"A lot of TV stations have forgotten what "quality" means. But not Channel 62. They NEVER knew what it meant.
In the cult classic UHF, "Weird Al" Yankovic is George Newman, a daydreamer who becomes the manager of a small TV station that's losing money as quickly as it's losing viewers. Before long, he's programming shows like "Stanley Spadowski's Clubhouse," "Wheel Of Fish" and "Raul's Wild Kingdom." But can Channel 62's new popularity save it from sinister forces? To find out ... don't touch that dial!
Starring "Weird Al" Yankovic, Michael Richards (Seinfeld), Emo Philips (comedian) Kevin McCarthy (Invasion Of The Body Snatchers), Fran Drescher (The Nanny), Gedde Watanabe (Sixteen Candles), Victoria Jackson (Saturday Night Live), and a special appearance from Dr. Demento himself!"
