Thanksgiving Day Turkey Drop, WKRP

 This remains, in my mind, the finest comedy sketch ever.

    Can remember when that episode first aired TB, search reveals October 30, 1978....that's a lot of dressing ago. Let's hear it for Les and Mr. Carlson.......:)

    1. I remember watching it the first time it was aired as well, Nylon12. Surprised my parents let me watch it - apparently it was pretty safe comedy.

  3. I see that clip just about every year through the Book of Face. It aired during the years I never had a television so I have never seen the show other than that single clip. The clip seems to be a classic one though.

    1. Ed, it really is.

      I should go back and rewatch the series (I am sure it is on the InterWeb somewhere). I have pretty good memories of the show; I am curious how they would hold up.
