Dr. Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati has signed off :-(

RIP Howard Hessman.

You are one of a kind and will be missed.

Great clip, curiousjim!

To me personally, it my favourite Sitcom of all time. I grew up with all those characters. As a pre-teen/teen, my friends and watched every episode and talked about it at school the next day. You loved all the characters but Johnny was always my favourite followed by Bailey & Jennifer. 

I was a MaryAnn and Bailey guy.

Love Les commentating in the parking lot as the turkeys were falling from helicopter......." Oh the humanity of it all!"

Greatest show ever!!!

The infamous "turkey drop" episode in WKRP was actually followed by something similar in Cleveland in the early 80's (I happened to be visiting there at the time).  It as either inspired by the turkey show or in spite of the turkey show.

To celebrate the spring opening of the Cleveland Ind*ans (can I type that anymore?) season a local radio station had a contest where they dropped baseballs from a helicopter and if you caught one you won a ticket to the opener

It went about as well as you'd expect with several people injured and the loss of a car windshield and assorted property damage.

What I particularly remember was the editorial on the TV News raging that "this is what makes Cleveland a laughing stock".
