UHF (1989)
George, un perdedor con sueños de grandeza, tiene un golpe de suerte cuando su tío gana una emisora de televisión ruinosa en una partida de póker. Cuando el tío dice que tiene que vender la emisora para pagar sus deudas de juego, George se apresura a intentar comprársela, pues ha conseguido colocarla con las mejores audiencias gracias a su peculiar programación. Pero su pícaro rival parece tener la misma idea.
