This is still the best family sitcom, it launched the lucrative and beloved career of Michael J Fox and in it's prime it was the smartest and funniest show of it's time
Definitely deserves top 10...as it is now. Should be #1.

ALF is an American science fiction sitcom that aired on NBC from September 22, 1986 to March 24, 1990. It was the first television series to be presented in Dolby Surround. Alf teamed up with Gizmo The Mogwai to fight against The Gremlins from Gremlins and Gremlins 2 The New Batch in The Great Gremlins Adventure ride at Warner Bros World to bad they took it down though it was pretty awesome to see my favorite alien character go face to face with Gremlins.
This should go first. ALF is one of my favorite shows right now. I have been watching it for 2 years already now and it's still good but I don't like it for one reason: it's always set on 167 hendale or the house. but still a good show.
ALF is one of my favroite sitcoms of all time. Too bad it went downhill in season 4 that's why they cancelled it but Season 1, 2, even 3 are good some season 4 ones too.
An alien that likes to eat cats? I still have nightmares about this freak. - michaelhughes
