| Plot |
| UHF is the film debut of comedy-rock satirist Weird Al Yankovic , who also co-wrote the screenplay. George Newman ( Yankovic ) and his friend, Bob ( David Bowe from The Cable Guy ), are fired from their jobs at Burger World. So George decides to take over channel 62, a failing local TV station that his Uncle Harvey ( Stanley Brock ) won in a poker game. George turns it around into an overnight success after letting the janitor, Stanley Spadowski ( Michael Richards from Seinfeld ), host a kid's show. George then fills the broadcast day with bizarre programming, bringing the ratings up and saving the station. Soon, rival station CEO R.J. Fletcher ( Kevin McCarthy ) of channel 8 threatens to sabotage the successful station and George must come up with a way to save it. Only loosely constructed around this story line, UHF is mostly a series of TV, movie, and music parodies strung together and played for cheap laughs. UHF also stars Victoria Jackson , Emo Philips , and Fran Drescher . — Andrea LeVasseur |
