UHF is a 1989 comedy film starring Weird Al Yankovic as George Newman, a daydreamer who helps run the struggling independent station U62 and fills it with bizarre, low-budget programming. The film found a second life on video and among cult comedy fans, who still quote its strangest inventions. Clips like this one survive because they are short, self-contained and instantly recognisable to fans, even when the joke makes little sense to anyone hearing it for the first time.
