ALF IS STILL THE BEST UK REVIEW
I used to love ALF in 1986 as an eight year old child and i still love it today. It doesn't matter how old you are you will fall in love with the old Alfer either for the first time or all over again. It amazes me that this series still holds up so well, it hasn't really dated (apart from the clothing, decour ect...) the idea of an Alien crash landing into a family's garage and staying with them is as appealing now as it was in 1986. Alf the puppet hasn't dated, he still looks real, like E.T. still looks real, he hasn't dated. The one liners are still present, the jokes are still funny, the storylines are still watchable over and over again. This DVD loses two stars because it's the sydicated version, we don't have syndication in the UK, we call them repeats and they're always shown uncut. For instance friends must have been shown over 200 times in the Uk, everytime uncut. Rosanne is uncut over here on DVD as far as i know. Alf hasn't been shown in England for many years though and i'm still waiting for his hit talk show to air or come to DVD. Look, the truth is boycotting this DVD won't help, the studio will think there's no demand for the title and so they'll delete it and not order any more copies. When somebody sugests releasing the episodes uncut then, the studio bigwigs will point out that the episodes have been released and didn't sell. Maybe if we buy this and it sells a lot of copies they'll bow to presure and release the episodes uncut, but i doubt it, Lions Gate have stated that the original episodes are in bad condition and won't transfer well compared to the sydicated ones, although cutting the music and some of the songs makes it look like they don't want to pay for the rights to them. I seriously doubt that they'll release the episodes again, so buy this and enjoy... this maybe the only chance a new generation has to get hooked on the wacky Alien like we did when we were younger. I've ordered my copy and i sugest you do the same, these are some of the best AlF episodes ever made and if you're waiting for the uncut episodes, i'm willing to bet you'll be waiting a long time. ALF is the best television series from the 1980's and is still hillarious today, cut yeah, but even that can't take away from the shows absolute genius!! I dislike the cut's too but some ALF is better than no ALF! Paul Fusco...hand your head in shame. Why didn't you just put your foot down and demand the original episodes be cleaned up?? This is a great season, it's just a shame that some of the best material ended up on the cutting room floor...american networks make me sick, sydication, slam a few more adverts in there, make a bit more money. As you can see this review is kinda up and down, that's how i feel though, i'm happy it's out but sad it's cut... Alf is 20 years old...we should be celebrating...not feeling sad about these releases, it's amazing that this show was even made with it's ofbeat concept. Buy the ALF files, 3 double uncut episodes - 3hrs of uncut ALF. 1986 - 2006 twenty years on and still the best...No Problem!

Good, but out of order
I love this season, syndicated versions or not, but the episodes are out of order. On the set I have, "She's Having My Baby" is the second to last episode on the third disc. It's weird to see Kate have the baby and turn up pregnant again in the next episode.

Willie, I Slay ME
Alf, The Alien Life Form, is back on DVD. Third season was funnier than the first two DVD seasons put together <
> <
>ALF is a refine taste. Like Jerry Lewis or Mel Brooks, its the slapstick with a reflection within the laugh. The jokes are hit and miss with so many running gags, you will laugh. <

>my favorite episode on this set was Tonight Tonight..This is where ALF guest hosts for Johnny Carson (the host before Jay Leno). The Tonight show cast of Ed Macmahon and Tommy Neuson played along for laughes. Alf tries out the Carson characters of Art Fern and the Great Carnack. <

>So dont worry if it is the syndicated episodes or first run, just enjoy it <
