Here’s Donald Duck and the Gorilla, a Disney short from 1944:

The short was famously included on Disney’s Scary Tales VHS compilation, which is where so many of us first discovered such classics as The Skeleton Dance.

An old fave!

Here’s the first episode of ALF, from 1986:

During the first few seasons, I was totally obsessed with this show. It may have been the first prime time sitcom that I was ever truly invested in.

I don’t know if it comes through in the pilot, but the writing and the jokes during ALF’s first season were pretty damn great. Unexpected, weird and sometimes even edgy. The show would later evolve (or devolve) into something with a little less bite, but only as an adult am I able to tell the difference.

By popular demand, here’s an episode of Inspector Gadget:

(Okay, nobody demanded it.)

I chose this episode because it apparently has something to do with haunted castles. I love haunted castles.

Enjoy!
