Because of the big success of the TV show "ALF", the producers decieded in 1988 to create two animated ALF series. One is just called "ALF" and it's about ALF's time on Melmac and the other one is called "ALF Tales", and that's the one this page is about. While the "real" ALF always appeares in the... More beginning of each ALF animated episode to give a little introduction to his memories, ALF tales consists completely of animated scenes, there's no real life part in it.

ALF The Animated Series was a spin off of the live action ALF series and followed ALF's adventures on his home planet of Melmac with his family, his girlfriend Rhonda and friends Skip and Sloop. ALF The Animated Series first aired on NBC in September 26, 1987 and was produced by DIC Entertainment and Saban Productions in association with Alien Productions.

Gordon Shumway, last known survivor from the planet Melmac, crash-lands his spaceship into the Tanner family's suburban garage. Willie dubs him "ALF", short for Alien Life Form. After convincing a military officer that they are not harboring a space creature, the Tanners decide to take ALF in as a member of the family.
