Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
It is the year 2076, and in this parody, the effect of commercial sponsorship on the Olympic Games has had a logical effect. This year, the leading bidder for the telecasting rights for the games is the erotic entertainment channel, and gold medals are given for endurance competitions that are not entirely athletic. One of the film's highlights is the color commentary given to certain games by a man sounding very much like Howard Cosell.
