WKRP only ran for four seasons? Seemed like (at the tme) that it was on forever!

Nice write-up. I always enjoyed Hesseman’s characterizations.

That episode and “I thought turkeys could fly” will live on in TV history.

The one where he drinks on the air to try to show the impact of drinking on reflexes was another classic. He was doing just fine until he went to the bathroom and saw the WPIG pig.
