    • TRIVIA (1)

      ADD TRIVIA

      • It's strange that Willie would need to give ALF the Ochmoneks' phone number, considering all the times ALF has called over there on his own initiative.

    • QUOTES (6)

      ADD QUOTES

      • ALF: (singing to the tune of "Happy Birthday" while in front of a dish of meatloaf) Happy Fappy to me, Happy Fappy to me. Happy Fappy to the alien they kept under house arrest with a long list of "don'ts" and nothing but a plate of cold meatloaf, while they all went to a big party with lots of hot food . . . Happy Fappy to me!

      • Willie: That is the worst thing you have ever done. ALF: Willie, every time you say that it loses a little more impact.

      • Kate: Why do we put up with you ALF? Tell me that. Kate:I am the sunshine of your life. Kate: Right. I forgot.

      • Kate: Why are you putting things in the trash for homeless people? ALF: I did it because it's Thanksgiving, and because we should help out those less fortunate…and because pastels do nothing for Willie!

      • ALF: (reading from Willie's list) "Don't call except for an emergency." (looks thoughtful) I wonder if boredom constitutes an emergency. Let's call and find out.

      • Lynn: I smuggled you some dessert. ALF: Oh goody, goody, goody, goody! (looks at it suspiciously) What is it? Lynn: Guess. ALF: Rubber vomit?

    • NOTES (1)

      ADD NOTES

      • ALF tells the Tanners about Thanksgiving on Melmac, which is called "Fappiano." This is named after Bob Fappiano, who was one of the crew members of the series.

    • ALLUSIONS (2)

      ADD ALLUSIONS

      • ALF: (reading Willie's list aloud) Don't call anyone else under any circumstances." looks up Not even Margaret Thatcher?
