Time to bring back one of my
favorite anecdotes ever: Charles Bukowski gets cable, first thing he sees is Eraserhead, he assumes all things on cable will be that wonderful, never enjoys another program again

BUKOWSKI: We got cable TV here, and the first thing we switched on happened to be Eraserhead. I said, "What's this?" I didn't know what it was. It was so great. I said, "Oh, this cable TV has opened up a whole new world. We're gonna be sitting in front of this thing for centuries. What next?" So starting with Eraserhead we sit here, click, click, click-nothing.
