Turkey Drop from "WKRP in Cincinnati"

Thursday, November 22, 2007 8:16 PM

Long before there was "Firefly", there was another short-lived TV show called "WKRP in Cincinnati". It was a hi-larious show about the radio biz in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Like the BDS, it was canceled before its time (it had a low-rated four season run), but not before giving one of the funniest Thanksgiving Day moments ever. In this scene, deejay Les Nessman reports on a Thanksgiving Day/station promotion that doesn't quiet work as well as planned.

(If you're wondering what happened in the video, the station manager thought turkeys could fly!)

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
