The infamous WKRP turkey drop. Happy Thanksgiving!

[unsub2O17]

You may recall the 1978 "turkey drop" episode of the classic sitcom "WKRP in Cincinnati" - perhaps the funniest Thanksgiving-themed episode in television history. The premise: the management of a struggling Cincinnati radio station concocts a Thanksgiving promotion of tossing free turkeys from a helicopter over a shopping mall ... but they didn't realize that turkeys don't fly; the URL:

That was one of my favorite shows too, and yes now that you remind us I remember that infamous turkey drop

"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly".

 

A brilliant episode and a great memory.

 

Thanks for sharing it with us.

A particularly hilarious episode of a hilarious show. A close friend (and fellow WKRP fan) uses "As God is my witness" as her tagline.

I remember watching that episode.. thought I'd die laughing! It was a great show, and, I was hot for Gary Sandy.

I remember watching this one too. Everyone remembers the "As God is my witness" punch line, but the line that set up the punch line and let long-time viewers know something remarkable was happening was when "Jennifer" offered to get "Mr. Carlson" a cup of coffee. People gasped when that happened.

 

Great show. Great scene.

 

(And yeah, I had the hots for Gary Sandy too.)

One of my favorite episodes was when the photographer took pics of Jennifer naked. Jennifer tried to reason with him and they assumed he must be gay so they sent Andy to reason with him instead. I always loved his tight jeans.

Gary Sandy did have a reputation for packing quite a large cock in those tight jeans. Very sexy man.
