A weak movie premise

I am pretty sure there was at least one and may even have been a series of movies under the Bikini Carwash title. I am sure it had a deep, meaningful premise....namely, "hot-bodied girls in bikinis getting soapy and wet washing cars for guys to ogle." Not exactly War & Peace or even A Christmas Carol... but probably more entertaining for a certain segment of the populace. That would be the segment that, while some people watched Dallas was watching Debbie does Dallas. Not as enlightening...then again, how enlightening could a show be whose best remembered cheesy plot device was someone getting shot in a dream sequence?

What has always surprised me is that, as weak as the movie premise is, nobody has ever capitalized by opening a bikini car wash. Even the most densely aware person must note the "cheerleader car washes" always seem much busier when the teen-age girls are...well...wearing bikinis or short shorts and tight tops to wash the cars than when the cars are washed by...well, anybody else in any other garb. Like it or not, the bottom line truth is there are plenty of men who will pay to watch a pretty woman in skimpy clothes.

Of course, you could be like Australia and go it one better...the car wash is done by topless girls and, for the right price, you can get a lap dance...
