The Season One WKRP DVD set is coming out soon. I'm looking forward to it.
It has received some nasty reviews, due to the amount of butchering that was needed to eliminate costly music royalties. Way back then, the producers had no way of anticipating that WKRP would be re-run into perpetuity, or that there would eventually be a VHS/DVD market for it. More's the pity.
I still plan on getting it, though. As far as I'm concerned, what really made the show was its humor, its character interactions, and of course, the luminously lovely Bailey Quarters. (Sigh.)
