America (1986) is an interesting movie, sort of a rougher, less polished version of Network, about how people's need to be rich and famous hinders the quality of the news. Plus there's just something bizarrely inspiring about a bunch of losers who keep putting on the worst show ever and just not giving a crap, lol. It helps to have some nostalgia for early '80s NYC and fledgling local cable networks. If nothing else, the theme song is surprisingly catchy ("America, anyone can be a star, America, doesn't matter who you are")! Note: Look out for early cameos by stand up comic Richard Belzer and a young Robert Downey Jr.
