Does that award come with flying live turkeys?

No, but you get a new black powder shotgun!

[Keystonekid]

Maybe the greatest episode in the history of Television. " I swear I thought Turkey's could fly"

My wife used to be a sort of close acquaintance of Les Nesman and Venus Flytrap.

Just thought I would throw in this Wolfgangish remark

RIP, Gordon Jump. A K State grad, if I'm not mistaken.

It's a shame that the show is not available on DVD; maybe it never will be, what with all the snippets of actual songs that were played on the show, thus the outlandish fees that would likely have to be paid to a bunch of recording artists. And the music was integral to a lot of the humor of the show, so to try to edit out the music for a DVD release would be virtually impossible.

i can't believe ashley engle made first team, i think kanoe shouldve been there..

[Gelatinous Mass]

Hey ims2pidladat, I'd think you'd be more upset that McGinnis made it over Kanoe...3 setters on first team and yours was left off.....I think all the other players were elite 8 participants....somebody at Texas has to be decent enough for first team.

WKRP Turkey incident:

[JB Southpaw]

thing I noticed, is how few seniors made it between both 1 & 2 teams.
7 out of 20+ players

hell, if they can put the muppet show onto a DVD collection why not WKRP? we should all just write to Time Life and have them do it. any takers?

and while we're at it, any other classic '70s or '80s shows that need to be released (and please, no silver spoon suggestions, though that train is pretty freaking cool)

I had a thing for Jan Smithers (who played Bailey Quarters, the bespectacled shy beauty). I couldn't understand America's fascination with Loni Anderson.

[leadbrain]

My favorite was always Get Smart. Loved Agent 99. Maybe it was all the fancy gadgets . . .

Not a surprise as the 2003 class is considered weak compared to the other years
