WKRP In Cincinnati

Post by colchar » August 18th, 2009, 1:30 am

WKRP was one of the greatest sitcoms of all time. Discuss.
". . . when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford."

There is no better episode than the turkeys being dropped from the sky for their thanksgiving promotion.

WKRP is a classic, but greatest of all time? Not so sure it can crack the top 5. Here's mine:

MASH
All in the Family
Seinfeld
Frasier
Everybody Loves Raymond

Would have included Simpsons but decided it didn't count since it's animated. Also unfairly excluded the black and white classics like Honeymooners and I Love Lucy since they were before my time. Bailey was sneaky-hot.

And in tribute, I might have to bring some duct-tape to work tomorrow to mark off an office around my cube like Les Nesmond....

I loved the I Love Lucy shows!!!!! Never was much of a Honeymooners fan, in comparison, but it was okay! :-bd :-bd :-bd :-bd
