New WKRP in Cincinnati Episode 2 (Part 1) Where Are We Going with Johnny Fever

[catothewiser]

Wow - never knew of this. But I was very dubious even before clicking. These things never work - they just come off as sad to me. Thanks for uploading, though. I kinda like the tracking problem like the hiss on a phonograph. :-)

[RichYan33]

Is that Bubba from "Forrest Gump"?

[mooky9669]

@RichYan33 yep! That's Forest's best good friend!!

[Guruboy27]

TV was messed up like that, back in the day; until DTV and Cable

[80z90zhouzemuzicgrl]

u can tell its a vcr tape lol check the tracking .....remember ;)

[leananshae]

unwatchable

[orchidtender]

@leananshae it wasn't really any more watchable without the tracking issues. No chemistry with most of the core cast missing.

[monkeybumsmom]

why would you bother to upload this???

[ShadoEd100]

@monkeybumsmom Why would you bother to watch it? Seriously. If you don't like it, don't watch it. It's really simple. It's called personal responsibility. You be responsible for your actions and let others be responsible for theirs.

[BMSMUSIC]

The jittery picture was caused by bad "tracking". If you would try if on a VCR that has a "tracking" adjustment or possibly with a remote control that has a "tracking" adjustment ( NOTE:* : Some Universal remote controls use "Channel Up + / Channel Down - ) or even on a few different machines I'm sure you could get better playback results. Cheers ! If you try it, please get back to me ? I subbed ya.

Notice how the onscreen title was the same as the original: "WKRP in Cincinnati". It was a few weeks into the run of the revival that they decided to tack "The New" onto the title (probably stations running the original complained about confusing viewers).

[weaselshark]

They destroyed the original song.

[Jocoll76]

Bubba Gump

[Reverendjim1]

No Bailey Quarters no WKRP... 

[Paul68595]

The good ol days of the 1980's TV and VCR's. Lol.

[stevejw1947]

You can watch episodes from this show on itunes for a small fee.

[kab1972]

I also taped the episodes from both seasons from New WKRP, but unfortunately lost the tapes after a move. Same with the original WKRP. My favorite 80's show. American Lifestyle channel ran the original a few years ago and I got those on tape again. I liked the new WKRP ok, but it never quite measured up to the original.

[Aviyaytor]

If you post something please ensure you know, you can actually WATCH it withou having a seizure. Pathetic!

[msk7046]

@Aviyaytor --YOU'RE pathetic. Did you read what the up-loader wrote??

[Crotchrot]

I remember this show! I have.... or had some on tape that seem to be long gone. It was alright. It never captured the magic of the original, but I still liked it. In south Florida, I think it aired weekend afternoons.

[wethreestooges]

The new theme style was gay. Should have used the old one.

[jaymoe67]

This was a writers' show. Good charector actors, good plot lines, good slice of life kind of stuff. Did not rely on pretty Boys or pretty Girls to be interesting...except the Jennifer charactor...Others that come to mind, MASH, Barney Miller, NewsRadio, John Laraquete Show. Anything other than FRIENDS

[Brad3514]

new wkrp in cincinnati??? when was there i never seen this on television O.o

[puck30]

@Brad3514 pretty much played at 2 in the morning.

[floodedcar123]

To shaky, this will never work

[fitzpatrickgf]

I love this show, but I think this footage is giving me an Aneurysm.

[RHMETAL]

Would've loved to see the big guy fire everybody and replace them with the original crew! Get Johnny and Jennifer and Venus and Bailey and Andy back! THAT would've been epic!

[stucat06]

...AAAhhh Bubba!

[juliabohemian]

Even in 1991 Herb's jacket had elbow pads.

[jwgreek8606]

and Jennifer Marlowe

[jwgreek8606]

what station was this on?

[jaymoe67]

@jwgreek8606

[Robin61478]

I caught these episodes on CBS (horrible time slots) & also on VH1 in late 1993. Amazing all the advertising VH1 put into it, but the U2 spoof was pretty cool. IMO the sweetest scene here is between Herb & Jennifer. I'm so grateful Frank & Loni participated in the Original's DVD commentary, even if the FOX version is garbage. I also never fail to say "ahhh..", when she kisses Herb at the end of the Christmas episode. Sweet. :)

[dgwaters]

I've seen scattered episodes of The New WKRP and it really is one of TV's better revivals. True, it's not up the the original but it is FAR better than some of other revivals.

[ANCESTERSMEMORIES]

this video quality ,sure is bringing on my tourettes

[dithbmine1]

just does NOT have it, especially the secretary, and Venuses replacement... no thanks..

[laneatlileden]

this show could only be seen in cincy at 12;30 am.

[bigdaddyrico85]

@laneatlileden Actually, it aired at 11:30 on WKRC Ch 12

[cooney76]

How can I adjust the tracking on this channel........

[alman54]

@cooney76 Turn the knob at the lower right of your monitor clockwise.

[shaithis80]

@alman54 I almost spewed my drink all over my keyboard on that comment alone.  LMFAO!

[vassephardi]

@cooney76 Hahahahaha ! ! !

I was thinking similar.

[TOXICFLOWZSHOW]

@cooney76 LMFAO OMG that brought back memory of what u said lmao when i seen what u said i said to myself what? then i looked that the vid and i notice a perticular kind of static thingy at the bottom of the screen and i started busted out lauging my ass off lmao too funny

[2point6x4]

@cooney76 Pause the video.

[dargay]
