I just wanted to let everyone know that I miss watching this on The USA Network on the weekends on a show called USA UP ALL NIGHT! I use to watch Hell Comes To Frog Town and many other great cult classic movies.

It is a shame that NBC bought the station of The USA Network and changed the programming that had been there for many years you know. Last year would have marked the 20th anniversary of USA UP ALL NIGHT had they kept it running.

I miss the B movies that they showed on Friday and Saturday nights every weekend. Now they do not have anything good on at all. I think it is nothing but crap! So me and other fans of the show have a petition that we are trying to get fans of the show to sign.

If you watched this when you were younger and loved the movies they showed and have family and friends that were fans of the show please sign to help out.

Thanks again!

I always thought it was Rhonda Shear's decision to move to New York to do the show (for more money I thought)-- a very bad mistake because all of her girl friends from the B-movie group couldn't be on the show and it wasn't the same format. It was really a delight and a shame whoever moved it to NYC.

Well I always thought that Rhonda Shear hosted USA UP ALL NIGHT from California and Gilbert Gottfried was the one who hosted from New York. I did not know that they moved the show from California on out to New York.

Thanks for informing me about this because I appreciate it. Yeah whoever did that was not being very smart at all to move the show.

Let us not forget that TNT had "Joe Bob" Briggs "Monster Vision" which in many ways was just as good if not better than "USA Up All Night". I enjoyed Rhonda Shears' segments, I think they were on Friday nights. I was always highly annoyed when I would turn on the TV expecting Rhonda's fleshed toned watermelons to see Gilbert Gottfried whining on the set, what a turn off. He always will be Iago the parrot from Aladdin.

Yes back in the day when both USA Network and TNT was a lot cooler than what they are now I do remember Monster Vision with Joe Bob Briggs. Those were some good old days to watch low budget B movies. They do not do that anymore unless you happen to live near a big city that has a huge variety of channels that you can watch all different types of movies and all.

I watched USA UP ALL NIGHT on Friday and Saturday nights with Caroline Schlitt before Rhonda Shear replaced her as host on Friday nights and Gilbert Gottfried who started hosting USA UP ALL NIGHT originally just on Saturday nights. I watched it mainly for the movies and Gilbert Gottfried was not well famous quite yet doing movie roles and all.

If he was working it was for small parts in films. He was great as a host for a lot of the movies on USA UP ALL NIGHT! He knew what he was talking about along with Joe Bob Briggs. I miss watching this a lot!
