The story

Fictional television station WIDB-TV (Channel 8) experiences problems with its late-night airing of science-fiction classic Amazon Women on the Moon, a 1950s B movie in which Queen Lara and Captain Nelson battle exploding volcanoes and man-eating spiders on the Moon. Waiting for the film to resume, an unseen viewer begins channel surfing—simulated by bursts of white noise—through late-night cable television, with the various sketches representing the programming found on different channels. The viewer intermittently returns to Channel 8, where Amazon Women on the Moon continues airing before faltering once more.
