I would say these are my favorites. Probably not exactly in this order--I just listed them as they came to me. I think Season 2 was probably the best in the ALF series.

You're not very good with episode titles, are you? I'm the same with most shows.

[Mystiness EX]

Not in any particular order (I was just looking down the list of threads in this sub-forum):

La Cucaracha
It Isn't Easy Bein' Green
I've Got A New Attitude
A Little Bit of Soap
Mother And Child Reunion
On The Road Again (probably my ultimate favourite in this series)
Don't It Make Your Brown Eyes Blue

That's a lot of favourites. XD

"Strangers in the Night"
-My brothers and I used to recite large portions of this episode, particularly the phone calls between ALF and Willie.
ALF: Hello
Willie: ALF, why are you answering the phone?
ALF: I live here!
Willie: Where's Mrs. Ochmnoek?
ALF: She lives next door!

"Help Me, Rhonda"
I love the Melmac scenes in ALF's dream. The only glimpse we get to see of it on the live-action show.

"I've Got a New Attitude"
The seance scene is just hilarious.
Dorothy: You don't have to make rude noises!
ALF: That's okay, I don't mind.

"The Gambler"
Kate: Is Nick "the Fish" a violent man?
Dorothy: Yes, but he's fair.

"Weird Science"
This one has a consistent build of humor up until the climactic point when Consumer Ed suddenly shows up.
I think my favorite scene is when Mrs. Lyman shows up and Willie has an awkward conversation with her, after ALF called Brian's teacher pretending to be Willie.
Willie: What if there were no explorers, no dreamers? Would Galileo have sailed around the world?
Mrs. Lyman: Galileo didn't sail around the world.
Willie: . . . never mind.

Most shows have such a rocky first season, but to me ALF's first two seasons were it's strongest. Picking my favorites for this one is a piece of cake, because I watch them over and over with my DVD and iPhone.

-A.L.F. (It's the Pilot, so I think by law it needs to be on my list since it's the first time we are introduced to our furry pal.)

-Strangers in the Night (Love the music in this one, as well as the great narrative ALF gives and the overall vibe of the episode.)

-On the Road Again (What's not to love about camping with our favorite Melmacian?)

-Lookin' Through the Windows (Like Strangers in the Night, I just really like this episodes vibe.)

-Come Fly with Me (ALF's obsession with the talking toaster = priceless.)

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned "Looking for Lucky." The part where ALF imitates the Risky Business dance is classic. There's many other episodes in this season that I love so I'll just list a couple. I love the pilot episode because it gives us a great introduction to ALF and I love the "Wild Thing" episode because of ALF's crazy behavior and cat chasing.

[samstokes80]

Yeah, actually I'm surprised I didn't mention it. When I was a kid, I think it was my favorite one.
"I won't rest until I find the one-armed . . . I mean, until I find Lucky."
