Death and the sitcom
#11
RE: Death and the sitcom
Though it didn't involve the death of a person, the Thanksgiving episode of "WKRP In Cincinnati" is a classic. The station manager arranges what he believes will be an unforgettable promotional gimmick on behalf of the station, involving letting loose a number of turkeys from a helicopter hovering over the city's Thanksgiving parade. Their witless weather man, Les Nessman, is reporting the event live on air, and as the doomed fowl rain down horribly on downtown Cincinnati, his broadcast becomes a parody of the famous Hindenburg broadcast. Later, the shell-shocked manager enters the station office and declares, "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly."
