“As God Is My Witness, I Thought Turkeys Could Fly”
November 22nd, 2006WKRP In Cincinnati was one of the best sitcoms ever. Unfortunately, because it used such a variety of music that was so integral to the show’s personality (Pink Floyd, Van Morrison, etc.), the original episodes in their original form will probably never be released on DVD due to ridiculously complex licensing issues.
Music licensing aside, it was a truly classic ’70s sitcom, up there with Barney Miller and the original Bob Newhart show. One of the best WKRP episodes of them all was “Turkeys Away” from the first season, written by Bill Dial and originally broadcast on October 30, 1978.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, so what better time to watch the entire episode? Click now before the copyright police yank it off YouTube. Here are links to part one, part two, and part three.
