Benji Gregory, Child Star of ‘Alf,’ Dies at 46
Benji Gregory, former child actor and star of the 1980s sitcom 'Alf,' has died. He was 46.
Dead of heatstroke at 46. The poor guy also got a medical discharge from the Navy in 2005 and had a service dog, so that may have been a contributing factor, whatever the issue was.

One of the best TV shows of all time... as long as you don't rewatch it now.
It's honestly pretty god-awful, but the actors were not to blame for that. They all did a fine job, including Benji Gregory, which was impressive for his age.
Like I said, do NOT rewatch it. It is just awful.
But when I watched it as a kid it was hilarious and I loved it.
This will make you really not want to rewatch it-

I watched it in Spanish and it was awesome! But agree, don't ruin Alf. We all want to remember how awesome it was.
La única forma en que Alf puede volver, es en forma de fichas.
Yes! Did you hear! Alf is back!
In pog form!....pog!! Thanks! Where these little plastic circles that came in as toys in your favorite Doritos or whatever snacks. Just FYI if you're ready this and got no insight. Then Bart's friend Millhouse said that on the Simpsons. This is a very important historical event that must be on every book. Specially history books.
Puck?
That’s not poggers.
"pog" dude.
From the episode where Bart sold his soul to Millhouse.
Let me guess, it's full of racist/stereotypical tropes that I didn't catch when I was 6 years old?
Some of that, though not as much as you'd expect, plus some sexism thrown on top. Mostly it was just really bad writing and the same joke over and over again.
So your average 80s/90s sitcom?
Yes.
laugh track plays
Alf tried to eat the family cat
Doesn't hold up?
