Warner Bros. Television is in the early stages of developing a reboot of the classic sitcom “ALF,” Variety has confirmed with sources.
No writer is yet attached to the project, which would again explore the misadventures of the titular, cat-eating ALF–which stands for Alien Life Form. In the original series, ALF of the planet Melmac crash lands in the suburbs and takes up residence with the middle class Tanner family. The show aired from 1986-1990 for four seasons and over 100 episodes on NBC. The series has remained a part of the pop culture landscape long after it ended and is frequently referenced in other shows and films.
One idea that has reportedly been discussed for the reboot would involve ALF emerging from Area 51–where he has been held captive since the original series finale–and observing how much the world has changed since that time.
Warner Bros. TV declined to comment.
“ALF” was created by Paul Fusco and Tom Patchett, with Fusco also serving as the puppeteer and voice behind ALF onscreen. The series also starred Max Wright, Anne Schedeen, Andrea Elson, and Benji Gregory. |

Why murder my childhood. I used to watch re-runs on ALF as kid on Channel 3. Fucking Pedowood.
"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.
Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

Let's just wait and see, it might turn out good!
| Quote: | | The reboot will focus on Alf returning to Earth and joining up with a new family. A refreshing and needed revisitation that will tackle pop culture and include thematics such as post-modern gender identity, featuring brilliant comedy for all the audiences. |

Yeah, I remember there was much controversy about how a family show ended with the resident alien getting dissected by the government. But seems like they have retconned it into ALF escaping. 
1 and 2 are still amazing. |
