Rating System, ALF rigs the ratings in order to prevent his favorite show, Polka Jamboree, from being cancelled."

    The Tanners go TV tonto for the second time in a month as the writing staff have a lot of fun sending up broadcasting tropes, including the actual Head of Programming at NBC who is played here by someone oddly familiar.


    To help us tiptoe through the tube bits we have an expert in the field who loves his archive telly so much he's just written the definitive book on the subject. You can pre-order Tim's book "The Golden Age of Children's TV" from Amazon here:

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Golden-Age-Childrens-TV/dp/1785306405


    ...unless its ages into the future then just regular order it.

    And if you want to support our - what can only be described as shenanigans - please join The Orbit Guard for lots of ace video and audio extras about our Melmacian chum: https://www.patreon.com/ALFsplainingExtra
