Fishing with John.
Fishing with John was a 1991 television series written and starring John Lurie (Stranger Than Paradise, Down By Law). It's a kind of mockumentary fishing show where John Lurie, an untrained fisherman, takes various friends (Jim Jarmusch, Matt Dillon, Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe, Dennis Hopper) out on fishing excursions, while they chat and bicker, the narrator voices over bizarre, dramatised and irrelevant information regarding the nature of the fishing trip. It's one of the most brilliant things on television (computer screen?) I've seen in a while and it made me fall in love with John all over again (he's so cute and giggly!) It probably doesn't help that the amazingness of Jim is involved (lately have been attempting to re-watch all of his back catalog). He even sings the theme song, fiiiishing with johnnnnn.
