When you're asked to work on a Saturday, you'd think it'd be easy to say, "No."

Why must I insert my foot in my mouth and agree to work a Saturday? There's no real merit to it for me. I am going to sit here, watch some people who've never worked in my area do a job that I can do myself, and then go home. Is there any real purpose to this? I mean, besides getting time and a half for it? Sigh, me and my bit mouth.

Had a conversation with a co-worker today about the necessity of cheesy forms of entertainment. Basically, I live by a principal of embracing all forms of cheesiness, because you never know when all irony and silliness might dry up and life will become dull and boring. Basically I explained to him the dream I have of a show I like to call, "Saturday Night Cheese".

"Saturday Night Cheese" is a direct descendant of the much scorned guilty pleasure of the 90s, USA Network's "Up All Night with Rhonda Shearer". Gilbert Gottfried hosted the Friday night-edition of this beloved spectacle of all things cheese, but we won't mention it because Friday's show was dedicated to more mainstream movies like "Kindergarten Cop" and "Nuns on the Run". Ms. Shearer's show, on the other hand, was geared more towards what I like to refer to as "hideously unadulterated cheese". While Gilbert would go on and on about Corey Feldman's acting prowess in "The Lost Boys", Rhonda would give us insight into Corey's motivation to take on a role such as the lead character in that box-office-smash sequel to the cult classic "Rock 'n' Roll High School", "Rock 'n' Roll High School Forever". Or the absurdities of evil car-wash magnates in such wonderful, albeit highly censored classics like "Bikini Car Wash Company" and its runaway hit sequel, "Bikini Car Wash Company 2".

This is what I am talking about. This is what's lacking on TV today. Ted Turner saw the need for such a show on TNT and had one going on Friday nights in the late 90s, and a local channel here in Indy used to have a late-late show on Saturday nights called "Drive In Matinee" that would show some of the cheesiest of the cheesy, but it was no match for what I have in mind. I want a pay channel, like HBO, that is dedicated to movies such as what I have mentioned above, but in its uncensored glory. One thing the 80s had going for it with the B-movies was the over-exuberance for gratuitous nudity, with little to no necessity for it in the plot development. Who can forget such celluloid greats like "Hamburger: The Movie" or "Ski School"? And it doesn't just stop there, oh no. We don't need all the boobies, faked sex scenes, and dorky guys winning the hot chicks over when we have a huge breadth of crappy 80s comedies. I'm talking Teen Wolf (and I guess its sequel if you have a strong stomach), Back to School, My Science Project, Midnight Madness, and other greats that didn't rely on unnecessary boobs being flashed or almost shots of man junk. And let us not forget the king of all things cheesy....Troma Films. Man, we have the Toxic Avenger series, the Class of Nuke 'em High movies, and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Can it get any better? It sure can. There are endless possibilities for a station like this...if only I had the money to get it going. Alright, back to work I go.
