Synopsis

After losing yet another job, George ("Weird Al" Yankovic) wonders if there is any career that can handle his outrageous personality. When George's uncle hands him the deed to a local TV station, George creates a series of television shows based on social satire and hyperactive humor, with the help of his best friend, Bob. However, a rival station's bitter CEO tries to destroy George's wacky programming, forcing him to fight back. Directed by Jay Levey, "Weird Al" Yankovic's manager, who also co-wrote the script with Yankovic, was unsuccessful at the box office upon its' release in 1989, but has since gone on to become a cult comedy classic hit and an early role for Michael Richards, who later went on to play Kramer on the classic TV show "Seinfeld". The cast also includes Kevin McCarthy, Victoria Jackson, Emo Phillips, Stanley Brock, Gedde Wantanabe, Billy Barty and Trinidad Silva in his final role.
