ALF will be on WGN Tomorrow Night

Post by ALFsince86 »

WGN is celebrating all things 80's this week. Monday night the old ALFer is back with four episodes; including the Gilligan's Island episode. I think I have all of the episodes they're showing on DVD, but I plan to watch anyway. It will be nice to see ALF back on Monday nights. I sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's happened since 1989.

ALFsince86,

Thanks for information, but please follow up with clarifincation on actual day/date for "tomorrow evening". Since your post is dated Monday, 7/7/08. at 2;38 AM "Forum time", likely it was still
Sunday evening, 7/6/08, where you live; therefore, by "tomorrow evening", do you mean Monday evening, 7/7/08, or Tuesday evening, 7/8/08?

Note: WGN is Chicago TV station that is broadcast to most areas of the U.S. on cable.

Sorry about that.

By tonight, I mean the night of July 7, 2008. It also looks like he'll be on later in the week, when you go to wgn.com.

The times are Eastern Standard, he's on tonight (July 7, 2008) from 8pm-10pm.

I am happy that reruns of some ALF TV Series episodes are seeing airtime on WGN's tribute week to the 1980's, but I also can't help but feeling very sad that somehow a deal was not attempted, or able to be negotiated, for ALF (himself) to host airing of the episodes.

That would be cool. They are also showing/have shown "Family Ties" and "Cosby Show". At least someone at WGN, when they think of 1980s television thinks of those three shows (I'm including "ALF"). It restates how terrifically popular he was during those years.
