I am currently enjoying the WKRP DVDs I have (I started last week).

When I put the first DVD in the player and began t watch it, I had this odd sense of appreciation for the ensemble cast of the show.

WKRP remains one of my favorite TV shows.

Ms Anderson was a significant part of that show. She was nominated for three Golden Globe Awards awards, and won two Emmy Awards for her role.

Thank-you for the laughs.

R.I.P. Loni Anderson.

Yeah, each member of that cast was great, imo.

I did not mean to say I preferred Ms Anderson over anyone else.

That ensemble cast were all great in their roles.

WKRP was great. My favorite episode was the softball game against WPIG.
