He was not on the list.
Michu Meszaros, a former circus performer who played
"ALF" in the popular NBC sitcom, has died, according to his manager,
Dennis Varga.
Meszaros, who died Sunday, had been rushed to a Los Angeles
hospital several days ago after he was found unresponsive in his home, and had
been in a coma since. He was 76.
Born in Budapest, Hungary, he stood less than 3 feet tall
and since his teens had performed in numerous circuses, including the Ringling
Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
He had also appeared in films, including Big Top Pee-wee and
Freaked, as well as on TV. He was best known costumed as the extraterrestrial
title character of ALF, which aired from 1986 to 1990. (Otherwise, ALF was a
puppet operated and voiced by Paul Fusco.)
