He was born as the eldest of three sons into a middle class family where his father William Jeffery, worked as a stockbroker and his mother Joan was a nurse in the local hospital.

This environment saw his mother leaving the house, and getting married to a Dr. Brian Thicke; with whom Alan also had to live.

He graduated in 1965 from the Elliot Lake Secondary School and was announced the Home coming King, followed by his enrollment at the University of Western Ontario.

There he started as a host for his universities’ annual games and although he didn’t participate in any of them, but was very popular because of his way of talking.

He then went on to host other numerous shows like Pictionary and All New 3's a Crowd, and also started to co-host many live talk shows like Fernwood 2-Night, The Alan Hamel Show and others until 1983 when he started with his own The Alan Thicke Show. With the popularity of the show increasing widely, he was also asked to do the American version of the same show in the USA by the name Thicke of the Night.
