USA should bring back Up All Night.
Edited on Fri Apr-17-09 01:56 AM by Drunken Irishman
So many Friday evenings were spent watching those crazy b-horror movies and Rhonda Shear prance around in some skimpy outfit. Friday the 13ths were always awesome and Jason would make a 'surprise' visit to the studio.

Aww, memories! :(

3. Yes, I'd stay up all night (ha!) to watch that. I think The Critic was also on USA.
Then they decided to dump the fun stuff and went more mainstream with their Law and Order and blockbuster films.

Looking at my guide, this is what USA will show tomorrow (Friday) night:

7:00: House - :eyes:
8:00: House - :eyes: :eyes:
9:00: Law and Order - :chung chung eyes:
10:00: In Plain Sight - Meh
11:00: Law and Order - AGAIN?
12:00: Second in Command - Finally, a movie! But meh.
2:00: Paid programming - This is about the time I'm finding my way home. Having USA Up All Night on at this hour would rock my socks off.
4:00: You guessed it, Law and Order.
5:00: Paid programming - HA! One hour of Law and Order sandwiched between infomercials. That's interesting.
7:00: Becker

WTF is wrong with USA? Seriously!

4. I loved that show. Ain't shit on overnight any more - sucky reruns
or Infomercials:
Baby Can Read!!!
Male Enhancement!!!
Malibu Pilates!!!

Pretty much covers it.:boring: :puke:

Weekends especially Saturdays are just as bad lately. TV used to at least be mildly entertaining, but they don't even try anymore.

5. Yup. It's trash.
Especially when it's the same thing over and over again.

I mean, I love Law and Order as much as the next guy, but let's shake things up a bit!

8. Oh, I remember that! I had a lot of insomnia back then, and it was great
to have it around to pass the time.

13. That's what made those movies awesome. Ever see Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 or Troll 2?
