Just played on Turner Classic Movies - UHF (1989) Discussion

I know right lol ! I was pleasantly surprised it was on this channel and it was worth staying up for to watch even if it was around 3AM-ish ( IMPO lol ) . It was actually the very first time I had ever seen it ( saw the commercials for it over the years but never got a chance to catch it till now ) . Weird Al was a riot in this as the rest of the now all-star cast too . This channel is the best . Thanks roximunro for your subject post .

I just saw it LAST NIght on THIS TV at 1:00 in the morning. It was the first time in years since I have seen it. The last time that I saw some major network show this was Comedy Central in the early to mid 90's I believe it was. A long time ago though.

I didn't get to watch it, but I was kina surprised that Weird Al would be on TCM.

Well TCM is a lot better than AMC I hate to say it and UHF is a classic film to watch because you have to remember it was done in the late 80's and films from the 80's and some of the ones from the 90's are considered classics now. I watched it several weeks ago late one night on THIS TV. It was great to see a film like this on TV once again. A lot of networks will not show movies like this because they are afraid that they will lose the power that they hold over us right now in putting on what we should be watching.

TBS was the best the dinner & a movie on friday and saturday nights annabelle the host remember her:) and that other dude. they would have a surprise celeb guest pop up most of the times after comercial breaks. and doing this while prepareing a dinner and showing the recipe as well. i miss those days. pro wrestlng i think it was WCW pro-Wrestling on TBS before vince mcmanahan bought it out and became WWE now it's called Monday/Friday night Raw. Seinfeld the best sitcom to date also played before its syndication.

I am going to have to start paying closer attention to Turner Classic Movies. I heard they showed "Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains".

Ok, it's been four years since this was posted but I was still disappointed that I missed it on TCM. The funny thing is, I have it on DVD and I was still disappointed I missed it on TCM. lol I watch TCM all the time and I never see movies like that on there.
