TV: the Movie (2006)

A sketch based comedy film from the National Lampoon stable. It spoofs and sends up trash television; the problem with that idea is that to spoof it, the film has to be more trashy than the target, and only very skilful script writing can make that successful. The film comes over as rather childish.

There is a sequence called "Sex and the Pen" about prisoners; the main characters are four drag queens, Samantha (Art Chudabala), Carrie (Jason Mewes), Miranda (Clifton Collins Jr) and Charlotte (Jacob Vargas).

The film is also released as National Lampoon's TV: The Movie.
