PROFILES IN PANELISM: Paul Scheer Is A Human Giant
I got a chance to sit down with the great Alex Blagg and he grilled me about a bunch of stuff like HUMAN GIANT SEASON 3, ALF, HUEY LEWIS, The iPHONE and MEET DAVE….
BWE: So this new movie about Eddie Murphy’s giant terrifying head, Meet Dave. IMDB says you’re in it. What’s that about?
Paul: I’m actually not in Meet Dave, but I have an insane Meet Dave story. I was cast as one character, Lieutenant Buttox, who was supposed to be like this huge fat guy, and somehow in my audition tape, the director didn’t realize I’m like, not a big guy. So they said I couldn’t do the part cause they wanted to open on Buttox’s big fat ass crack.

“Can I just take a 2 minute break!”
I’ve been obsessed with this clip from the “2 Coreys” for the last 2 Days. It’s awesome, sad, and uncomfortable at the same time.
Basically any clip in which Corey Feldman is the rational one needs to be watched.
(also it’s pretty sweet to see that Feldman’s character from the Lost Boys still wears the same outfit 20 years later)

MORE ABOUT THE TRAGEDY BEHIND THE SCENES AT ALF…
Max Wright, who played the father on the children’s show “Alf” apparently liked to smoke crack and have sex with homeless gay tricks in his “drug den” according to the National Enquirer who got home video of him doing so back in 2001 and published photos of the crack sex party outing Wright to the world. Tanner was unable to find work after the cancellation of “ALF” in 1986. His career stalled, Wright turned to drugs and alcohol and worked as a day laborer. In March of 2001, the National Enquirer published photos of Wright smoking crack cocaine and engaging in various homosexual activities with men he picked up from the street. After the article, he went into seclusion.

Watching this blooper reel from ALF makes it seem like the cast and crew had a great time working on this show, but after doing some research about the show on wikipedia, I suddenly realized that the entire cast was dying on the inside and on second viewing the reel becomes much more ironic and way more uncomfortable.
FROM WIKIPEDIA…The production of ALF was technically difficult and demanding. All four lead actors - Max Wright (Willie Tanner), Anne Schedeen (Kate Tanner), Andrea Elson (Lynn Tanner) and Ben Hertzberg aka Benji Gregory (Brian Tanner) - admit that there was a high level of tension on the set.
Max Wright stated that he despised “supporting a technically demanding inanimate object that hogged most of the good lines.” He admits to being “hugely eager to have it [ALF] over with.” Anne Schedeen said that on the last night of taping ALF “there was one take and Max walked off the set, went to his dressing room, got his bags, went to his car and disappeared. There were no goodbyes.” Schedeen herself said “there was no joy on the set…A 30 minute show took 20, 25 hours to shoot.” While fond of her on screen children, Schedeen said some adults had “difficult personalities. The whole thing was a big dysfunctional family”. Elson, suffered from bulimia during the second season of shooting, stated “If ALF had gone one more year, everybody would have lost it.”
HERE’S MY FAVORITE TIDBIT…
Fusco is notoriously secretive about his character. During the show’s production, Fusco refused to acknowledge that ALF was anything other than an alien. All involved with the production were cautioned not to give away any of ALF’s secrets.
