Wayne's World
Wayne's World is the 1992 comedy classic that somehow made the leap from Saturday Night Live sketch to genuinely great cinema — and it absolutely holds up. Mike Myers and Dana Carvey are Wayne and Garth, two heavy metal-loving slackers running a public access TV show from a basement in Aurora, Illinois. When a slick TV executive tries to buy their show and sell it out, the boys go to war to keep it real. It's quotable, it's anarchic, it's self-aware before that was cool — and it launched a thousand "Party on, Wayne" impressions that have never really stopped. If you somehow missed this one, or haven't seen it since the 90s, it deserves a proper revisit. Watch Wayne's World on Fetch — and give it the treatment it deserves on a big screen Hisense TV.
