Please, Marge. How often can I see a movie of this caliber on late night tv?
— The Simpsons · 1989

What it means
Our interpretation.
Homer pleads with Marge as though a late-night movie were a rare event. The word 'caliber' does the comic work, dressing up whatever's on with great seriousness. His plea makes television time sound precious, something he simply can't miss.
