Pray TV (1980)
Een falend televisiestation wordt opgekocht door de gladde TV evangelist Marvin Fleece (Dabney Coleman) en deze verandert de naam van de zender in K-GOD. De programma's blijven in feite hetzelfde, maar tussendoor wordt alles overgoten met een religieus sausje. Jezus, Jozef en Maria komen met enige regelmaat voorbij op het scherm. De zender wordt een enorm succes en Fleece wordt enorm rijk van alle reclamegelden en merchandise.
