WKRP was one of maybe three or four sit-coms I ever watched regularly and may have been the last.
Very funny, but often serious.
The original Police Academy was extremely funny, but he was in # 2 which was not.
RIP

WKRP episodes don't have the original music in them anymore, so unless you've got a set of old VHS tapes or something, the show is just a memory now

eta: I stand corrected, apparently you can get a DVD set with "over 90%" of the original music

Fuck. William Hurt. I never thought he was a great actor but it still sucks that he died so young.

 The death of 500,000 dead Iraqi children was "a very hard choice, but the price-we think the price is worth it" ~Madeleine Albright.
Like a lot of people, this is the first thing I thought of.

At what point do you say, "You know, that's probably too many children."?

Ya mean to have died in a war zone, or, be born?

Either way, one is too many.

It's taken me a while to be able to come here   I have the sad.

My kids and I were talking about untimely deaths of musicians and other celebrities in their 50s and the first thought that crosses your mind when you hear the cause is not released...
Cocaine. Was the unanimous opinion.
Unless the cause was an previously unknown heart condition in which case the cause is probably the aged heart's inability to handle cocaine like it could when it was 20.

Also Columbia.
