Now if only there could be a sequel.

I saw this in theaters when I was a kid; decent movie. Good thing my new terrestrial channel Charge TV's airing it. Also starring Luke from "General Hospital" & a pre-famous Michael Richards.

Probably the funniest thing I really should have seen 20 to 30 years ago.

As I watched this I couldn't believe how much inspiration Rick and Morty's Interdimensional Cable took from the insanity of UHF.

Thankfully there were lulls in the movie to calm me down from delirious laughing fits. It was just so clever with its jokes, none felt dated or used overdone tropes, and feels just as fresh now in 2023 as it probably did in 1989. Michael Richard's Stanley Spadowski seemed like a proto-dumb and dumber character but played in my opinion with much better comedic acting, even though I hold Jim Carey in high esteem, the level of insanity mixed with kid-like innocence from Michael Richard never felt obnoxious.

This is a damn funny comedy movie, but only to certain people with a forgiving sense of humor.
It's just silly. Just silly weird insane stupid jokes.

Weird Al hit it out of the park with this, and I'm pretty upset there weren't more movies like this from him.

Great movie. See Kramer before he was Kramer. If it was a real tv station I would watch it all the time!

From the master of parody, “Weird Al” Yankovic, comes the brilliantly hilarious cult comedy UHF. When George Newman becomes the manager of a fly by night UHF television station his unique programming ends up turning it into the number one station in town. The writing is very good, featuring clever parodies of Indiana Jones, Rambo, Network, Conan, Gandhi, and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Starring Michael Richards, Fran Drescher, Victoria Jackson, and Billy Barty, the film has some great comedic talent. And in addition to writing and starring, “Weird Al” contributes several songs to the soundtrack. One of the best parody films ever made, UHF is wildly entertaining and full of laughs.
