Alf is set to make his comeback! Yes, I said Alf!!! The Hub will be rerunning Alf episodes and during the promo slots Alf will host the network’s prime-time lineup, and reminisce on his favorite Alf episodes. Do you know how exciting that is? I used to be in LOVE with Alf. I had a door size poster of Alf hanging up on my wall next to the Nelson brothers, and Tiffany. 

I think I’ll be tuning into The Hub for the first time ever tonight. 

Here’s the Alf promo for The Hub:

And just for sh*ts and gigles, here is an old Alf clip:

“Before you get up for that final snack, I want you to know, I’ll be right back!!” Yay, Alf! ;-)

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    Alf was always trying to eat the cat. That always tickled me.

    And the fact that his name was Gordon Shumway.

    I can almost understanding loving Alf if you were five when it was being broadcast. But I was already much older than five. And I hated this show with a passion I reserve for very few things in life. This show made Three’s Company seem intelligent. The same goddamn joke over and over and over. Ugh. Stupid puppet. Double ugh!

    @itchy – I was pretty young when the show came out, and loved it…but yeah, I could see how you’d hate it. Thankfully I was in the bubble and was obsessed with Alf, and other shows like Small Wonder. But, I must say Threes Company is totally my slow jam. I’d watch the re-runs and I think I’ve seen every episode–that show was sooo good. I loved it so much, I even watched the spinoffs, “The Ropers” “Three’s a Crowd,”…yeah, I didn’t get up from that TV set much.

    You probably did see every Three’s Company episode. They only wrote two scripts, and kept filming them over and over again, with a few costume changes thrown in to keep people guessing.

    My personal taste has always run to the high brow stuff. In other words, I was a thorough Love Boat addict. There was a time there in the early 80s when it was on four times a day. And I’d watch every single one.

    @Itchy but Alf’s face alone is hilarious. And didn’t you always want him to find Rhonda (I think that was her name)

    Nads – sometimes I think we were separated at birth. First with the torturous connect-a-brow childhood. Now, the love for Alf, Tiffany and all things Three’s Company! You must be my sister from another mister!

    I dont remember the set up, but Alf was building Gilligans Island in the backyard, he was not using real bamboo, he used Nauga-boo. My husband and i laughed our heads off at that one.
