  • WKRP in Cincinnati is finally coming to DVD, hopefully with much of the music intact. According to studio Shout! Factory, WKRP has a “complicated history of music rights restrictions. To make this the most comprehensive DVD release possible, we are doing our best to include every scene uncut and to license as much original music as possible.” The 13-disc set carries an MSRP of $139.99 but Amazon is accepting pre-orders at a 10% discount.
