I'm a bit younger, but roundabouts the time we first got cable...say 1982-83 somewhere in there, the USA network used to show Night Flight. That was where I was first exposed to the Church of the Subgenius. It haunted me for years until the internet finally allowed me to figure out just what the hell it was that I had been watching all those years ago. Also, for about a year or so in third or fourth grade I watched Mousercise every morning on the Disney Channel. I was, and am still intrigued by the fact that the host, Kelly (or Callie or Kellen...I never understood), had very small breasts, but a very large ribcage, and thus gave the appearance of having four boobs. Oh...and for the year or two that we had HBO, I think Porky's I or II had to have been on 10-15 times a day (in between runnings of Fast Times). I'm sure that my ability to quote any of those movies nearly word for word attests to the fact that I was not exactly supervised in my television viewing.
