20. Actually on Monday, August 4th. You legally turn a year older in age on the day before your birthday. She was born on

August 5th, 1945, so August 5th 2025 would have been the first day of her 81st year alive.

[Polybius]

25. Ehh

Nobody follows that though. Who celebrates their birthday the day before? Never seen anyone do it.

[Celerity]

30. I was not talking about a birthday celebration. I was talking about actual age. nt

[Srkdqltr]

27. You only have one birthday, all the rest are anniversary of your birth. (said for no reason at all!)

[Prairie Gates]

3. ...

Not even a close call: best theme song ever.

[orleans]

5. i never heard this full version with all these lyrics! omg. thank you. i always loved this song/opening and after all

these years...

wow!

i'm hearing the whole song.

[Prairie Gates]

10. It's quite beautiful...I'll think of you once in awhile, Loni Anderson

8. Show runner Hugh Wilson wrote the lyrics simply because he was told he'd get a $500 royalty every time it aired.

21. Best sitcom ever!

I just loved that show. RIP Loni.

[FoxNewsSucks]

23. Never heard that whole version before either

Thanks for posting it.

I wish WKRP could be put on Netflix or somewhere to watch it again. It really was so good.

[Polybius]

26. Over Golden Girls?

Cheers theme was amazing too, as were many 80's shows.

[Srkdqltr]

4. How sad, she was so good on that show.

[debm55]

6. Rest in Peace , Loni. You were great in that role.

[LogDog75]

7. She'll be missed

She played against the typical stereotype of the blonde bimbo with her character Jennifer being beautiful, sexy, confident, and smart.

[Hieronymus Phact]

22. Jennifer made a fictional $24,000 in 1978

In 2025 dollars that's like 118,000/year for a secretary. Very Smart indeed.

[applegrove]

31. She made more than her boss. I remember that.

[SocialDemocrat61]

9. How sad 😪

Best Thanksgiving episode ever!
"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly".

14. Jeez, I almost commented on Laurie Anderson, instead of Lonie.

Kind of different, no? Liked them both. Oh, Superman. Glad I read a couple of comments first.
