WKRP in CIncinnati 1.01

Pilot - Part 1

Andy Travis moves from Albuquerque to Cincinnati to become the program director for a sleepy AM radio station. After getting the permission of the station's manager, Arthur Carlson, he quickly changes the kind of music the station plays to rock and roll.

Not quite as good as I remembered it but it had its moments, most of which involved Dr. Johnny Fever. It was a bit disappointing to watch the show without the original music. There is a box set out there with most of the original music restored but I was watching it on Hulu which must have a different cut of the show.

I didn't recall that a different actress played the role of Arthur's mother in the pilot. I was also surprised to learn, after checking on IMDB, that Arthur's mother only appeared in three episodes.
