Turkey's Away is One of the Best Sitcom Episodes of All TimeI am an animal lover, but with all due respect to turkeys everywhere, this episode is one of the funniest comedy pieces in TV history, especially if you know the show's characters well. In fact, it's one of the few episodes of this almost-great TV series in which every character has a line written perfectly for them -- most of them funny. And the overall concept for this episode ranks up there with the "Chuckles Bites the Dust" episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. This is definitely one you should buy..Score: 5/5

WKRPI'm glad the reviewers mentioned that the episodes are incomplete. I wouldn't dream of buying them now. Thanks for all you reviewers who mentioned it, and what are those who didn't mention it thinking?.Score: 1/5
The humor in the characters on this show KILLS me!The people that made the characters on this show really made this a funny show at the time, but it is even more funny, even hilarious today! Thank you I-Tunes for purchasing another classic. From the humor of Johnny Fever and Venus Flytrap, to the stiff, nerdy old-fashioned humor of Herb Tarleck and Les Nessman, this show is great! Not to mention the lovely Jennifer and her very unboss-like boss, Mr. Carlson. These episodes are classics and to be tresured!.Score: 4/5
Too Bad About The MusicI just was listening to an interview with Tim Reid and Tom Dreesen and WKRP was mentioned. Tim mentioned what a shame it was that the show had to be re-edited with fake music because of royalties and licensing fees. That's too bad. I would have purchased the whole season if it was the actual show rather than an interpretation of it. I can relate with many of the posts here. It was a fantastic show and AOR radio was real back then. As a teenager in the '70s in Richmond Va., there was a show on late Saturday nights called "Mellow Madness". The DJ's name was "Ty" and he was very much like Venus Fly Trap. Well, at least talking about the show brings back fond memories. Too bad I won't see it. Anyone know where there are original versions of WKRP to be found?.Score: 1/5

Do not purchase these are cut!I am sick! After purchasing about 7 WKRP episodes from itunes I started reading these reviews. To leave the original music out and not LET PEOPLE KNOW is robbery and misrepresentation of this product. SHAME on iTunes and anyone else distributing these cut up versions of one of the BEST sitcoms in history!.Score: 1/5
Greatest show ever, but...OK, having these on my iPod is great, and I also bought the DVD's last spring. Admittedly, this is my favorite show of all time. It appears that many others feel the same way based on the reviews here. But I take serious issue with the versions featured digitally, and think all of you who write "hey, it's not about the music" are missing a few key points. Many of the songs used originally were integral to scenes. ("Hot Blooded" in "A Date With Jennifer" comes to mind, and "Dogs" by Pink Floyd in "Turkeys Away" does too.) In some cases, entire scenes have been cut from this release where music can't be replaced! Even worse, some dialogue has been re-dubbed by different actors. This is a travesty of the highest order, and shows how little regard anyone at FOX has for the original show. Imagine "Goodfellas" with stock, schlocky music. It'd change the movie, wouldn't it? What if they re-dubbed "A Hard Days's Night" with non-Beatles music? What happens to future seasons? I recall music playing throughout the "Bomb Threat" 2-parter when Johnny & Venus are at the transmitter. Do they pay for that music, or cut the scenes? Or the episode where Carlson reads most of John Lennon's lyrics to "Imagine" for a censor-crazy Pastor? Can they use those? Look, I want to make this clear: I give the show 5 stars, more if I could. But what we're seeing here, with FOX cutting music, scenes, and re-dubbing lines, sets a dangerous example of how a company can somehow erase a show's history. For WKRP to live on and be recognized by future generations as brilliant, it needs to be the the original WKRP. Not these brutally sliced and diced versions. This is an insult to Hugh Wilson (who, allegedly approved these!), and the cast & creators of this great show. A travesty..Score: 1/5

Lose this mess and offer the Shout! Factory versionThis is the first release version, which includes a plethora of music edits. It is not worth your time or money. Hold out until iTunes finally has the Shout! Factory version available, which was able to secure rights to about 90% of the music from the original run..Score: 1/5

Classic show, but missing the classic rockThis release of one of the funniest sitcoms of all time is let down by the fact that they couldn't get the rights to the classic rock tunes used in each episode when the show first aired. Those classic tunes were integral to the shows comedy and timing and unfortunately the generic music that has replaced them just doesn't cut it..Score: 3/5
A travesty to a great sitcomThis show was about raw rock & roll. Music was central to making this a brilliant sitcom. The music industry wanted to renegotiate their contract for digital rights and thus greed destroys a classic. The great cast still shines but what's the point when generic alt rock is playing in the background? I only bought the pilot (thank god) but I do wonder what they will do for the John Lennon Imagine episode. This is worse than Lucas inserting crappy digital dinosaurs into star wars claiming he wanted them there originally! Please please redo with original music. Screw the greed and come to an agreement to restore the original wonderful, if dated, classic I love..Score: 1/5
WKRP in Cincinnati: "Commercial Break"I was very disappointed with the quality of the video; not remastered at all as one would've expected. Addtionally, there are portions of the original episode which have been edited. I remember wll the original series well, and was quite annoyed to see that the episode I purchased was not provided in its entirety..Score: 1/5
