[edit] Overview

Pet Alien is a show about a 13 year old boy called Tommy Cadle who lives with five aliens in a lighthouse. The show takes place in the fictional town of DeSpray Bay where it follows Tommy's hectic life with the five aliens from the planet Conforma who once crash landed in his lighthouse and have stayed there ever since. Unlike most cartoon aliens living on Earth, the aliens in this cartoon don't wear disguises, but all the humans except Tommy are too dumb to tell that they're aliens.

The series had 26 episodes produced, before being cancelled due to low ratings.

• Gumpers - Gumpers is a big alien with a big appetite (and not just for food, e.g. eating shoes). He likes to burp and fart and also possesses a living tooth. He is very strong, but also very afraid. He appears to be extremely dumb most of the time, but he is capable of intelligent thoughts if he strains his brain hard enough.

• Flip - Flip is an alien that looks like a parrot with a lot of energy. It's difficult to understand what he's saying, although the last word uttered in his sentences often is understandable.

• Swanky - Swanky is an arrogant, cocky and snobby alien who only thinks about himself. In the episodes, he often tries to eliminate Tommy and the other aliens so that he can have the lighthouse to himself, particularly Tommy's bedroom his Parents name Harold and Unknown Mother.

• Melba Manners - Melba is a spoiled brat who is an enemy of Tommy's. She enjoys forcing him to do tedious or tiresome tasks, thanks to her loud and shrill voice and nasty attitude. She is also an exceptionally clever opponent in staring competitions. Despite her last name, she is very impolite. Like most humans, she doesn't know that the aliens are aliens. She just calls them Tommy's "things."
