A guy is married with two children and buys a new satellite with cable box with a remote control. He and his wife along with a neighbor a believe get sucked into the channels by the oversize satellite in the backyard. They go through different scenes based on the channels they end up on.

Hey I've been trying to remember this movie and it's driving me crazy. I saw some of it when I was a kid and I'm not sure if it was an 80's or 90's film, but I figured a forum for either would be a good place to look. Sorry I don't know much about it, all I remember is that there was maybe three guys staying together, possibly at a beach house or something, two that are supposed to be full of themselves, then the nerdy roommate. Of course there's some hot chick that the ego guys want and they bet that they can get her before each other, while the nerdy guy goes off to do his own thing. I remember that one guy takes pictures of her through the window and has a friend crop them for him to make it look like she's gotten out of the shower and is coming towards him while he's lying on the bed; the other guy pretends to be a fitness instructor so that he can tape record their session and pretend that the sounds they're making while stretching are "other sounds". Then I remember them arguing about something and I think the nerdy guy comes out of his room to tell them to 'keep it down' because it turns out that she met the nerdy guy and gets with him I think? If anyone knows anything I'd appreciate any info, it's driving me crazy! I have three older sisters and one of them was watching this at one point, but none of them can even think of an actor or anything to go by.
