Used to be my favourite show as a kid Alf. Sometimes we just don't realise what these actors go through in their personal life. Thanks for doing this video Scott. I learnt so much about these celebs over the years and its all thanks to you Scott. You are a true Gem to this earth 😊
I loved Alf as an 80's kid. I appreciate hearing the "Real Stuff" from his life because we are all humans and none of us are perfect and we make mistakes throughout life and it makes us who we are, death doesn't change anything. You handled it respectfully and it made him seem more human and real in my eyes.
He brought me alot of joy as a child. I truly don't care what he did in the privacy of his home/wherever so long as he wasn't hurting anyone. Which, he wasn't. Thanks for the great memories Max.
I loved him and ALF’s relationship. They kept me rolling. Even my grandparents i their 60s never missed an episode. Thank you for taking us to visit Willie Tanner ❤
Scott, not only are your vids very interesting, but what I like best about your narration is that you have a heart and don't denigrate the subjects in your stories for their human failings, which we all have. Thanks, man.
I totally agree, I loved Alf would have enjoyed having a real one LOL, I also have the stuffed Alfs, my Son bought me Alf things for my birthdays and Christmas because I liked him so much, I need to find a home for them as my Grandkiddos ages 17 and 19 aren't interested, I also loved Baby Sinclair years later, we sure need funny wholesome shows like them !
Ich liebte Alf schon als Kind und habe die Serie komplett auf Dvd. Werde sie im Herbst, wenn das Wetter wieder ungemütlich wird ansehen. 🙂 Danke für den respektvollen Umgang. RIP Max. 🕯🌹
ALF is my absolute favorite sitcom of all time, never has a show been developed with that type of bizarre humor, the interaction between Max Wright and Alf is priceless, Max's way of playing Willie Tanner is one of a kind and I watch the entire 4 seasons, at least once a year with my brother whom also has it as his favorite sitcom ever =) RIP Max, you still make us happy whenever we watch your work.
My daughter loved Alf, she was born in 1986, and she watched the show as a little girl, I even bought her a stuffed animal Alf. Who knows, maybe the cancer that he had did something to him, to where he wasn't thinking right (drugs) or didn't care anymore. I noticed his mother died the same year as him. RIP Max Wright.
I am so happy that you have done a video about Max Wright. He is one actor I didn't think anyone would remember. He was great on ALF. My mom recorded every episodic. My favorite episodes were The Dummy and The Cockroach. That was funny. I try not to focus on the bad stuff and I don't trust what the tabloids says. Great video Scott.
I try not to care either but picking up homeless men to have sex and smoke crack with them is pretty sick. This was a multi millionaire as well so he had other options lol
I love how respectful Scott is!!! I loved the show when I was little. Artie Lang definitely got into trouble himself, but its so nice to hear when someone turns themselves around and lives a safer, more healthy life. All the actors on A.L.F. found it frustrating just because of the difficulty of shooting around a puppet. I had an A.L.F. lunchbox in second grade. 🤣
Thank you very much Mr. Scott for covering sensitive topics the was you do and for showing and reminding the viewers of the history of so many (famous) people, the sad (real time) events (and crimes). Sending kindest regards from a small village in Germany overseas! Your empathy ist truly one of a kind!!! Thank you!!!
Like Gael García Márquez once said. Every human being has 3 lives 1. Public life, private life, and a secret life. I sometimes would watch Alf. Great video,Scott.
Sadly; it's not uncommon for men in Hollywood who may be gay to have a wife and kids. Going all the way back to the big Studio days; actors were told explicitly to get married or else be fired and blacklisted. This is still going on today but as society is more accepting of all lifestyles it's dissipating.
This is very true but it wasn't just done to men, women were told the same as well. It's very sad that we as a people can't let others do their job and go home to do what we want for ourselves....to live life on our own terms. Maybe one day people will realize that no one owes you shit and if you don't like something but it isn't hurting anyone leave it alone move on live your own life. Also some of these women and men these actors and actresses are forced to marry are unaware of what is going on same as their kids, you gotta feel for them as well. Bad situations all around.
Not really.. some wives even suspect their husbands are Bi-Sexual. Except they don't have the courage to wear their own truths. Many men who are married are secretly sleeping with homosexual Men. They are embarrassed and refuse to embrace their "true-selves" unfortunately. .v
@@gigigiseleworld now to be fair I said some don't know not all and they said it's not uncommon for this to happen but yes you are right some have feelings of what is going on or even find out and stay for many reasons. My point was that it was all very sad that ppl have to pretend for others and bring others into the lie especially children
@@gradetrend8138 Lol 😂 you’re right maybe not all ages but let’s say most liked it or at least watched some episodes! It was hard to avoid as it was very popular
@@gradetrend8138 I think if you ask people today to name a few tv shows from the 80s this would be one of them! Alf also had the merch which I doubt others did! I couldn’t watch it today ha ha even though I agree it was well done and acted in it’s day! To me it’s like Full House, Different Strokes, Cheers… you didn’t have to watch it but we all knew they had a huge audience!
I'm just echoing what others have already said! Scott, I truly respect the amount of research that you do for each of your videos and how respectful you are, especially when handling delicate situations.
I just discovered your videos(3 months)and I find you entertaining and down to earth. You have this platform and you use it wisely. Thanks for sharing.
LOL a former co-worker of mine was obsessed with Alf and the show. [...a grown man....ha ha ha] I can "hear" Max's voice, and Alf's voice just thinking about the show. It was a cute show. Thanks for making this video and the funny memory it brought me. Max just went down the same path of many, many others, especially the 80's and 90's. OX
I am French became Alf fan art 50 years old. I listen Alf only in English. Love all in this sitcom. Max right was a Real great actor, i played si well. Histoire voice❤ Williiii Txs for your very interesting video
I loved the show ALF... and in 1987 being diagnosed with lymphoma myself.. I underwent some surgery and woke up from surgery back in my room ..to a large ALF stuffed character toy in my bed with me...brought to me by my husband...and I still have that stuffed toy now.
I had no idea he was a Michigander. Alf was one of my top 5 shows growing up. Honestly so many actors have some sort of scandal. At least he wasn’t hurting anyone but himself
Max Wright was also in the sitcom "Norm" with Norm Macdonald. He was a great comedic actor with great timing whether he liked it or not. Sorry to hear the last years of his life were so lousy. RIP.
I got Alf for my birthday when the show was popular on TV. I still have my Alf! I buy him clothes, summer, winter, holidays, and take him with me when I go somewhere. I seat belt Alf in the front passenger side in his mini car seat. Sometimes I forget to bring him back to my room and friends laugh when they see Alf sitting in my car. I lovvvvvvvve my Alf and I would save him if the house was on fire. That's how much he means to me. (If people can like animals as humans, I can love my Alf.) 🐻
Alf was a weekly staple in our house and I loved that show!!! His history is shocking because I'll always remember him as a good, wholesome father figure. However, we all have demons that we don't want to share and, in a twisted way, it's reassuring that no human is immune to having them.
You’re always so respectful of your subjects. Thank you for that. I always learn something new about the people you honour as well, and this video was no exception.
Hi Scott!! Honestly, Alf annoyed me and I never liked the show but I learned a lot about this kind hearted man. He was a good actor and what one does in their bedroom is their choice. We shall not judge. Gay or straight, we are all in the world together. Excellent upload ❣️😊 🕊️🙏❤️
Alf was my favorite show at the time and it's still my top favorites. I didn't know about the personal life things. He was a good actor with great presence on screen. Glad he came around to thinking that it wasn't so bad being on the show. I would go to a convention, if i knew Alf actors were there. May he rest in peace and I'm glad he was able to go to the actor's home, to spend his final days.
Alf was great sitcom show. It’s one of the types of sitcoms that deserves a cult following. I remember watching Alf and I loved the show. I wish we could get some more of these kind of family oriented sitcoms today.
Just found your channel and I'm hooked going back and watching all of these. You do such a good job showing respect to all of these people. Kudos to you, good sir!
In Hollywood, if a human failing is discovered about you, it's headline news. Most of us are not scrutinized so ruthlessly. Having said that, Scott, you have an incredible gift, through empathy and compassion, to HUMANIZE these people for the rest if us.. I appreciate your gift more than you know, as it seems so rare today. Great vid!
What a sad story about Max! I never watched Elf,but I know it’s hard for you to tell some things that people go through! You have a kind way to tell the stories of others! Alway appreciate you taking us along with you on these videos! Always love listening and traveling with you 😌
Watched ALF as a kid & remember thinking it was an odd show, but still had an ALF doll for some reason. Honestly, was unaware of what happened to Max Wright. Thought you did a respectful job explaining what is public information without bias. Hope he and his family are at peace.
Thank you for sharing this 😊 I love watching your videos especially cuz you always give the background story and info you are amazing and I love how respectful you are 🤗 much love and respect Love and Light Blessed Be 🌛🌝🌜
ALF is definitely my favourite TV show. I've been very poorly and bought the boxset online to help cheer me up. Made me laugh and help me forget my illness. I then TH-camd the cast of ALF to see what everyone is doing now and your video was the first one I found. So sad. RIP Max
I was a huge ALF fan (still am!) I collect vinatage toys and just managed to get a vintage 1986 ALF plushie!! I’d not heard of this about him, so it’s interesting to know, and sad really that he had to hide that part of him self.
As long as he was happy! I grew up watching Alf and I even had the Stuffed Toy at one time lol. To be a kid again 🤣 Thank you for being so inclusive and non judgmental. It actually surprises me how many of us born in the 70s were able to grow up without absorbing the stereotypes/ homophobia that many of us were raised in💜Thank you for all your wonderful Video. Sending Love from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦
I'm watching this one now! I wonder how much he felt shame for his orientation, his marriage ending, how his kids felt about all that, and so using drugs helped numb the feelings while he expressed his true desires while dealing with a world that was still very insensitive to who he was. You handled it well man. Thanks again Scott. Zapp really is a fun group to listen to. Their story is a tragic one. If you get to Dayton and/or Hamilton Ohio, there's a story there. Listen to Computer Love and More Bounce to the Ounce! Very fun stuff!
He should get all the credit.. without him alf is not as funny ..cause he was the best partner ..just watch the alf project film ..without max what was really the point of it..there was no closure with the tanners 😢
You know Scott I have to say it again. You created a great story from doing your homework and research. I was not sure if I really wanted to watch this video because I was a fan of the TV show but not of the actor and your storytelling abilities captured me and kept me watching the whole thing. And always say to you thanks for all that you do and thanks for creating a topic on which most people find fascinating and that is death . One of your biggest fans and your favorite mortician lol . Tom in Ohio
Just FYI the music playing at the beginning of the episode was so beautiful, I LOVE melancholy moody music. A HUGE thank you for turning me onto Scott Buckley's music. Another ALF documentary I watched today had a commenter mention how G-rated they went with Max Wright. So I googled Max Wright and here I am. Thanks for your video, it was fantastic.
@@jerseytomato100 So did or do you ever consider the fact that some evil people (obviously not all) are evil because of lack of being loved? You are right to a degree, with truly evil people no amount of love will ever help or change them.
ALF brought a lot of joy to people. At the time the show was on, I was working at a shelter for neglected and abused kids. I can tell you that many a child enjoyed being curled up with a big bowl of popcorn, having some well deserved laughs because of that show.
He was an adult with adults.....so their business...... Scott you are so senisitive and informative.... you strike a perfect balance. appreate your hard work...
Scott your voice and presence is so soothing and comforting. Thank you for doing your vlogs. This was such a sad story. It's so sad that people feel that they have to hide and be afraid. It should be a celebration to be who you are. We are all made uniquely beautiful and different. We have our own special mold that doesn't belong to anyone else. ❤💖
Great video, like usual Scott. You have a beautiful way of looking at and talking about humanity. How we should love and respect each other, no matter our flaws and quirky ways. Thank you for sharing.
I loved ALF. Your GO FOR IT WILLY actually made me emotional (you sounded JUST like him!)...which in turn embarrassed the crap out of me. 😂😂😂 I loved Max. He was a fantastic actor.
I just stumbled upon your channel recently & have been sorta binge watching alot of your videos. As a fellow "Canuck" from Ontario, I just wanted to congratulate you for the way you handle a somewhat difficult topic. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks & keep up the good work 👍

Dumbest ur learned something not learnt something lol😂
I had a crush on his wife on the show, still do ,lol
I'm very proud to say that, in my 20's, I became a charter member of the ALF FAN CLUB!!!
I loved that show!

What a sad story about Max. Thank you Scott for telling and sharing this video about Max. May he rest in peace 💞

We loved Alf!! I still have the stuffed animal!! Honestly, we need more shows like Alf now. We loved all the wholesome family shows.

Better writers back then

I watch Alf every morning.

Good Evening Scott 🙋🏽. Thank you for taking the time to share this with me ‼️. Have a awesome amazing beautiful weekend ‼️😃👍🏽❤️

I was not sure if I really wanted to watch this video because I was a fan of the TV show but not of the actor and your storytelling abilities captured me and kept me watching the whole thing. And always say to you thanks for all that you do and thanks for creating a topic on which most people find fascinating and that is death . One of your biggest fans and your favorite mortician lol .

Just FYI the music playing at the beginning of the episode was so beautiful, I LOVE melancholy moody music. A HUGE thank you for turning me onto Scott Buckley's music. Another ALF documentary I watched today had a commenter mention how G-rated they went with Max Wright. So I googled Max Wright and here I am. Thanks for your video, it was fantastic.
Well, if it made him happy and it was all between consenting adults then who are we to judge?
Everyone deserves love and to be happy in life 💜 🇬🇷
No, they don’t. There’s lots of evil people in this world. Evil people deserve love?
@@jerseytomato100 So did or do you ever consider the fact that some evil people (obviously not all) are evil because of lack of being loved? You are right to a degree, with truly evil people no amount of love will ever help or change them.
I grew up watching Alf. I loved it
Great video! Poor , Max. Wish things were better for him. Also, Alf really is my favorite show of all time so we definitely do exist.
I love Alf and always will.
It was so funny!
I don't care about his personal life. Max was a good actor and that's his legacy.
ALF brought a lot of joy to people. At the time the show was on, I was working at a shelter for neglected and abused kids. I can tell you that many a child enjoyed being curled up with a big bowl of popcorn, having some well deserved laughs because of that show.
He was an adult with adults.....so their business...... Scott you are so senisitive and informative.... you strike a perfect balance. appreate your hard work...
Scott your voice and presence is so soothing and comforting. Thank you for doing your vlogs. This was such a sad story. It's so sad that people feel that they have to hide and be afraid. It should be a celebration to be who you are. We are all made uniquely beautiful and different. We have our own special mold that doesn't belong to anyone else. ❤💖
Great video, like usual Scott. You have a beautiful way of looking at and talking about humanity. How we should love and respect each other, no matter our flaws and quirky ways. Thank you for sharing.
Alf used to be one of my favorite shows as a kid. Thanks for the video. You are amazing with your videos.
It’s part of his history. Respectfully done.
I loved ALF. Your GO FOR IT WILLY actually made me emotional (you sounded JUST like him!)...which in turn embarrassed the crap out of me. 😂😂😂 I loved Max. He was a fantastic actor.
I just stumbled upon your channel recently & have been sorta binge watching alot of your videos. As a fellow "Canuck" from Ontario, I just wanted to congratulate you for the way you handle a somewhat difficult topic. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks & keep up the good work 👍
Thank you so much! Where in Ontario are you?
