I havent watched newsradio since it was in series. One of the best sitcoms of all time. Damn. I forgot Joe Rogan used to be young.....wait..that means....oh my god...I'm hideous!...dont look at me! ...
Still completely relevant and right within my demographic even now. Unfortunately, it would still be highly unlikely that there would be any kind of a pairing between any of us.
Foley was probably the most talented straight man of his time.
Interesting how often Dave is described as "the straight Man". Were there many talented gay guys back then?

Never realized until i watched a rerun of newsradio some 20 years after the fact that joe rogan was an actor & a damn good one at that
0:14 Hey, there's Dave with a girl drink. 🍹
I thought when the lady said "You guys going up?" Joe would say, "Yeah, I'm going right up." LOL
"With who? quick? too late, nice bluff, case closed."
Pwn'd by Joe.
He didn't know. It was Lisa.
Pro-tip: Joe is not the brain of the station.
MY NAME IS JOE
They do not make real funny, smart shows like this anymore. -Lor-
3:53 Yeah... hahahha

Why did they stop using the bar in the show. It was only used in what the first two seasons?
Probably because they mostly kept them at the station.
WKRP used do that too,
Nice ....
