Back when they originally aired the show, you could play bits of hit songs on the show, no problem. (For the youthful and/or non-North American members, WKRP was a great sitcom about a Cinncinati, Ohio radio station, so the songs were a big part of the show.)

Today, it would cost a fortune to secure the rights to use that same music, so reruns are pretty well out of the question.

Same problem with The Wonder Years.

...because securing the rights to the music is now prohibitively expensive.

That's why they took them off the air.

You very well may be right Richard as I had asked just a few years ago if they were bringing WKRP onto DVD, and that's what they said, the rights are just to expensive.


They did make some, but the music is fake.
