“I knew about this movie because is said itu0026#39;s very similar to the 1989 Weird Al vehicle UHF, and itu0026#39;s true: both are Orion Pictures productions and tell the story about a little tv station near bankruptcy that is saved for a colorful bunch of show starred by a bunch of misfits.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis one stand by its own talking about how the televangelists put the eye in the airwaves to $ell their me$$sage$ and get a lot of untaxed money.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGood laughs about the sudden conversion to u0026#39;piousu0026#39; content of all the programming grid. At that time it was very obvious the deity all that people adore is the almighty $, isnu0026#39;t?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSome scenes may be a little bit questionable by today standards.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePretty nice music here, with Dr. John and DEVO (as DOVE).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI recommend it.”
