If you like WKRP, I urge you to write a letter to the video department of the Fox corporation, which currently owns the rights to this and all other shows from MTM productions, asking them to release episodes of WKRP on video or DVD. Who knows; if enough people write, they might listen!

Here's the address to write to:

20th Century Fox Home Video
P.O. Box 900
Beverly Hills, CA 90213-0900

Fox Home Video has no email address, but that's just as well, because regular mail is usually taken more seriously by companies than e-mail (because of the
greater effort involved in sending regular mail). Please write, and encourage others to write, to the above address saying that you want more "WKRP" on
video and that if more episodes were available, you'd buy them. Only in this way can we hope to see classic episodes like "Turkeys Away" on video at last.

Final note: It's no use writing to Columbia House; I just learned from someone there that they are currently unable to license shows owned by Fox. So write to Fox!

I really don't mean to rain on your parade, but I figured I should let you know that writing to Fox Broadcasting Corp. is like pulling teeth. Just ask us "Small Wonder" fans, they wouldn't listen to our similar letter writing effort. But hey, good luck all the same!

That depends entirely on how many people write. The more people write, the more likely they'll be to listen. Please write to the address I gave (and it's not Fox Broadcasting corp; it's Fox Home Video).

No no no no no: WKRP is owned by Fox the *corporation*, not Fox the *network*. (Fox the network is owned by Fox the corporation, but they don't show only shows owned by Fox, nor do they show *all* shows owned by Fox.) Write to Fox *Home Video*, just as I wrote above.

And WKRP isn't on Prime, it's on the Comedy Network.
