Quotes

add »
(At the end of the hearing, ALF reveals his own gavel.)
ALF: This hearing is impaired. (edit)
Colonel: Project ALF is about to be terminated. Not just the project, but the ALF. (edit)
Rick Mullican: We're on our way to Mardi Gras, thus the costumes.
Bouncer: What Mardi Gras?
ALF: What costumes?
Rick Mullican: The ones we're wearing.
ALF (looks at himself again): What costumes? (edit)
Motel manager: You're not from around here, are you?
ALF: Minnesota.
Motel manager: Somehow I thought it'd be farther than that.
ALF: Uh, Michigan.
Motel manager: Ah, yeah, the wolverine state. (edit)
Melissa Hill: ALF, hide in the bathroom.
ALF: It's been a long time since those words were uttered. (edit)

Trivia

add »
ALF never revealed what happened to Jake, Raquel and Trevor. (edit)
In the second season episode We're So Sorry, Uncle Albert, ALF reveals that everyone on Melmac dies at the age of 650. This should have rendered the threat to kill him meaningless. (edit)

Allusions

add »
To stress the importance of choosing which products to endorse, ALF mentions Bill Cosby and gelatinous products. Bill Cosby is an American actor famous for his 80's sitcom, The Cosby Show. He also used be the public spokesman for "Jell-O". (edit)
To illustrate his opinion that the camera adds 20 pounds to one's nose, ALF uses Gérard Depardieu as an example. Gérard Depardieu is a French actor whose nose is large. (edit)
When being fitted for his fake space suit, ALF says he's the same suit size as Danny DeVito and the same dress size as his wife. Danny DeVito and wife Rhea Perlman have been married since the early 80's, and the joke was probably due to the actor's stature and build. (edit)
ALF says Neil Armstrong had no personality. Neil Armstrong, an American astronaut, was the first man to walk on the moon on July 20, 1969. (edit)
ALF says he'd like to go public on Baywatch. Baywatch (1989-2001) was a TV series about gorgeous lifeguards on California beaches. (edit)
