How did WKRP jump the shark during it's run? I'm going to be killed for this but...from Day One. The was so gross and annoying from Day One...even the extremly cute Jan Smithers couldn't save this one.

Wkrp in cincinnati is one of the very few shows that did'nt jump the shark,it did'nt even come close.
WKRP IN CINCINNATI IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SHOWS IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISION!

YOU'VE GOT TO BE CRAZY!
WKRP IN CINCINATI NEVER!!! JUMPED THE SHARK.
IT NEVER CAME CLOSE!
WKRP IN CINCINNATI WAS CONSISTEDLY ENTERTAINING THROUGH OUT ITS FOUR YEAR RUN.

For me, it never jumped the shark. When it went off the air I really missed it. Of course, it was on every day in syndication, so ....

Wish I would have recorded it, but it wasn't common for everyone to have their own vcr in their room like now, and tapes were too expensive for someone my age. Besides, you never imagine that it just won't be around anymore, or that scenes will be chopped out and dialogue and music changed. *SNIFFLE*

I can't believe that it is still my favorite show in history. I think I would even rate it before ...*gasp* Titus !! ^_^

If you knew you were going to be "killed" for making this comment, why did you make it? This is the WKRP fan message board -- not the WKRP bashing board. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/tongue.gif

If your moniker is an indication to what show you prefer, then it's quite clear to me and other WKRP fans that all your taste is apparently in your mouth! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/crazy.gif

I don't care if you are the "moderator", your remark was stupid and unnecessary. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/mad.gif
