Ummm, I wonder if you are watching the same ALF sitcom we all watched in the 80s. I'm thinking your description is a little off. Hilariously funny, self-absorbed, cat-eating alien is stranded on earth and takes refuge with a caring family, who takes care of him, while hiding him from the authorities as he plots unsuccessfully to get home. I especially liked the Christmas mas special where he learns all about the meaning of giving at Christmas. I also still repeat one of his catch-phrases when ever I tell a joke that no one laughs at but I find hilarious. "I kill me!"

A cat's revenge on Alf!

PETA and Terrorism
If PETA didn't support the terrorism they've associated themselves with, they would condemn it.
Every time ELF and ALF try to murder somebody, e.g. by lighting professors' houses on fire while their families are sleeping, it's an insult to all progressives and rationalists.

Being a member of ALF and PETA, we believe in the liberation of all animals, without exception. However, I do see the need to have well funded tax initiatives to pay for their care in the wild.
Crappy 80s Televsion - Alf

Firefly proves "darn" is more badass than "This is Sparta!"
The series is set in the year 2517, after humans have arrived at a new star system, and follows the adventures of the renegade crew of Serenity, a "Firefly-class" spaceship. The ensemble cast portrays the nine characters who live on Serenity. Whedon pitched the show as "nine people looking into the blackness of space and seeing nine different things".
The show explores the lives of people who fought on the losing side of a civil war and now make a living on the outskirts of the society, as well as the pioneer culture that exists on the fringes of their star system. In addition, it is a future where the only two surviving superpowers, the United States and China, fused to form the central federal government, called the Alliance, resulting in the fusion of the two cultures as well. According to Whedon's vision, "nothing will change in the future: technology will advance, but we will still have the same political, moral, and ethical problems as today.
Mal - Latin, for bad.
I found this while searching for the reason firefly was canceled.

Dear Joss,
After that power brunch we had yesterday I just thought I'd send you a memo and let you know that I've talked with the other executives here at FOX and we've decided to give your little space western idea another chance. However, and I'm sure you'll understand why, we ask for a few simple adjustments to your marvelous show idea before we can continue.
1. We need to have things blow up more often. Something should blow up at least once in between every commercial break. Two or three things blowing up in between each commercial break would be even better.
2. The women on the show should kiss the men on the show more often, and each other just a little less (as in, not at all).
3. The name "Firefly" doesn't seem to properly convey the idea of a space western. We recommend you rename the show "Space Western" so that the viewers don't confuse your show with a PBS documentary about fluorescent beetles.
4. The focus groups who reported to my assistant after viewing one of your episodes said they didn't really understand who the bad guys were. We recommend you have all the good guys on the show wear white hats and all the bad guys wear black hats, so the viewers are better able to keep track at a glance just who they're supposed to be rooting for.
5. We recommend you add a new character to the show. A cute little girl. Focus groups respond best to dark haired girls who are about nine or ten years old. We know this is a science fiction program so we recommend you make her a robot who speaks in a monotone manner and takes anything other characters say very literally, to comical effect.
6. The women on the show are wearing too many clothes.
7. You put the show in outer space but I don't recall there ever being any actual aliens showing up. So we recommend you get some of your makeup guys from the Buffy tv show and have them doctor up some extras to make them look like Little Green Men or something. Also make sure they're wearing black hats.
8. Drop that Ron Glass guy. He's a bore.
9. Focus groups reported that the rooms inside the spaceship looked too much like a poorly furnished studio apartment. We recommend you repaint all the sets to make them look more like those cool sets on that old Star Trek show. Make sure there's a lot of bright flashing lights and "beep beep" noises in the background.
10. The women on the show need to be prettier. Go wherever you got that cute Gellar chick and hire some more who look like that.
11. Get in touch with the Jim Henson Company and add some aliens that are actually muppets. Kids like muppets. You can't go wrong with muppets. Or maybe get that guy who does ALF. He's been doing some phone commercials recently, but I'm sure he's available. Make ALF a guest star every few episodes and maybe we can get the 1-800-COLLECT guys to put a commercial on your show.
12. Make the 'future' of the Earth a little brighter. People wanna believe we're gonna do better. Right now the show's outlook is just a little depressing.
Of course you'll understand that we will not be offering any more money for these changes. In fact in order to broadcast your fine television show on our network, we ask for a simple retainer of $250,000.00 per episode, to defray the costs regarding a lack of interest among advertisers.
We look forward to working with you again.
Sincerely,
S. Skankowski

Horrible tattoo collection, HORRIBLE I say
Ok, I'm pretty darn sure I'll never get a tattoo, I mean, how do you pick something that you'll still like having on yourself in 50 years time? I can never think of anything that I wouldn't eventually tire of.
And these... these are horrendous... 'Hey, I like Alf, that was a great show', watching a re-run 5 years later 'Oh god, this show sucks in so many ways... what have I done?'
Popular culture stuff permanently marked onto your body... never a smart idea... just never. (Unless perhaps you were creator of said piece of popular culture I guess)
