Al" Yankovic has been unsurpassed as a proven purveyor of parody
and musical satire. His classic film, UHF, a string of Grammy®
Awards and an avid (if not rabid) fan following made his 1997 television
series, "The Weird Al Show," a cosmic inevitability. Yankovic's
signature warped comedy, original songs, TV and movie spoofs, offbeat
animation, and ability to attract a wonderful and motley collection
of special surprise guests are what make the 13 episodes of this
CBS Saturday morning show a treasure chest of all things Al. Write Your Own Reviews
