Absolutely my FRiend, lol!
Back in the late 80's I was working in a little radio station in North Florida and we could have given WKRP a run for it's money in terms of sheer zany, madcap adventures, everything from using a "Clapper" over an open telephone line to shut off the transmitter remotely, to the general manager accidentally announcing over an open microphone that some driver on an icy road had "hit a f***kin power pole" and knocked the station off the air momentarily, to running 6 hours of midnight to 6:00am pre-recorded programming using the audio track of a VCR tape on extended play, let me tell you it was a laugh-a-minute!
I see you signed up within 2 days of me, guess that makes us '03 alumni! :)

It's certainly up there, and certainly one of the funniest of the 1980s. There's only 1 episode of a TV show in the last 20 or so years that even comes close. It was an episode of "Fraiser" that had Fraiser trying to set up his new program directory with the housekeeper, but the PD was gay, and he thought Fraiser was coming on to him.
But I agree, and would easily say that the WKRP episode was the funniest episode on TV in the 1980s.
