National Lampoon's TV: The Movie is a 2006 American parody film that features several cast members from the Jackass franchise, including Steve-O, Preston Lacy, Jason "Wee Man" Acuña and Chris Pontius. The film is a channel-surfing adventure through television programs and commercials. It features parodies of many television shows, such as Fear Factor, Cops, MTV Cribs, The Six Million Dollar Man and Miami Vice.[1] A series of over fifty sketches makes up the movie: cartoons, reality shows, fake movie trailers, fake TV show trailers, and computer animation.
