Benji Gregory vs. Ben Hertzberg

Post by ALF »

Hey guys,

I was just reading the People Weekly magazine issue of June 19th, 2000, (the "Where are they now?" one with a section about ALF) andin it they credited Brian Tanner as "Ben Hertzberg" instead of "Benji Gregory". Now I read that Gregory was his middle name, but I'd like to know why they didn't use his last name in the series. :?: Oh yeah, and there's one more strange thing about Benji throughout the series. Compare these two pictures and tell me what you think.

What are you hitting at, the different hair colour? I don't see a big difference, but in my defence, I just woke up.

I guess he used the name Benji Gregory, cause it had a sound to it. Like a stage name, it happens all the time in show business.

Yeah, I was implying the hair color. But why did it change it the course of 3-4 years? I mean, the pictures in the People Magazine revealed that he currently has red hair again!

I have no idea, maybe the cast members kept calling him "red-head", or "Yo, carrot top" or something :) Maybe that's why he wanted to leave the show desperately :P Nah, just kidding. I don't know why.
