"You're the one whose out of this world--sweet baby!
You're the one whose out of this world
I'm spinnin' in an orbit I ain't never been in
'Cuz you're the one whose out of this world"

Again, I need to get out my box sets and watch these episodes, but just for the sentimental value of this episode I give it the full amount of stars. This is one people were talking about at school the next day. I think for a lot of fans this was first stand-out ALF episode. ALF is dressed and/or looking like rockers of the day (including Bruce Springstein).

A fun episode!

A full 5 stars from me. The rock video was excellent! The song's catchy and I hum the tune about once a day. I especially love the first line "you're the one who's out of this world... sweet baby!"

And have I said the video was excellently done? ALF looks suave! XD

This is one of my favorite episode. The music video is fantastic, and it's actually a really great song. :D

Another strong 4-star rating from me. Hilarious episode and a kick-ass song and video made by ALF, which in turn is hilarious just as much as it is catchy. They really should have released the song as a single back in the day, it would have been a big hit, I'm sure of it.

Agreed. This is probably the most memorable of all the ALF episodes ever made, at least for non-fans of ALF. They'll definitely remember this one.

P.S. Who gave this episode a 1-star rating? :shock: I believe it's the first episode that has gotten such a low rating so far.

Not me! I have not rated it yet, but it will be a 4 or 5 (not sure yet).

This is one of the episodes I had on tape as a kid so I must have watched it hundreds of times back then. I gave it five stars. I still know the song by heart.
