By far, one of the funniest, most clever television shows in history. When I was going to college studying radio broadcasting around 1990, my production instructor said that all the characters on this show do exist in real life. Exactly as you see them. It only reinforced my desire to work in radio.

According to the late Yasser Arafat, when he appeared on the Merv Griffin show with Lee Liberace and Loni Anderson, he stated that WKRP in Cincinnati was the number one TV show in all of Palestine. He also compared suit jacket linings with Merv but wasn't able to see Liberace's.

I'm _just now_ recognizing Momma Carlson (in the pilot episode) as Sylvia Sydney, who also played the no-nonsense case worker in Beetlejuice. I watched WKRP after high school in the 80s. I saw Beetlejuice in the theater a few times, in 1988. Whoosh! Yes, I can be slow on the uptake. 😂

The closing credits theme music is still a red hot hunk of rock n' roll, with not one intelligible word in the lyric. I mean, is there any actual words? It's like another language. Whatever he singing he seemed to mean it, and it's the coolest TV show outro tack ever in my books. Does anyone know who did it, and what the deal with the words was? Was it a parody?

@ChorusArtists 15 күн бұрын

I'll answer my own question: The closing theme, "WKRP In Cincinnati End Credits", was a hard rock number composed and performed by Jim Ellis, an Atlanta musician who recorded some of the incidental music for the show. According to people who attended the recording sessions, Ellis didn't yet have lyrics for the closing theme, so he sang nonsense words to give an idea of how it would sound. Wilson decided to use the words anyway, since he felt that it would be funny to use lyrics that were deliberately gibberish, as a satire on the incomprehensibility of many rock songs. Also, because CBS always had an announcer talking over the closing credits, Wilson knew that no one would actually hear the closing theme lyrics anyway.

The part about the announcer talking over the ending credits anyway is gold and fits the show's subtle irony perfectly - thanks

I was seated next to Gordon Jump on a flight from LAX to St. Louis (he was headed there to film "Maytag Man" commercials). We had a mutual friend in Bill Dial, who helped create the show, and we had an interesting conversation. We talked about how we both loved Sylvia Sydney. She was wonderful in the 1930s and even more delightful in the 1980s.

People laugh at comedy because of group laugh and delivery, you can go to a comedy club and a comedian can tell dry jokes and nobody will laugh. Change the delivery and people will be queued to laugh and others will join in. The funniest comedians, George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld can bomb completely with poor delivery

@@DaveNarn Yes, sound is a perceptive queue. I watch baseball alone with the sound off in the background and it's a much different experience than with a group of friends or live. The crack of the bat for a ball that will drop to an easy out 20 feet from a home run fence will get the crowd cheering, then silenced.

This was an outstanding show. Such a brilliant cast and writers. These are the kind of characters you talk about 50 years after the show is off the air. So many jokes and one liners. This was comedy at its finest. And the best theme song. I still remember all the words.

Sometimes Venus appears in the morning at the station and talks with Johnny. It is a possibility that Venus might work a split shift, that is works 10 - 2 and then comes back at 4 and works until 8.

Of course, the last episode was actually a retcon of the entire series up to this point. The whole premise was to increase ratings and make money. That’s why they originally brought in the Andy Travis character and changed the format. In the end it was essentially revealed that the station kept all those ridiculous characters because they wanted the ratings to be bad and to lose money. Interestingly, they also did something of a similar retcon to the backstory of the Venus Flytrap / Gordon Simms character during the series.
