If you loved watching this movie then you would love what USA UP ALL NIGHT use to show on the USA Network at one time! It use to show a variety of movies like this but then also show some movies like B movies, cult classics, horror movies, and a few mainstream movies as well.

Who can forget about the hosts that I want to mention about as well! You have a beautiful blond who is great eye candy to look at on Friday night who hosted USA UP ALL NIGHT and then you have on Saturday nights Gilbert Gottfried as well who made you laugh when it was commercial breaks or he would talk about the movie as well that we were watching.

If you remember all of this then you should check out the website that my friend and I created in dedication of USA UP ALL NIGHT and the fans of the show as well! While you are there please take a few minutes to sign the petition to bring back this great show on the weekends!

Also let your friends and family know about the website and the petition that you will find on my signature.

Thanks again!

Rob

Yep, remember this one on Up All Night. This actually played pretty frequently on there, around '91-'92. I even remember this coming back to the USA Network a few times in the middle of the night around 2002-2003.

I remember seeing this as well on USA UP ALL NIGHT on the weekends as well back in '91 and '92 as well. Now I was busy at the time in the Navy to realize that Pretty Smart was shown in 2002 and 2003. I watched the USA Network at that time but did not pay attention to the programming on USA Network though.

Yeah, in the summer of 2002 (maybe it was 2003) USA started showing some of the movies from Up All Night and Saturday Nightmares on Friday nights at 3 in the morning. They showed Pretty Smart, Return To Horror High, Blood Diner, Neon Maniacs, Breeders(1986), Fraternity Vacation, Summer Job. Probably some others too. It didn't last long. They just played them. I thought for sure they were bringing back Up All Night but obviously nothing came out of it. Im guessing the contracts under those movies to play them hadn't expired yet so USA gave them one last go as late night fillers before being completley done with their old cataloge of movies. I remember a few months later Blood Diner, Neon Maniacs, and Breeders(1986) then went to the SCI-FI channel for a couple weekends.

Yeah I know what you mean because I remember in 2003 when I was getting out of the Navy and living in the apartment that I am currently still living in and they showed The Stoned Age which I saw on USA UP ALL NIGHT! This was during the afternoon. I was surprised to see it on. This was back when USA Network use to show movies in the afternoon during the week. It would have been nice if they would have brought back USA UP ALL NIGHT!

I thought that I would post this to let everyone know that thnks to everybody who has signed the petition to bring back USA UP ALL NIGHT has helped out a lot because some major network has signed Rhonda Shear to host a realit show called PANTY RAID and if you want to check it out then go here. Lets keep working on getting USA UP ALL NIGHT back on the weekends back again!

I agree.

I was a newlywed in 1993, when I first discovered UAN!
I LOVED this show. All those cheesy '80's movies and totally 'B' flicks were hysterical!
They should re-run these sometime! Perhaps someone can create a USA classic station or something.

Why did the calliope crash to the ground? Was it blinded by the light?

That is cool that you were a newlywed in 1993 when you first discovered USA UP ALL NIGHT! I loved the show as well and that is why I am trying to get it back on Friday and Saturday nights once again!

Yes all of those cheesy 80's movies and totally B flicks were hysterical and great to watch! Actually Rhonda Shear owns the rights to USA UP ALL NIGHT and if USA Network were to re-run this in syndication then that would mean that USA Network would have to pay her to be able to do that.

The best thing possible would be for a network to pick this up and work out a deal with Rhonda Shear to create a new USA UP ALL NIGHT! That is the only way to go to be honest with you.

I also thought that I would let you know that the petition is currently at 13,550 signatures. That is still a lot of signatures but I know that in order to get this show back it would have to be a lot larger.

Rhonda Shear is coming up with a reality show called PANTY RAID with her husband, her, some friends all wearing a line of her lingerie that she has created. Rhonda is waiting for a major network to pick it up and it is in the process of being finalized right now.

I just thought that I would let you know about it.

Hey Rob. Yeah the first time i saw Pretty Smart was on, you guessed it, Cinemax! That channel was like the one to watch before Up All Night premiered on USA.

You also forget Joe that back 30 years ago a lot of the premium channels were great to watch because a lot of the films that were shown on USA UP ALL NIGHT were first shown on HBO, Cinamax, Showtime, or any other premium channel. I can remember watching a lot of the films on there long before USA Network had USA UP ALL NIGHT.
