Say, you can't get to sleep one night, so you decide to watch some television. You reach for the remote and start flipping the channels. Yawn.

Infomercial, infomercial, stupid talk show, "Growing Pains" rerun, infomercial, major league bowling, infomercial, infomercial — hey, what's this? This looks interesting... Oh my. Oh my!

You have reached the nether-regions of cable television. Softcore pornography, or as some like to call it, "erotica". HBO, Showtime, Skinemax (errr... Cinemax), they are all guilty of filling your nightly television with porn... erotica! Erotica!

And the king of this classy genre? Well, none other than (pun incoming!) director Zalman King, the man behind the long-running "Red Shoe Diaries", as well as many other... films. Zalman passed away earlier this year, but he was definitely Jewish, born Zalman Lefkowitz.

Well, at least there is no more yawning...
