Did the cast of ALF get along?

Published in TV Show Production 1 min read

No, it has been widely reported that the cast of the popular 1980s sitcom ALF experienced significant tensions on set.

In the years following the show's cancellation, actors Max Wright and Anne Schedeen, who played Willie and Kate Tanner respectively, confirmed that the filming environment was often stressful and that tensions were very high.

The unique production challenges likely contributed to this atmosphere. For instance, performers had to be constantly mindful of their surroundings, including remembering the exact placement of doors, to avoid accidental interference with the puppet operation or set pieces. Such precise logistical demands on a daily basis could easily add to the pressure and contribute to a less harmonious working environment among the cast and crew.
