The New WKRP in Cincinnati background

The New WKRP in Cincinnati

The ongoing struggles of the struggling radio station.

A spinoff of the original WKRP in Cincinnati, Arthur "Big Guy" Carlson still runs a struggling station when his latest program director is fired for violating FCC regulations. He hires Donovan Aderhold with so many fresh ideas that it boggles the mind of the boss. The new WKRP included Morning DJs Jack Allen and Dana Burns, and sultry night DJ Mona Loveland. Past alumni returned to visit from time to time, showing their lives had turned out better since they left. Advertising director Herb Tarlek (bad suits and all) and Les Nessman were also returning regulars to the show.
