I’m the houseboy.

I always sort of hoped that Hirsch was secretly robbing that greedy old snob blind. Just on general principle.

Agreed !

Can’t remember the episode but Mrs.C had a guest over and ordered Hirsch to make coffee and instead of making her the usual swill he made an epic pot😆!

@@johnschaefer2238 I don't either, but I do remember Mrs C complimenting Hirsch on the coffee and asking why he didn't make that normally. Hirsch replied, "Well, Madame, today, we had guests in the house." Leaving Mrs C a little put-out. 😆😆

It's more likely the yutzes in New York offices who handle the scheduling. Cali is only for filming. I too was disappointed when KRP was canceled.

Kinda like Mrs Carlsons WKRP. 😂

The problem was the rising cost of music rights.

Most memorable laughs for sure ❤

Nowadays instead of a button that would be a tattoo in a prominent place. May as well go all the way and do the whole line: So deeply warped even I get it. Bet that'd be quite a conversation starter.

The Bengals need to spend the money to give Burrow what he needs.

@MLC Rider Agreed

Now if we could do the same with the music...

@@brianjacob8728 I don't understand. What does that mean? 🤔

I don't think the Bengals are going to this Super Bowl. I pick the BILLS! Go BILLS!

You’re welcome. I guess kids now days would think it all pretty ancient, phones with cords and big vinyl discs. Funny that we all still like the music.

@@DaveNarn Musically, I still live in the 70s & 80s. As a matter of fact, I never left. I've acquired other musical... 'flavors' along the way, but the 70s & 80s tunes are never far away. I think this is where Dr. Johnny & I would've been on the same page. One thing, though, digging back into this series... It's fascinating how much society bought into the Loni Anderson brand. She was gorgeous, & that voice was angelic. But, that 80s hair.... 2 hours to do her, I bet. (I know from experience. My old girlfriend, back in the early 90s, was still carrying her 80s hair with her. Took her 1½ hours to do her hair, then it couldn't be touched until the end of the night. 🤣)

@@waden9815 Lol, I hear ya. Musically I live anywhere but now, real talent and originality is scarce. And that's being nice. Used to be I could press the search button once or twice on my radio and find a great tune, now it'd take a half hour to find something good.

i blame characters like this for having me continually disrupt the class...

@@DickDiamond74 But you had fun though.

Some of my fondest memories were of those unexpected and well-timed comic interludes courtesy of several class clowns. Provided a welcome break from extremely dry and boring or intense material.

@@msr1116 Indeed, the disruptive forces of mirth deserve our deep and abiding respect.

@@Itelkner ....God love the goofballs in this world.....we so need them for comic relief. Long ago, I worked with a very reserved, polite young guy who attended Mass weekly.....and he turned out to be one of most hysterically funny, goofy, wacky guys I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.

I liked the way Hirsch first asked Johnny, 'It is doctor, isn't it?' ;)

@@DaveNarn after everyone leaves: Mrs Carlson: “Hirsch, this coffee is delicious”. Hirsch: “That’s because we have company Madame. When it’s just you and me, the recipe is a little different”. No one could play Hirsch the Ian Wolfe did.

Glad you liked it. The last section was from the final episode. I’ve seen a lot of the full episodes uploaded on youTube. But Fox had a copyright block on that one, maybe due to one of the actors in a scene - I don’t know. WKRP could have gone on four more years.

@@DaveNarn I’ve seen other KZfaq channels post this without blocking. It’s a great scene nonetheless!

@@DaveNarn I think someone might have thought they were discussing illegal tax evasion. There was at least blackmail going on.

BUT bailey was americas Sweetheart!

Ha! Yep. Just like my first apartment ... the shag rug, the appliances, all in that color combo. Thanx for the memories, Dave!

Avocado green had been around since the late sixties/early seventies. Surprised it lasted as long as it did, considering these tones were so reminiscent of Fall.

You're welcome. Mrs Carlson’s profit and loss lecture sounds more like the network axing WKRP 4 years ahead of it’s normal run. Prophetic, I wonder if the writers saw it coming?

@@DaveNarn Seems like you can kinda get the idea of a rough ride coming when you're riding high and the network idiots start moving the show around so people can't find it. I'm glad this ep was the finale, as it turned out, bc it was a perfect ending.

@@echoecho3108 the head of cbs didn't like ed asner (Lou Grant) and howard hessman being activists. so they separated the shows, so they would both do badly and have a reason to cancel both. unfortunately it worked.

@@ralph0901 That sux. Such stupidity. It always boils down to politics. Too many good, no, make that great, shows got killed bc of network idiocy, and crap shows live on. So sad.

@@ralph0901 I have heard the same.

Hirsch (Ian Wolfe) stole the show tormenting Mama Carlson (Carol Bruce) the few times he was featured. I have the complete series on DVD; always binge-worthy even though some of the music is not original.

Hirsch!!!!

@@c17nav She comes out all happy and finds "Doctor" Fever standing there. Classic!

Thanks! I've never me him, but I've always enjoyed his work.

I wonder if they that they are talking about tax evasion.

Looks like they forgot the tin foil.

@@julien.4617 🤣

I'll use this in the next request video - she's great. :)

No one thought Johnny Fever was 'dumb'. At first glance, your impression might be, here's a 'Stoner' gone to 'seed'.

I don't think Johnny is dumb, they just think he's stoned out of his gord all of the time.

Why does this show feel more modern and cutting edge than today?

@ Nature and Physics. Maybe because of character development and the fact that the show doesn’t revolve around setups for cheap punchlines.

Thanks man. That was the best I could do, glad you liked it.

@@DaveNarn ....I rather liked the ever -changing, textured picture effect meself. Quite trippy.

Problem being the large hike in music royalties (when it came to renewing them).

Is that why ME TV drop it , I loved the reruns, it took me back when it ruled comedy television, it was and still is the best ! LOL !!!

Oh yeah, Bill Dail the writer who played Bucky Dornster. I've not seen much of Sylvia Sydney, but that's a good story

ALL of the shows from the 70's hold up, 1billion % better than ANY show today!

The rights to the music make it impossible to show any more.

@@a2ndopynynThat explains a lot. Thx

"A very interesting turn, don't you think ?"

good one, lol

Let’s not forget that other 70’s gem Taxi! Remember Jim taking the test for his license at DMV? “ What do you do when there’s a yellow light?” That had me in tears!

Yes, the last episode of the original series. :(

I’ve got the DVD box-set from Shoutfactory. KZfaq blocks a most of the episodes with guest stars. I tried to upload the episode of Mr. Carlson putting coke in his shoes instead of foot powder. YT blocked the whole thing because of the guest star.

He was good as Septimus. I liked that the Romans lived in modern times too.

Or milf

Hey user you killed me that one Steve McGarret’s hair. Don’t know if you’re a 50 fan but in 50’s first episode an actress named Nancy Malone played McGarret’s sister. She was from Queens Village NY. My mom and her were friends. She starred as Paul Burke’s girlfriend in that show. Boy was TV great in the 50’s through the early 2000’s!

He did. 12:12
