You got to admit, we didn't get much eye candy on TV in the 70's.


Lynda Carter?
Farrah Fawcett?
Adrienne Barbeau?
Jaclyn Smith?
Suzanne Somers?
Cheryl Ladd?

I have it very high - if you can find it with the original music. The big tragedy of the show and the reason that most people cannot fully enjoy it today is that the music was licensed for a limited time/# of runs or whatever. The current DVD package, at least that I'm aware of, does not have much of the original music and the editing required to fix it has damaged the integrity of these packages.


I think this shows how stupid and harmful a lot of our copyright/publishing laws can be. I understand the artist wanting to get paid, but at the same time it seems to me like free publicity. Especially with an old show like WKRP where the music is all over 30 years old. Bound to get some new sales from people that hear a sing maybe they forgot about or someone that never heard it before.

A little thread hijack - I've become addicted to Battle of the Network Stars on ESPN Classic. Really brings back some memories and I love seeing the 70s/80s actresses in swimsuits.

I was always a fan of the show. Everyone lusted after Loni Anderson, but Jan Smithers was the girl to take home to mother.

Before any all-or-nothing choice I'd first try making Margaritas, finding some quality blow and asking them about their feelings towards each other.

But Bailey if that didn't fly, she seems like more of an overachiever.

Funny to hear Howard Cosell calling it at the dunking booth.

I'd put KRP as a top 5 comedy for sure in my all-time list. Agree, about these people are all spot-on for classic rock radio station employees.


And, it's Bailey, especially after that video.

It really is spot on

The burnout
The clueless GM
The pd who can change the view if his station
The hot eye candy
The snake like salesman
The news guy who doesn't know news
The token black guy
And bailey the only kinda normal who is the glue to the whole place

I go with Josh Brolin's former stepmom over Burt Reynolds' ex-wife.
