 I grew up on UHF TV - I'd love a campy cable channel comparable to the
 cheezy b-movies, "pro" wrestling and live roller derby broadcasts.

 UHF, by budget and transmission constraints, had a local quality you
 don't get any more.

 For a while in the '90s,cable providers needed to provide local
 access, and you could sign up to essentially rent one of their studios.
 A friend of mine had a talk show on cable - they already had a set with
 a desk and couch. He had friends fill in as the band and interviewed
 guests. We went to one of the filmings, it was a lot of fun.

 More low-budget was "Larry, the Security guy". He did private security
 for an apartment complex, and mounted a vidcam on the hood of his
 go-cart. He'd do monologues while driving around the complex and
 interview people at night in the poolhouse.

 Lots of campy fun back then.
