Need New Space

Does anyone know a site where I can store my photos? Blogger tells me I am close to the limit so I switched to photobucket. Now they are telling me the same. Both sites suggest that I pay for an upgrade but I can't afford that. Does anyone know of a site that gives unlimited space? If not I may have to stop blogging or cut back on all of my blogs.

FM movie trailer


For years I have heard that WKRP was the television version of the movie FM. I have never seen the film but after seeing this trailer it is easy to see how one would get that impression. If it is true I guess Martin Mull had the Dr. Johnny Fever part and Cleavon Little was Venus. Maybe I'll catch it on TV sometime.

Channel One with Jan Smithers



Here is the last of the local TV guides from Cincinnati with a cast member of WKRP on the cover. This one is from 1981 with Jan Smithers. Finally the story on the inside cover has to deal with the person on the cover. It briefly tells of Jan's life and career up to that point.

TV Plus Cover July 1980



Here is the second cover from local Cincinnati TV guide covers when the first WKRP series aired. This one features Ohio native Gary Sandy who was Andy Travis on the show. This cover is from the Cincinnati Post newspaper magazine called TV Plus. It is dated July 1980. Along with the cover I have included the back cover where the story is the sorry state of summer television at that time. Cable TV was still in its infancy so there were only 3 networks. That would soon change. Most of the time the networks didn't put new programs on in the summer. If you click on the article and read it you can feel the disgust that the writer has for how the networks handle summer TV. Yes I know most people are outside being active in the summer but when you come in you need something to watch.

Cincinnati Enquirer TV Magazine Cover



Thanks to Booksteve I now have a few local TV Guide covers from Cincinnati newspapers back in the 70's and early 80's. This one didn't have the year on it but it looks to be from 1978 or 1979 from the Cincinnati Enquirer. I have included the Children show highlights for you to see and seeing that one of them is the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries I believe my dating on this cover is correct.

Bailey and Jennifer

In the 70's seeing these two at your doorstep was every boys dream. This looks like it was taken when they shot the episode where they played softball.

Happy Easter Christ the Lord is Risen!


Save Chuck


One of the freshest and best shows on NBC, maybe Television, is in danger of being canceled. Thanks to Jay Leno doing a nightly show at 10pm NBC has said they will have to cancel some other shows. I had no problem with that as I thought they would be very low rated shows that I didn't watch. Now I find out that one of my favorites, Chuck, is on that list. Thanks to Give Me My Chuck we have been given ways to save the show. One way is to write to
NBC Chuck

3000 W Alameda Ave
Burbank, CA 91523

Angela Bromstad

Go to Give Me My Chuck to find out about other ways. I am posting this on alot of my sites so I can help get the word out.

WKRP in Cincinnati Theme Song Rated At The Top


Over at Film.com the Theme song for WKRP in Cincinnati is rated as one of the best in TV history. However, the video they use is from the syndicated version of the new WKRP in Cincinnati with a re-mix of the theme. That version was inferior to the original version. Still it is an honor for the show to be ranked as one of the best.

WKRP Season One Episode 12

This is the tornado episode. This one had some meaning to me as I live near Cincinnati and when I was a kid some catagory 5 tornadoes hit Cincinnati. It was scary.
