Il responsabile dei programmi di una piccola e scalcinata emittente televisiva sfida i colossi dell'etere inventandosi una programmazione fuori di testa. Film, spot e sit-com assolutamente assurdi cominciano a invadere il palinsesto attirando sempre più spettatori. I programmi della televisione diventano in breve tempo dei piccoli oggetti di culto e per lo strambo direttore è un trionfo.
