Loni wasn’t on it, but out of curiosity, does anyone remember “The New WKRP In Cincinnati”?

Vaguely. I think I stumbled upon a couple of episodes when it came out, but it didn't make much of an impression on me. I loved the original show, but hate the fact that songs used in the series no longer appear in reruns.

Early 90s. Syndicated programs were doing pretty well and there was a thought that maybe CBS had pulled the plug on WKRP too early as it was wildly popular in reruns but there were only three seasons worth of episodes. Herb and Les were the only returning characters. It had zero of the original's charm. Like the Munsters syndicated show from that same time.CrankerBait wrote: ↑Sat Aug 09, 2025 9:28 amVaguely.
