Johnny and Venus take an on-air alcohol test with a police officer (Jerry Hardin), with Johnny's reflexes strangely improving with each drink.
Unlike most WKRP videos, This one has been plagued with copyright claims.
Like playing Wack-A-Mole, every time it was posted a new section was flagged.

Hugh Wilson the creator of WKRP in Cincinnati hated this episode so much that he didn't put his name on the end of the credits CBS pressured him into doing slapstick but it ended up being one of the funniest episodes

There were no real weak links here. Gary Sandy played the straight man. Perhaps Bailey wasn't amazing--though she was rather gorgeous. Loni Anderson was fantastic as Jennifer Marlowe.

Back in the 80s, we had a local DJ who did this a few times around New Years. Station management got upset because when he started to get loaded, he would play nothing but ZZ Top. They tried one year to hide the ZZ Top albums and he responded by offering station swag to anyone who would bring him albums to the station.

This actually reflects reality. In the early 1980's when MADD began making news, they would enlist celebrities to drive an off road course sober and then to repeat after having several drinks. Each time they were timed and graded. One celebrity was a Nascar driver. He improved substantially AFTER having the drinks. The results were squashed; only Playboy had the guts to publish them.

Interesting. However, how many drivers are NASCAR-trained? Not a statistically significant anything.

youTube never says exactly why a video gets a copyright restriction. It seems if a guest actor is detected during upload screening, the contract studio will issue a complaint or a total block. I’ve tried to do a Quantum Leap series of videos with little success. I did a mashup of Enterprise and Quantum Leap that turned out well. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y56TZJyd2drMo4k.html
