ALF Files DVD

[mmurray500]

I just purchased the DVD and played it for the first time today. What a hoot! But...I could not get the commentary (special feature) to work. The cast bios read fine, but no audio commentary on the "Try to Remember" episode. Has anyone else experienced this? I am wondering if the DVD may be defective? I am also contacting the seller.

Are you sure your DVD is an original? There have been some sellers selling "fake" DVDs on eBay. Definitely contact the seller to see if you can exchange it...in the meantime I'll put out some "feelers" and see if anyone else has experienced that same problem. If I find anyone who has I'll post again. Good luck!

Thx for the reply. After checking with a friend of mine, I found that my "problem" was "operator error". Once I set up the commentary correctly, it was a real hoot to hear. The dvd was new, never opened. I had contacted the dvd manufacturer/distributor, and was pleasantly surprised to hear that the company was willing to process a return/replacement. I hope that future ALF episodes will be here soon.

That's good to hear! I really LOVE that DVD (except how they changed the beginning in Try to Remember - the whole thing with the electric mixer, they must not have felt that it was suitable for children). Glad to hear you got it working. Hmmm, I think I might go watch mine right now lol



Sorry for the late initial reply...my computer crashed early last week (I've had to borrow my parent's computer when I've got the time). Oh well, live and learn.

How was the begining of "try to remember" changed?

Dane,



In the "original" episode of "TRY TO REMEMBER", ALF takes an electric mixer with him for his bath, hoping to improvise a whirling hot tub, and suffers memory loss from near electrocution.



In syndicated versions of this episode, ALF takes a hand mixer with him for his bath, hoping to improvise a whirling hot tub, and suffers memory loss from a fall where he hits his head.
