The thing I remember most about the show is when the kids got trampled at the Who concert in Cincinnati. The show did a good job of tying the events of reality into the events of the fictional radio station. I still remember the look on Andy Travis' face when they broke into the middle of a song to relay the news. It was one of those odd moments when the actor wasn't acting, but he was really conveying emotion that was real. Oddly enough, if we had not moved from Cincinnati, my sister would have gone to that concert.
For a very brief time, VH1 brought WKRP back as a new series. I never did catch any of the episodes, but I think Loni Aderson and Howard Hessman from the original cast were on the new show.
