The ALF set was apparently seething with tension and troubles. The technical demands of such a program were especially wearing on the human cast, many of whom hated playing second banana to an inanimate puppet. ALF starred in the 1987 television special ALF Loves a Mystery, in which ALF revealed NBC's Saturday morning lineup to the viewers. [2] For the first two seasons of the show, there was a little person inside of an ALF costume for any full-body scenes. At one point, 33-inch-tall Mihaly “Michu” Meszaros was listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s shortest person. And while life in his native Hungary as a youth was brutal (thanks to unscrupulous circus owners), a day in a furry costume under hot studio lights may often have been worse.Permanent Midnight, a film based on Jerry Stahl, tells the story of his writing career, including ALF. ALF is changed in the film to Mr. Chompers. [48]
