Agreed. They had a great chemistry together and played off of each other perfectly!

Thanks to the entire cast of WKRP for giving us all these great characters and years of entertainment.

I always like Jan Smithers...and still do today😛...

Jan was really cute. I always felt like Loni was overdone. She reminded me of a streetwalker. Jan had a wholesome clean beauty.

One of the best sit coms ever put on tv. Funny as hell!

Greatest TV series EVER. Dr. Johnny Fever is my altimeter favorite.

Said right, written wrong

Loved the show. Was so sad that it ended so soon. Johnny was always my favorite but I loved them all.

Everytime I think of this show I recall the episode with Les Nesman and the live turkeys, one of the funniest things on tv

Venus looks great! I was a little kid when this show aired. Now my mom is 78 and I’m glad she’s still here because we watched together.

It amazes me how most of the cast members eventually moved back to the towns they were originally from after the show ended and didn't stay in Hollywood! Without a doubt, Dr Johnny Fever is my favorite character from the show!

Why cut off the actors halfway through their sentence?

WKRP was one of the two best sitcoms to ever grace television screens (Golden Girls was the other one). I absolutely loved Herb Tarlek. Somewhere out there, a Volkswagen was missing it's seat covers.

I think the best Herb episode is the one where he sells the ad for some kind of energy stimulant. A high school kid takes too many and dies. Herb goes on the air to apologize for WKRP running the ad. It added a lot to his character.

The show wouldn't be any good if even one of the cast members was not there. Great group of players! No other show has been able to replicate what they did. Really miss this one.

Jan Smithers is so pretty!

i loved anything that involved Venus and Johnny. They were hilarious together.

Oh what a great tribute to these great actors! All of them such a wonderful show. My favorite was Gary Sandy he was like the only normal one! Ha ❤️😂😂

I loved them all..very enjoyable.

Excellent show, fantastic cast.

Fav....Johnny Fever !!

I still watch the Turkey Drop scene now and then. Hilarious 😆

I met Gordon Jump once. We were at the same hotel. He was there with Maytag. I was there with the IEC (International Edsel Club). I met him right after breakfast. I asked him if he was the actor? He replied yes. I then introduced myself. My name happens to be Richard Jump. We happen to be very distant cousins.

This sitcom takes me back to my childhood. Good memories of this show.

A great show that has many happy memories !

I was impressed with Johnny (Howard Hessman) but liked them all. Favorite episode was when Gordon threw turkeys out of a helicopter for Thanksgiving. 🙏❤😅

One of the best. I still watch every now and then on stream. My favorite beside the Thanksgiving episode was when Less got dressed up for a date and Venus came in and said "Get down Lester" and Less squatted down with a scared look on his face. Oh and when he brought up Schistosomiasis to Johnny.😁

One of the best tv theme songs ever...I'd sing along every episode...

You put gary Sandy's head on someone in a wheelchair, more click bait bs

Howard Hessman/ Johnny Fever 🤘 & Jan Smithers/ Bailey 🥰

there's a WKRP tribute radio station in Raleigh North Carolina

Thank you. It was difficult.to learn of the cast members that have passed. But will always be rembered the good Characters they play. my favourite couldn’t just pick one. ❤❤❤ them all.

Jan Smithers is …..and !!!always will be my alll time favourite

How very respectful the commentator is of those who have passed. Very charming and endearing.

All of them. It was the best of times, and those years.

One of my ALLTIME favorite shows. As a kid in the 1970's, when Andy unveiled the KISS poster I was HOOKED! I have been a musician since the age of 6 and I used to look at the walls on the show for current albums by some of the biggest bands of the day! No other show like it! Question though, I know Richard Sanders was BORN in Harrisburg Pa (my lifelong home) and would have graduated when my Father did. But I thought I read his family moved from Harrisburg. Are you sure he still resides here now?

Great show, love them all.

My favorite episode was the turkey dropped from a helicopter show. That incident really happened, and it was a radio station that sponsored it. My favorite line from the entire series was Gordon Jump's line, "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." It still makes me smile. Great show!

Less Nessman always cracked me up!!

The narrator has such passion!

Nice to see the updates on the cast, despite some factual errors and cutting off what someone is saying. loved the show.

As a teen back then. I loved the show. Even my parents got a kick out of it.

I loved it!

Being a retired sales guy, Herb is my favorite! The epitome of a flashy, type A salesman. Les was also an over-the-top character.

Venus! He was awesome but the whole cast was simply amazing! I was really young when the show came out but I remember watching it with my family. We still laugh till this day! Thank you for this video!

Jan was awesome

All of them .

I loved them all but that Herb Tarlek was hysterical! He was my very favorite.

I was so touched by the sadness in your voice when announcing the ones who have passed. Could you at least let them finish a sentence when showing a clip?

I didn't think that sounded right when he said 2023.

Gordon Jump was pilot. He flew small aircraft and he used to fly out of Moraine air park in Moraine Ohio. He was close friends with Harold Johnson. Harold Johnson was the biplane pilot for the great turkey drop. Gordon Jump was a very funny man. He used to have everyone rolling from his jokes at the airport. RIP he was a kind man.

The Dr....the Dr Johnny Fever is immortal

Johnny Fever was my favorite, all the way down

I went on a date with Gary once. Nice man but weird. His family was very proud of him.

Loved this show especially the flying turkeys….

Great show. My Mom used to like it(she didn't watch a lot of tv). Jennifer ran the place. Not sure how many people picked up on this.

Good video but the production could have been better having the interviews louder.

Me Scott Hayes favorite character in WKRP in Cincinnati is Doctor Johnny Feaver .

LOVE ALL OF THEM ....... BUT THE BEST EPISODE IS THE TURKY DROP 😂😂🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍❤❤❤❤

Stop with click bait. Also, word "feeling" is not pronounced "filling".

One of my all time favorite shows. Great cast and some really funny episodes. It is not my number one sitcom because Seinfeld holds that forever for me. The reason is at times WKRP would have some kind of social message. Seinfeld never once tried to send out a message just made us laugh. Still watch WKRP whenever I find it running on a station. I wish this video was of a better production quality. Voice sounds like AI and some facts were not accurate and those clips did not makes sense as they were cut off too quickly. For that I would not subscribe to this channel. You have to put in the work!

Loni Anderson lives in Los Angeles not Minneapolis and Richard Sanders lives in Washington State, not Pennsylvania.

Great info, but some really awkward cuts.

Too bad they had AI do this, could have been so much better with a real life narrator

Jan Smithers, I always liked her. She seemed like the girl next door. Overall though I'd say it was a pretty good cast.

Can’t pick just one…..they were all good.

We used to always debate: Bailey or Jennifer Ginger or Mary Ann Ralph Kramden or Ed Norton.

l like all of them the same,,great sitcom

What's the point of showing the clips if you cut things off in mid sentence? This is very poorly produced and edited.

Did anybody ever explain why Les Nessman always had band aides in different locations? Every week, there was a new band aide.

​@@chuyocaca4153 The opening theme, a soft rock/pop number called "WKRP in Cincinnati Main Theme," was composed by Tom Wells, with lyrics by series creator Hugh Wilson, and was performed by Steve Carlisle.An urban legend circulated at the time that Richard Sanders (who had comparable vocal characteristics to those of Carlisle) had recorded the song. Wilson stated in the commentary for the first season's DVD set that this was not true. Sanders would later "sing" the lyrics in a promo spot on VH1 for The New WKRP in Cincinnati that parodied the U2 song "Numb."

Gordon Jump died 2003 @ 71, not in 2023

If you remember Billy Jack movie There is the first time I seen him

As God is my witness........the Big Guy and Les Nessman

Arthur Carlson’s don’t line up. If he was 46 in 1978 and died in 2023 at age 71…I’m thinking he was 91 when he died. Or he died in 2003.

Jan Smithers was always the great beauty of this show (Loni Anderson was just too brassy for my tastes). Jan Smithers was married to James Brolin for a while.
