1431 IN PERSON Cincinnati's Favorite TV Show: An Appreciation of WKRP in Cincinnati

Multi-week in-person | Registration opens 1/6/26 10:00 AM

By industry standards, WKRP in Cincinnati was at best, a moderate success. However, this brilliantly written and acted show still resonates with viewers today. During this class, we will trace the show's development, highlight many memorable episodes and moments, learn about the cast members and crew, and explore why it was cancelled after only four seasons on the air. And yes, we will show the entire "Turkeys Away" episode. "Baby, if you ever wondered" about WKRP and how television shows get on the air, you may enjoy this class.

Moderator: Greg Gajus was, in a previous life, a television executive who was very involved in network decisions on which shows to develop, air, and cancel. He has taught OLLI classes on Dwight Eisenhower, NASA, and the Cincinnati Reds. He is the co-author of two books, Baseball Revolutionaries and The Grandma Project.
