I really wish they would spend the money and pay the rights for the original music and released on Blu Ray. This is one of the best TV series of all time.
"Phone Cops" is my favorite ever WKRP schtick, Johnny's paranoid raving is such a piece of world building, and a great high-stakes story, like the fire and tornado episodes.
This was recorded late 1990 early 1991, in syndication on the Canadian CBC network. This recording did keep the original songs, such as Kool & and The Gang "Celebration".
Did you notice that, when Andy Travis was on the phone with "Black Monday", he asked Herb Tarlek, to run over and tell Jennifer Marlowe, that the bomb is hidden in the toolbox. After that, Herb is no longer part of that episode.
I like that the transmitter blew up in the middle of a song called “She’s A Bad Mama Jama.” Maybe the worst song we ever heard played on WKRP, not counting the elevator music.

I worked in radio for 20 years and I can relate to a lot of things that occurred at WKRP.
Transmitter Building was crazily realistic :O
(Was in one that looked almost exactly like that about a year ago...)
DonnieDenny, I didn't work in radio nearly that long though I loved every minute of it.

Such a great show.
Thx u! I haven't seen this episode since early 80's. This was one of the funniest episodes ever.
Johnny: IT WAS THE PHONE COPS!!!!!😆😆😆
Ah yes, the dreaded "Phone Cops".
Phone Cops ....They play hard ball
Love the episode... but it's unwatchable quality.
Totally forgot about the phone cops. Haha
I love it when Johnny is afraid of the phone. Cops! Think the netball bomber was part of their program quote. They play hardball

He isn't - that's strange, I know I saw him a couple minutes later...
Poor quality viewing
Johnny was probably smoking the marijuana that was in his desk draw. That's why he was so paranoid about the phone cops

Nice video download ..must be a pro! LOL
What would have made this episode even funnier would have been if they had played The Kinks' "Destroyer" at 14:20. I think that would have been epic!
Defective post.
