It will be moving
To anaheim by 1985.
4

And that's sports, up to
The minute, with les nessman.

00:00:13,814 --> 00:00:16,693
Next news at 10:00. Until
Then, you're tuned to...
6
00:00:16,717 --> 00:00:18,695
The doctor, and I've
Got a massive dose
7
00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:22,299
Of rock and roll coming
Up for you, babies, but first,
8
00:00:22,323 --> 00:00:24,301
I want to tell you
There are lots...
9
00:00:24,325 --> 00:00:27,037
And I do mean lots...
Of free tickets
10
00:00:27,061 --> 00:00:29,072
Still available for the big...
11
00:00:29,096 --> 00:00:32,309
Jerry vale-gary
"U.S." bonds concert.
12
00:00:32,333 --> 00:00:34,311
That's coming up this weekend
13
00:00:34,335 --> 00:00:36,713
At the winimimung memorial mall.
14
00:00:36,737 --> 00:00:38,781
So you don't want to
Miss that one, babies.
15
00:00:38,805 --> 00:00:41,784
- you'd better get ready.
- jerry lee lewis:
one, two, three, four.
16
00:00:41,808 --> 00:00:44,221
Go! It's 9:05. Krp
Is rocking you
17
00:00:44,245 --> 00:00:47,090
In cincinnati with the
Killer, jerry lee lewis!
18
00:00:47,114 --> 00:00:49,692
Lester, can I talk
To you a second?
19
00:00:49,716 --> 00:00:51,394
Sure, andy. What
Can I do for you?
20
00:00:51,418 --> 00:00:54,497
Uh, johnny, you mind if I
Talk to les alone a minute?
21
00:00:54,521 --> 00:00:57,633
Not at all. Someone should.
22
00:00:57,657 --> 00:00:59,669
Les, can I be honest with you?
23
00:00:59,693 --> 00:01:02,371
If you feel you have to, travis.
24
00:01:02,395 --> 00:01:04,374
Does this have something
To do with my raise?
25
00:01:04,398 --> 00:01:06,376
No, no, no, les. Not quite.
26
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,911
- hey, see, you're a busy guy.
- yes, I am.
27
00:01:08,935 --> 00:01:11,180
You got the news, you got the
Sports, you got the weather,
28
00:01:11,204 --> 00:01:14,016
You've got the traffic, you've got
Your award-winning farm reports,
29
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,452
You've been very good about
Letting bailey help you with the news.
30
00:01:16,476 --> 00:01:19,189
And don't forget mr. Carlson's
Idea for a new sports interview show.
31
00:01:19,213 --> 00:01:20,924
Les, I kind of wish you would.
32
00:01:20,948 --> 00:01:23,026
What do you mean?
33
00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:25,562
The thing is, les,
Mr. Carlson's gone
34
00:01:25,586 --> 00:01:27,564
And hired somebody
Else for that job.
35
00:01:27,588 --> 00:01:30,700
Look, I just found out about it
Myself just a few minutes ago.
36
00:01:30,724 --> 00:01:34,671
- who?
- does the name "Sparky"
Mean anything to you?
37
00:01:34,695 --> 00:01:37,007
Does it? Black-and-white collie
38
00:01:37,031 --> 00:01:39,330
Who ran away from
Home and broke my heart.
39
00:01:45,672 --> 00:01:48,017
Sparky, uh, anderson?
40
00:01:48,041 --> 00:01:50,086
I'm sorry, les.
41
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:52,088
How can he do that, travis?
42
00:01:52,112 --> 00:01:54,124
He's the manager of
The cincinnati red legs.
43
00:01:54,148 --> 00:01:55,958
He was fired last
Season, lester.
44
00:01:55,982 --> 00:01:59,462
He was? Oh, yeah.
I remember that.
45
00:01:59,486 --> 00:02:02,832
Yeah, he's the manager
Of the detroit tigers now.
46
00:02:02,856 --> 00:02:04,934
He is?
47
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:07,236
Oh, yeah. I remember that too.
48
00:02:07,260 --> 00:02:10,273
- yeah?
- why, sure. Shouldn't he be in detroit?
49
00:02:10,297 --> 00:02:13,643
- baseball season's over, les.
- well, I knew that, travis.
50
00:02:13,667 --> 00:02:15,745
This has nothing to do with you.
51
00:02:15,769 --> 00:02:18,414
This is a very big deal for carlson.
He wants to syndicate the show.
52
00:02:18,438 --> 00:02:21,384
He's talking coast to coast
Here. He wants a celebrity.
53
00:02:21,408 --> 00:02:23,753
That's not to say that
You're not a celebrity, les.
54
00:02:23,777 --> 00:02:26,789
He wants a national hero.
Now, you understand, don't you?
55
00:02:26,813 --> 00:02:28,513
No, I don't.
56
00:02:29,749 --> 00:02:31,683
Well, you know...
57
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,898
You know, les.
58
00:02:35,922 --> 00:02:38,701
I kind of hoped you'd
Understand about this, lester.
59
00:02:38,725 --> 00:02:40,403
Y-you know?
60
00:02:40,427 --> 00:02:44,707
I think I understand
Perfectly, travis.
61
00:02:44,731 --> 00:02:49,779
I'm sure that sparky
Will be a great asset
62
00:02:49,803 --> 00:02:51,436
To the station.
63
00:02:57,844 --> 00:02:59,655
Do you think he means that?
64
00:02:59,679 --> 00:03:02,025
No.
65
00:03:02,049 --> 00:03:04,327
I hate looking like a bad guy.
66
00:03:04,351 --> 00:03:07,496
Hey, you never look bad.
67
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,066
I know. Later.

78
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,906
Excuse me?
79
00:04:03,309 --> 00:04:05,154
Hello?
80
00:04:05,178 --> 00:04:07,646
Hello!
81
00:04:11,218 --> 00:04:14,264
He can't hear you.
His door is shut.
82
00:04:14,288 --> 00:04:16,999
That's les nessman,
And I'm jennifer marlowe.
83
00:04:17,023 --> 00:04:19,335
- sparky anderson.
- I know.
84
00:04:19,359 --> 00:04:21,337
I just adore you.
85
00:04:21,361 --> 00:04:24,040
I went to every reds
Home game until you left.
86
00:04:24,064 --> 00:04:26,898
Box 110, row 6-c.
87
00:04:29,503 --> 00:04:31,480
That's my seat. How amazing.
88
00:04:31,504 --> 00:04:35,251
I almost broke my
Neck trying to see you.
89
00:04:35,275 --> 00:04:37,453
Hey, sparky, you got here.
90
00:04:37,477 --> 00:04:39,789
Hey. It's good to see you.
91
00:04:39,813 --> 00:04:41,957
Hello, arthur. Great
To be back in cincinnati.
92
00:04:41,981 --> 00:04:44,427
Listen, on behalf of wkrp,
93
00:04:44,451 --> 00:04:46,896
Let me welcome you back to cincinnati
And tell you what an honor it is
94
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,898
To have you in this... Oh, boy.
95
00:04:48,922 --> 00:04:51,500
- ooh, is this your
Championship ring?
- it's one of 'em.
96
00:04:51,524 --> 00:04:54,270
Did you see this...
97
00:04:54,294 --> 00:04:56,639
Oh, let me introduce
You to uh... Uh...
98
00:04:56,663 --> 00:04:59,409
- andy travis.
- yeah. Our program director.
99
00:04:59,433 --> 00:05:01,210
- pleasure to meet you, sparky.
- hi, andy.
100
00:05:01,234 --> 00:05:05,014
- hi, sparky. I'm bailey.
- hi, sparky. I'm johnny.
101
00:05:05,038 --> 00:05:07,705
Buzzy, binky and cubby
Will be along in a moment.
102
00:05:09,642 --> 00:05:12,789
Have you met les, our news, sports,
Traffic, weather, and hog report man?
103
00:05:12,813 --> 00:05:16,059
Well, when I yelled at him, he
Didn't hear me. His door was shut.
104
00:05:16,083 --> 00:05:18,561
Oh. Where's herb?
105
00:05:18,585 --> 00:05:21,364
- he called.
- what did he want?
106
00:05:21,388 --> 00:05:23,822
Oh, it's just too embarrassing.
I'd rather not say.
107
00:05:26,093 --> 00:05:28,071
That's herb tarlek,
Our sales manager.
108
00:05:28,095 --> 00:05:30,005
He's bringing over the
Sponsor to your show.
109
00:05:30,029 --> 00:05:32,475
Herb's a jackass.
110
00:05:32,499 --> 00:05:34,778
Sparky, we're about
Set up for your show.
111
00:05:34,802 --> 00:05:36,946
If you'll follow me, we
Have some details to discuss.
112
00:05:36,970 --> 00:05:39,883
- fine. Your office or mine?
- well, until we get you
Your office,
113
00:05:39,907 --> 00:05:42,385
I was gonna say that
My office is your office.
114
00:05:42,409 --> 00:05:44,554
- I appreciate that, andy.
- yeah, so do I, travis,
115
00:05:44,578 --> 00:05:46,222
But I want sparky
To have my office.
116
00:05:46,246 --> 00:05:47,824
Hell, art, you don't
Have to do that.
117
00:05:47,848 --> 00:05:51,494
Listen, sparky, this is my team.
I call the shots here, okay?
118
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:53,220
Sparky, mr. Carlson's
Been telling me you've
119
00:05:53,244 --> 00:05:54,930
Always wanted to do
A radio show like this.
120
00:05:54,954 --> 00:05:57,834
Not really.
121
00:05:57,858 --> 00:06:00,469
Yeah, but you've had a lot of
Experience in broadcasting.
122
00:06:00,493 --> 00:06:03,853
Not really, but art says you don't have
To know anything about this business.
123
00:06:05,165 --> 00:06:06,709
No, no, not really.
124
00:06:06,733 --> 00:06:08,745
Let's go into my office
And get some work done.
125
00:06:08,769 --> 00:06:10,413
Hey, where is it?
126
00:06:10,437 --> 00:06:12,415
Jennifer, this is the
Biggest decision of my life.
127
00:06:12,439 --> 00:06:15,685
I mean, this thing could go
National. No more small-time here.
128
00:06:15,709 --> 00:06:18,087
I think sparky is cute.
129
00:06:18,111 --> 00:06:20,089
You're darn right he's cute.
130
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:23,359
He got a raw deal in this town. Do
You know what he's done for cincinnati?
131
00:06:23,383 --> 00:06:26,963
He's given them two world series,
Four pennants and six divisions.
132
00:06:26,987 --> 00:06:29,532
- five divisions.
- well, okay, five divisions.
133
00:06:29,556 --> 00:06:32,068
But that man is still the
Best manager in baseball.
134
00:06:32,092 --> 00:06:34,926
And you are the
Best manager in radio.
135
00:06:37,831 --> 00:06:39,508
Sparky got the ax.
136
00:06:39,532 --> 00:06:42,411
Oh, those fools!
137
00:06:42,435 --> 00:06:44,447
But I personally, as a
Member of this community,
138
00:06:44,471 --> 00:06:46,616
Am gonna do everything
I can to make it up to him.
139
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,819
- what about mama?
- don't you worry about mama.
140
00:06:49,843 --> 00:06:53,355
Once and for all, she's gonna find
Out that I'm running things down here.
141
00:06:53,379 --> 00:06:55,424
Okeydokey, if you think so.
142
00:06:55,448 --> 00:06:58,494
I may be stupid,
But I am no amateur.
143
00:06:58,518 --> 00:07:01,263
Cal! It's great to see
You. Welcome back.
144
00:07:01,287 --> 00:07:03,666
Thank you, arthur.
Now, I have to tell you,
145
00:07:03,690 --> 00:07:05,735
Helen and I just got
Back from las vegas,
146
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:07,704
And we saw all the shows.
147
00:07:07,728 --> 00:07:10,639
- that norm crosby
Sure is funny, isn't he?
- norman...
148
00:07:10,663 --> 00:07:12,374
- hey, and buddy hackett?
- bud.
149
00:07:12,398 --> 00:07:15,578
- he came out and talked
Just filthy for a whole hour.
- pure dirt.
150
00:07:15,602 --> 00:07:18,414
- one bathroom joke
After another.
- toilet time.
151
00:07:18,438 --> 00:07:20,349
It was beautiful.
152
00:07:20,373 --> 00:07:23,385
Arthur, we at sun luck's
Are very enthusiastic
153
00:07:23,409 --> 00:07:25,421
About sponsoring the
Sparky anderson show.
154
00:07:25,445 --> 00:07:27,389
I think we're sitting
On a gold mine here, cal.
155
00:07:27,413 --> 00:07:30,960
- confidence is the main thing.
- sparky anderson.
156
00:07:30,984 --> 00:07:33,363
It's sparky... That-that
Is... It's spark...
157
00:07:33,387 --> 00:07:35,565
Do you know... Sparky. Sparky.
158
00:07:35,589 --> 00:07:38,434
Oh, god, it's sparky.
159
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:41,571
I know who you
Are, but I'll bet...
160
00:07:41,595 --> 00:07:43,572
I'll just bet you
Don't know who I am.
161
00:07:43,596 --> 00:07:45,975
I'll bet you're herb tarlek.
Johnny mentioned you.
162
00:07:45,999 --> 00:07:48,278
Uh, sparky, I'd like
For you to meet...
163
00:07:48,302 --> 00:07:50,280
I'd like for you to
Meet calvin owens.
164
00:07:50,304 --> 00:07:52,648
He's the sp-sponsor
Of your show.
165
00:07:52,672 --> 00:07:55,184
Old sparky, huh?
166
00:07:55,208 --> 00:07:57,020
Sparky,
167
00:07:57,044 --> 00:08:00,623
On behalf of the 7,000 employees
Of sun luck's petroleum,
168
00:08:00,647 --> 00:08:02,792
I would like to present
You with a quart
169
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:05,895
Of our premium-quality oil
170
00:08:05,919 --> 00:08:08,231
As a special token
Of our esteem to mark
171
00:08:08,255 --> 00:08:10,300
What we all hope
Is just the beginning
172
00:08:10,324 --> 00:08:13,136
Of a long and
Profitable relationship.
173
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,872
Thank you, mr. Owens, but I
Really don't know what to say.
174
00:08:15,896 --> 00:08:19,075
Well, with two hours of
Radio time five days a week,
175
00:08:19,099 --> 00:08:21,199
Let's hope you
Think of something.
176
00:08:26,673 --> 00:08:29,251
This is wrong. This is my slot.
177
00:08:29,275 --> 00:08:31,588
You'd think somebody would at
Least have had the decency to tell me.
178
00:08:31,612 --> 00:08:33,522
Would you please
Get off my case?
179
00:08:33,546 --> 00:08:35,959
It is mr. Carlson's idea.
180
00:08:35,983 --> 00:08:38,360
Okay. Mr. Anderson
Should be here in a moment,
181
00:08:38,384 --> 00:08:40,129
And I guess we're all set to go.
182
00:08:40,153 --> 00:08:42,131
- can I get you anything?
- oh, nothing for me, love.
183
00:08:42,155 --> 00:08:44,534
- okay.
- oh, I tell a lie. Do you have any food?
184
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:46,836
Um... I'm afraid
It's just a machine,
185
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:48,804
And it's only junk food.
186
00:08:48,828 --> 00:08:50,506
- oh, smashing. That's perfect.
- oh, great.
187
00:08:50,530 --> 00:08:51,874
- you know bailey quarters here?
- sure.
188
00:08:51,898 --> 00:08:53,876
And this is venus flytrap,
One of our deejays.
189
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,780
Boy, this is a real pleasure. You
Sure got a rotten deal in this town.
190
00:08:57,804 --> 00:09:00,249
You know, I used to play
Double-a ball down in texas.
191
00:09:00,273 --> 00:09:02,218
- oh, it was back in 19...
- that's terrific.
192
00:09:02,242 --> 00:09:05,388
Mr. Anderson, I would like you to meet
Derek dougal of the cincinnati skids.
193
00:09:05,412 --> 00:09:07,857
Derek, this is
Mr. Sparky anderson.
194
00:09:07,881 --> 00:09:09,992
- oh, yeah. The baseball player.
- manager.
195
00:09:10,016 --> 00:09:12,362
Right. Do you have any food?
196
00:09:12,386 --> 00:09:15,732
Sparky, slide in here, and I'm gonna
Show you how to drive this thing.
197
00:09:15,756 --> 00:09:19,535
I know you're real busy here,
Sparky, but... I got to ask you one thing.
198
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,071
In the '75 series, I
Think it was game six,
199
00:09:22,095 --> 00:09:24,607
The 10th inning, when
Fisk came up to bat,
200
00:09:24,631 --> 00:09:26,976
Did you intentionally
Think of walking him?
201
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,819
I forget, andy. How
Do I work these phones.
202
00:09:28,843 --> 00:09:30,112
Pay attention to the light...
203
00:09:30,136 --> 00:09:32,248
Mr. Anderson...
204
00:09:32,272 --> 00:09:34,383
- oh, here's your food.
- thank you, love.
205
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:37,654
Mr. Anderson, I have a short
Biography here of mr. Dougal
206
00:09:37,678 --> 00:09:39,689
And some possible questions
207
00:09:39,713 --> 00:09:41,424
And some out-of-town
Update scores
208
00:09:41,448 --> 00:09:43,292
In case you want to throw
Them in during the show.
209
00:09:43,316 --> 00:09:45,828
- just throw 'em in?
- yeah, just throw 'em
On in there, sparky.
210
00:09:45,852 --> 00:09:49,264
You know, for three years I
Was down in texas, you know?
211
00:09:49,288 --> 00:09:51,834
Boy, I worked like a dog.
Never did get a break.
212
00:09:51,858 --> 00:09:54,770
Never got an offer from the big
Leagues. How do you figure that?
213
00:09:54,794 --> 00:09:56,694
I guess you stunk, mate.
214
00:09:58,831 --> 00:10:00,542
Never thought of it that way.
215
00:10:00,566 --> 00:10:03,279
- well, good luck, sparky.
- thanks, fly.
216
00:10:03,303 --> 00:10:05,381
- okay, now, sparky...
- andy...
217
00:10:05,405 --> 00:10:07,816
- what?
- I made this intro
For the show.
218
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,153
I know you've all been so busy. I
Thought this might be of some help.
219
00:10:11,177 --> 00:10:14,112
I'm sure the show
Will be a huge success.
220
00:10:15,215 --> 00:10:18,394
Well, uh, thank you, lester.
221
00:10:18,418 --> 00:10:20,396
- you think he means that?
- both: no.
222
00:10:20,420 --> 00:10:23,199
Right. All right,
Sparky, it's time.
223
00:10:23,223 --> 00:10:25,201
Just relax. Have fun, okay?
224
00:10:25,225 --> 00:10:27,002
- no problem.
- good luck.
225
00:10:27,026 --> 00:10:29,272
Thank you, love.
226
00:10:29,296 --> 00:10:31,440
Okay. Here we go.
227
00:10:36,736 --> 00:10:38,714
Yes, brother marley, and
We are the surf riders,
228
00:10:38,738 --> 00:10:40,416
And this is venus
On the rise here,
229
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,451
And I'm going into a holding
Pattern for about two hours,
230
00:10:42,475 --> 00:10:45,188
But I want you to stick around
For something brand new.
231
00:10:48,081 --> 00:10:49,958
Les: les nessman presents,
232
00:10:49,982 --> 00:10:52,428
in cooperation with wkrp sports,
233
00:10:52,452 --> 00:10:54,830
usually done by les nessman,
234
00:10:54,854 --> 00:10:58,133
Sparky's bullpen,
with sparky anderson.
235
00:10:58,157 --> 00:10:59,935
Hi, everybody. This
Is sparky anderson...
236
00:10:59,959 --> 00:11:02,738
instead of les nessman.
237
00:11:02,762 --> 00:11:05,040
Hi, everybody. This
Is sparky anderson,
238
00:11:05,064 --> 00:11:08,944
And welcome to the bullpen,
Brought to you by sun luck's petroleum,
239
00:11:08,968 --> 00:11:11,046
Makers of gasoline, heating oil,
240
00:11:11,070 --> 00:11:13,482
And a crude but
Very hearty wine.
241
00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:16,785
Our first guest for
Tonight's show is derek dougal,
242
00:11:16,809 --> 00:11:20,956
Captain of the cincinnati
Skids indoor soccer team.
243
00:11:20,980 --> 00:11:22,725
Welcome to the bullpen, derek.
244
00:11:22,749 --> 00:11:24,393
- hello.
- hi.
245
00:11:24,417 --> 00:11:26,662
Derek, this indoor
Soccer is a new sport.
246
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:29,498
- could you tell us
Something about it?
- oh, yeah. It's beautiful.
247
00:11:29,522 --> 00:11:32,802
It's soccer played
Indoors, like in a hockey rink.
248
00:11:32,826 --> 00:11:35,337
Sort of soccer-hockey.
249
00:11:35,361 --> 00:11:39,575
Boy, that's an interesting
Combination. What are the rules?
250
00:11:39,599 --> 00:11:42,478
I don't know, really.
251
00:11:42,502 --> 00:11:44,179
I don't care.
252
00:11:44,203 --> 00:11:46,949
I see. How does your team look?
253
00:11:46,973 --> 00:11:50,141
- uh, mostly venezuelan.
- great.
254
00:11:52,612 --> 00:11:54,390
Great.
255
00:11:54,414 --> 00:11:57,626
If you folks out there have got
Any calls, please get them in right now
256
00:11:57,650 --> 00:12:01,152
To 555-wkrp.
257
00:12:04,591 --> 00:12:06,836
Derek, I see here you're
From london, england.
258
00:12:06,860 --> 00:12:09,632
You're a long way from home.
Do you ever get homesick?
259
00:12:09,656 --> 00:12:10,005
I do.
260
00:12:10,029 --> 00:12:13,075
I mostly miss me mum
261
00:12:13,099 --> 00:12:16,312
And her fried sheep's brains
262
00:12:16,336 --> 00:12:18,748
Spread on greasy
Bits of fried bread.
263
00:12:18,772 --> 00:12:21,617
It's lovely. You ever have it?
264
00:12:21,641 --> 00:12:24,153
What?
265
00:12:24,177 --> 00:12:25,888
I said, you ever have it?
266
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:28,224
Okay, derek, let's get
Over here to the phones.
267
00:12:28,248 --> 00:12:30,326
- all right.
- hi, you're in the bullpen.
268
00:12:30,350 --> 00:12:31,727
- man: hello, sparky?
- yeah.
269
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:33,162
- how are you?
- good.
270
00:12:33,186 --> 00:12:34,596
- that's good.
- yeah.
271
00:12:34,620 --> 00:12:36,933
- mm-hmm.
- how are you?
272
00:12:36,957 --> 00:12:39,902
- good.
- that's good.
273
00:12:39,926 --> 00:12:41,960
well, thanks a lot. Bye.
274
00:12:44,231 --> 00:12:47,109
Well, that's number one, derek.
Let's get back to the phones.
275
00:12:47,133 --> 00:12:49,545
- hi, you're in the bullpen.
- man: oh, like, hi, man.
276
00:12:49,569 --> 00:12:53,482
I'm calling about
The free tickets
277
00:12:53,506 --> 00:12:57,686
for the jerry vale-gary
"U.S." bonds concert, man.
278
00:12:57,710 --> 00:12:59,922
I think you got
The wrong number.
279
00:12:59,946 --> 00:13:02,758
- oh, like, is this wkrp?
- sure is.
280
00:13:02,782 --> 00:13:06,562
then I don't have the
Wrong number, pal.
281
00:13:06,586 --> 00:13:08,865
Well, maybe I got
The wrong number.
282
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:23,078
I see here you're 28 years old.
283
00:13:23,102 --> 00:13:25,681
Yes. I am. I'll be 29 next year.
284
00:13:25,705 --> 00:13:27,984
Oh, we got another call.
285
00:13:28,008 --> 00:13:30,052
Oh, beautiful.
286
00:13:30,076 --> 00:13:32,076
Man: hello, police?
287
00:13:33,780 --> 00:13:35,479
Never mind.
288
00:13:44,524 --> 00:13:46,836
Well, all the lines are open.
289
00:13:46,860 --> 00:13:49,005
If you've got any
Calls or any questions,
290
00:13:49,029 --> 00:13:51,607
Just rush 'em in right away.
291
00:13:51,631 --> 00:13:54,309
We've only got...
292
00:13:54,333 --> 00:13:58,413
And hour and 45 minutes to go.
293
00:13:58,437 --> 00:14:03,975
That number again is 555-wkrp.
294
00:14:09,683 --> 00:14:11,643
What's your telephone
Number, derek?
295
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:15,419
I don't think I have one.
296
00:14:17,123 --> 00:14:20,235
You know, we got a new phone
In the anderson household.
297
00:14:20,259 --> 00:14:22,271
Doesn't have all these buttons
298
00:14:22,295 --> 00:14:24,506
And not all these pretty lights,
299
00:14:24,530 --> 00:14:26,564
But it's a beautiful thing.
300
00:14:31,771 --> 00:14:33,671
You live around here?
301
00:14:35,008 --> 00:14:36,340
No.
302
00:14:38,044 --> 00:14:40,011
What's your favorite color?
303
00:14:50,489 --> 00:14:52,134
Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh!
304
00:14:52,158 --> 00:14:54,436
Not your office anymore.
305
00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:57,072
Yeah, I know, but I thought
I'd get something out of here.
306
00:14:57,096 --> 00:15:00,642
Sparky's busy with andy. They're
Going over a new format for the show.
307
00:15:00,666 --> 00:15:03,979
- you think this one will work?
- probably not.
308
00:15:04,003 --> 00:15:05,981
Hi, big guy. Got a minute? Good.
309
00:15:06,005 --> 00:15:08,950
Look, I have been trying
To figure out all week long
310
00:15:08,974 --> 00:15:11,486
What is wrong
With sparky's show.
311
00:15:11,510 --> 00:15:14,289
- yeah, me too.
- yeah, well, I was
Having a bbq
312
00:15:14,313 --> 00:15:16,359
With my neighbor,
Big dick marsham,
313
00:15:16,383 --> 00:15:18,561
And I think he came
Up with an idea that is,
314
00:15:18,585 --> 00:15:21,397
Believe me, bulletproof.
315
00:15:21,421 --> 00:15:24,499
- trivia show.
- trivia?
316
00:15:24,523 --> 00:15:27,903
Yeah. Who was the shortstop
For the '58 milwaukee braves?
317
00:15:27,927 --> 00:15:30,906
Johnny logan.
318
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:33,875
Pretty good for a chick.
How'd you know that, gorgeous?
319
00:15:33,899 --> 00:15:36,278
I study trivia.
320
00:15:36,302 --> 00:15:40,004
That's why I know everything
There is to know about you, herb.
321
00:15:43,842 --> 00:15:45,454
Thank you.
322
00:15:45,478 --> 00:15:48,557
Look, is sparky
In his office here?
323
00:15:48,581 --> 00:15:50,526
- busy with andy.
- right.
324
00:15:50,550 --> 00:15:54,062
Hey, sparky, I know you're busy,
But, uh, think one word: trivia.
325
00:15:54,086 --> 00:15:56,231
- andy: goodbye, herb.
- right. Look, uh,
326
00:15:56,255 --> 00:15:59,156
One question, though,
Sparky: why the white hair?
327
00:16:01,561 --> 00:16:03,071
- just kidding.
- andy: get out!
328
00:16:03,095 --> 00:16:05,763
Absolutely. Really, you
Guys are doing a great j...
329
00:16:07,033 --> 00:16:08,543
Keep up the good work.
330
00:16:08,567 --> 00:16:10,712
Kudos to you.
331
00:16:10,736 --> 00:16:14,450
Stroke of genius. That sparky
Is an asset around here, big guy.
332
00:16:14,474 --> 00:16:16,685
It's not working, herb.
I've made a mistake.
333
00:16:16,709 --> 00:16:18,320
My thinking exactly.
334
00:16:18,344 --> 00:16:19,955
Ooh! What a day.
335
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:22,012
I love oxygen.
336
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:27,029
- say, do any of you
Remember dreams?
- herb: I do.
337
00:16:27,053 --> 00:16:29,999
Yeah, yeah, I keep
Having this same one
338
00:16:30,023 --> 00:16:32,034
Over and over again.
339
00:16:32,058 --> 00:16:34,103
You see, I'm a little kid,
340
00:16:34,127 --> 00:16:38,174
And I walk into my parents'
Bedroom, and my dad says, "Get out,"
341
00:16:38,198 --> 00:16:41,010
And then this monster
Grabs him and takes him away,
342
00:16:41,034 --> 00:16:43,767
And then I crawl into bed
And lie next to my mother.
343
00:16:45,205 --> 00:16:47,682
Stupid, isn't it?
344
00:16:47,706 --> 00:16:49,873
Yes, and kind of embarrassing.
345
00:16:51,344 --> 00:16:53,244
And yet interesting.
346
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,658
I dream every night,
And then I write
347
00:16:56,682 --> 00:16:58,927
These dreams
Down in my journals.
348
00:16:58,951 --> 00:17:02,330
Last night, I had a really weird
Dream about a new show for sparky.
349
00:17:02,354 --> 00:17:04,266
Well, let's hear it.
350
00:17:04,290 --> 00:17:06,368
Well, we were all right
Here just as we are now
351
00:17:06,392 --> 00:17:08,404
Discussing this new
Show with sparky,
352
00:17:08,428 --> 00:17:10,772
Except you didn't look
Like yourself, mr. Carlson.
353
00:17:10,796 --> 00:17:12,763
You looked much
More like a large...
354
00:17:13,966 --> 00:17:16,745
Muffin.
355
00:17:16,769 --> 00:17:18,847
- "Muffin"?
- yes.
356
00:17:18,871 --> 00:17:21,584
A nice breakfast muffin.
357
00:17:21,608 --> 00:17:23,974
And you said you had an
Exciting announcement.
358
00:17:27,447 --> 00:17:29,024
Well?
359
00:17:29,048 --> 00:17:31,760
Well, you sang it.
360
00:17:31,784 --> 00:17:34,430
♪ I'm a big, fat muffin
That loves to eat ♪
361
00:17:34,454 --> 00:17:36,865
♪ I'm a big, fat muffin
That has no feet ♪
362
00:17:36,889 --> 00:17:41,002
♪ but most of all, I'm a big, fat
Muffin that loves to explode ♪
363
00:17:41,026 --> 00:17:42,593
And then you did.
364
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,040
Good afternoon. Wkrp.
365
00:17:57,610 --> 00:17:59,321
- it's your mother.
- I'm not here.
366
00:17:59,345 --> 00:18:01,945
- yes, you are.
- oh, jennifer!
367
00:18:03,883 --> 00:18:05,927
Hello, mom?
368
00:18:05,951 --> 00:18:08,197
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
369
00:18:08,221 --> 00:18:12,668
No, as far as I know, cal
Owens is still 100% behind it.
370
00:18:12,692 --> 00:18:14,870
Uh-huh.
371
00:18:14,894 --> 00:18:18,473
No, I think the show is
Getting better every day.
372
00:18:18,497 --> 00:18:19,742
- besides...
- hi, art.
373
00:18:19,766 --> 00:18:23,479
- hi, sparky.
- I think I've got something.
374
00:18:23,503 --> 00:18:25,147
Oh, you do?
375
00:18:25,171 --> 00:18:28,150
You just hung up on your mother.
376
00:18:28,174 --> 00:18:29,818
Oh, boy.
377
00:18:29,842 --> 00:18:33,289
I think the reason that we've
Only had five calls this week...
378
00:18:33,313 --> 00:18:35,857
I think the people in
This town don't know me.
379
00:18:35,881 --> 00:18:38,594
And I think if I'd reminisce,
Talk about my childhood,
380
00:18:38,618 --> 00:18:42,131
And open up to the people,
I think we'd have a winner.
381
00:18:42,155 --> 00:18:44,533
- right, andy?
- uh... Uh-huh.
382
00:18:44,557 --> 00:18:46,535
I've got to get to my
Office and get to work
383
00:18:46,559 --> 00:18:48,719
And put down some of
Those childhood memories.
384
00:18:50,729 --> 00:18:53,108
It's not gonna work.
385
00:18:53,132 --> 00:18:56,478
I've been thinking, andy,
And I think that we...
386
00:18:56,502 --> 00:18:58,747
You mean "You."
387
00:18:58,771 --> 00:19:02,751
Yeah. Uh, I-I possibly
Could've made a...
388
00:19:02,775 --> 00:19:05,053
- mistake.
- right.
389
00:19:05,077 --> 00:19:07,789
And that means that
One of us is gonna have...
390
00:19:07,813 --> 00:19:09,824
You mean "You."
391
00:19:09,848 --> 00:19:13,328
Yeah, absolutely. I'm gonna have to
Go in there, and I'm gonna have to...
392
00:19:13,352 --> 00:19:15,197
Fire him.
393
00:19:15,221 --> 00:19:17,332
D-don't say that word.
394
00:19:17,356 --> 00:19:20,396
Yeah, but that's, uh... That's
What you're gonna have to do.
395
00:19:28,767 --> 00:19:32,614
Sp... Sparky, may I come in?
396
00:19:32,638 --> 00:19:34,672
Sure, have a seat.
397
00:19:36,676 --> 00:19:39,321
I, uh, just wanted, uh...
398
00:19:39,345 --> 00:19:41,456
To know if everything's okay.
399
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,893
Everybody around here has
Been busting their butts for me.
400
00:19:43,917 --> 00:19:45,661
It's nice to be appreciated.
401
00:19:45,685 --> 00:19:48,163
Yeah. I'll bet you
Love baseball, huh?
402
00:19:48,187 --> 00:19:50,466
- it's my life.
- yeah.
403
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:53,302
Uh, radio gets kind of boring.
404
00:19:53,326 --> 00:19:55,537
You probably think
It's a waste of time.
405
00:19:55,561 --> 00:19:58,440
Is there something you
Want to talk to me about?
406
00:19:58,464 --> 00:20:01,944
Yeah, as a matter
Of fact, there is.
407
00:20:01,968 --> 00:20:05,780
You know, when you're a
Player on a team, sparky,
408
00:20:05,804 --> 00:20:08,483
And everything
Starts to go wrong,
409
00:20:08,507 --> 00:20:10,185
Sometimes you're tempted to...
410
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:12,988
Boy, how do you say it? Quit.
411
00:20:13,012 --> 00:20:15,857
"Quit"? I don't even know
The meaning of that word.
412
00:20:15,881 --> 00:20:17,826
Well, I know that.
413
00:20:17,850 --> 00:20:20,328
You see, that's
My point. I think.
414
00:20:20,352 --> 00:20:23,098
You're drifting on me, arthur.
What are you trying to say?
415
00:20:23,122 --> 00:20:26,635
Well, what I'm trying to say,
Sparky, is... How's it going?
416
00:20:26,659 --> 00:20:28,637
- great.
- no, it's not.
417
00:20:28,661 --> 00:20:31,807
I mean, you're great,
But your show's not,
418
00:20:31,831 --> 00:20:33,675
And I'm afraid I'm
Gonna have to...
419
00:20:33,699 --> 00:20:36,478
- say it.
- f-f-fire you.
420
00:20:36,502 --> 00:20:38,480
Now, that's a word I understand.
421
00:20:38,504 --> 00:20:41,016
I feel bad about that, sparky,
422
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,784
Because it's all my fault.
423
00:20:42,808 --> 00:20:45,086
Art, there's something I
Want to talk to you about.
424
00:20:45,110 --> 00:20:47,756
You're not gonna
Hurt me, are you?
425
00:20:47,780 --> 00:20:50,726
No. No, I'm gonna thank you.
426
00:20:50,750 --> 00:20:53,595
Firing is an old
Business of mine.
427
00:20:53,619 --> 00:20:55,463
Hell, I've had to
Fire a lot of people,
428
00:20:55,487 --> 00:20:57,399
Most of 'em 18-year-old kids.
429
00:20:57,423 --> 00:20:59,267
When you tell
Them they can't do it,
430
00:20:59,291 --> 00:21:01,269
They think you're
Talking about life,
431
00:21:01,293 --> 00:21:03,739
When really all you're
Talking about is second base.
432
00:21:03,763 --> 00:21:05,741
You know, when you run a team,
433
00:21:05,765 --> 00:21:07,375
You have to make decisions.
434
00:21:07,399 --> 00:21:09,778
You had to make a decision
Today: you had to fire me.
435
00:21:09,802 --> 00:21:11,646
And you know
Something? You were right.
436
00:21:11,670 --> 00:21:13,815
Oh, thanks, sparky.
437
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:15,817
You're welcome. It's been fun.
438
00:21:15,841 --> 00:21:17,719
But really concerns
Me, though, sparky,
439
00:21:17,743 --> 00:21:19,621
Is, what are you gonna do?
440
00:21:19,645 --> 00:21:21,657
That's funny. Les called
The network brass,
441
00:21:21,681 --> 00:21:24,626
And they thought I'd be
Perfect for television.
442
00:21:24,650 --> 00:21:27,563
Oh, they'd know.
443
00:21:27,587 --> 00:21:30,365
That's why they're up
There and I'm down here.
444
00:21:30,389 --> 00:21:32,667
I got my team, and
You've got your team.
445
00:21:32,691 --> 00:21:34,470
Hey, I guess that's right.
446
00:21:34,494 --> 00:21:36,271
That's right, arthur, but I
Really want to thank you.
447
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:38,573
Oh, you don't have
To thank me, sparky.
448
00:21:38,597 --> 00:21:41,576
I'm sitting here thanking the
Man that canned me. I must be nuts.
449
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,535
Every time I come in
To this town, I get fired.
450
00:21:47,506 --> 00:21:49,984
Sparky, I want you to know
That I'm sorry this didn't work out.
451
00:21:50,008 --> 00:21:53,521
If ever there's anything I can ever
Do for you, you just let me know.
452
00:21:53,545 --> 00:21:56,124
- you mean that, sparks?
- I sure do.
453
00:21:56,148 --> 00:21:58,828
- can I have your
Championship ring?
- no.
454
00:22:00,953 --> 00:22:02,452
You dog.
455
00:22:04,123 --> 00:22:06,234
Man: wkrp in cincinnati
456
00:22:06,258 --> 00:22:08,018
will be back after this.
457
00:22:27,780 --> 00:22:29,246
Les?
458
00:22:31,684 --> 00:22:33,996
Les, will you speak to me?
459
00:22:34,020 --> 00:22:37,332
- is it important?
- well, I think it is.
460
00:22:37,356 --> 00:22:39,523
Come in, then.
461
00:22:43,795 --> 00:22:47,709
I just wanted to come over
And tell you that I'm sorry.
462
00:22:47,733 --> 00:22:51,079
I went with a free agent, and
We had the talent right here.
463
00:22:51,103 --> 00:22:54,516
- I'm listening.
- look, I still think this...
464
00:22:54,540 --> 00:22:57,252
This syndicated sports
Show is a great idea.
465
00:22:57,276 --> 00:23:00,221
It's just a question
Of the right man.
466
00:23:00,245 --> 00:23:01,990
You had the right man.
467
00:23:02,014 --> 00:23:04,359
It was the idea that was a dog.
468
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:06,950
Sparky and nessman are pals.
469
00:23:08,954 --> 00:23:12,600
That's right, herb. Sparky
And I are very close.
470
00:23:12,624 --> 00:23:15,325
You're just jealous
'cause you didn't get a ball.
471
00:23:17,329 --> 00:23:19,574
- a ball?
- autographed.
472
00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:22,444
- autographed?
- mm-hmm.
473
00:23:22,468 --> 00:23:25,735
"To my pal, les nessman."
474
00:23:28,407 --> 00:23:30,652
"Sparky anderson."
475
00:23:30,676 --> 00:23:33,355
Les, I don't
Suppose that you'd...
476
00:23:33,379 --> 00:23:35,657
- it's a matched set.
- hmm?
477
00:23:35,681 --> 00:23:37,581
Goes with the ring.
