Although the exact date of Willie and Kate's wedding is unknown, they do celebrate their 22nd wedding anniversary in the 4th season, implying that they were married in 1968. The Tanners reside at 167 Hemdale in Los Angeles, California and their phone number is 555-4044. They own a 1982 Ford station wagon. Their next door neighbors are the Ochmoneks. Several people have wanted to stay or visit at the Tanners' home, one of the most challenging obstacles for the family. Those people include the Ochmoneks, Brian's friends (such as David who requested a sleepover), Maura Norris, Neal Tanner, Kate's mother Dorothy, and Whizzer. The Tanners have always tried to hide ALF from everybody they know, but several people do find out, but keep it a secret. In Project: ALF, it is revealed that the Tanners were relocated by the Federal Witness Protection Program after the capture of ALF by the Alien Task Force. They first moved to Mozambique but relocated to Reykjavik, Iceland because they were displeased with the school system. It is unknown if ALF has been able to find his way back to the Tanners, but the government officers have mentioned that the Tanners have no communication available yet.
  • The Tanners were a family that lived in Coronation Street from 1939 to 1984 and one of them, Dennis Tanner, returned in 2011. Originally, wedded couple Arnold Tanner and his pregnant sixteen-year old wife Elsie moved into 11 Coronation Street just before World War II, but Arnold left to join the navy leaving Elsie to take care of her newborn daughter Linda and later her son Dennis. Dennis was born as a result of Elsie being raped by Arnold after discovering she was had been having an affair while he was away. Arnold left in 1945 after the war, continuing to leave Elsie to raise their children. Her son Dennis grew up to be a troublemaker and on the wrong side of the law, and Linda went on to marry a polish man called Ivan Cheveski when she was eighteen. Dennis ended up in prison in 1960 after robbing a newsagents with his pal Jed Stone but attempted to mend his ways when released, and got himself a job, although he got into trouble now and again. Linda and Ivan had a baby boy together, Elsie's first grandchild Paul in 1961, although both Linda and Ivan's relationship strained now and again. Also in 1961, Arnold returned after an absence of fifteen years for a divorce in order to marry his girlfriend. Elsie gradually accepted after Arnold threatened to divorce her on grounds of adultery after a fling she had during the war. But Elsie got married again in 1967 to an old war flame named Steve Tanner, an American soldier. She briefly went to stay with him in America, but returned a few months later when they realised their romance was just a dream. Steve was murdered a year later by friend Joe Donelli, although it wasn't revealed until a few years later. Elsie's son Dennis flew the nest when marrying Jenny Sutton and moved to Bristol, but he ended up in trouble again - getting arrested for conning old age pensioners and serving two years. Elsie later married drunken Alan Howard, and moved away, but she returned when having enough of him. After spending her years at 11 Coronation Street, Elsie eventually left with her old flame Bill Gregory for Portugal and later got married, and this time it was a successful one. They spent the rest of their lives together until they died in a car crash in 2004. By 2011, Elsie's son Dennis became homeless, but ended up moving in with his old flame Rita Littlewood (now Sullivan) after crossing paths with her and the two eventually married in 2012.
