VenusTime to get the funk out your face, Cincinnati!
VenusThis is WKRP in Cincinnati, with more music and Les Nessman.
Venus[about racism] We've cut down the tree, but the roots run pretty deep.
Venus[on Herb's suit] Somewhere there's a Volkswagen without seat covers.
Venus[on getting older] I took a look at my wardrobe, and I asked myself, "does a grown man dress like this?"
Venus[to Andy] If you're not back in four hours, I'm going all Christmas music! Think about it, I mean it!
Les. Never in my life has someone broken a date with me.
VenusI heard that.
VenusYou never went to college.
Hey man, I went through Princeton!
VenusI'll bet.
I did. It was in a car. A squad car, actually. Very, very educational.
Dip?
VenusNone for me, thanks.
Do you have any chips?
What do you want, the world?
Now listen, these are the copy points you have to work into the jingle, ok? A: 'All weather floral arrangements'...
VenusWhat does that mean?
Uh, that's plastic flowers.
...B: 'Maintenance free artificial turf'....
Plastic grass....
...C: 'They accept all major credit cards'.
That would be your plastic money.
[Singing] Hey! You're young and swingin'
No time to think about tomorrow
But there any no way to deny it
Some day, you're gonna buy it
Plan today for a Ferryman tomorrow!
VenusAndy, Little Ed weighs about 300 pounds.
He does?
VenusThat's right.
Why do they call him Little Ed?
VenusBecause his wife is Big Ed.
Listen, Venus, how do things look in the black community?
VenusOh, same old thing. Big lush lawns, manicured hedges. Living's easy. Fish are jumpin', cotton oh 'bout so high... Daddy's rich. I suppose you don't wanna hear about my momma, huh?
Let me ask you a question - am I the guard, or one of the nuts?
VenusI think you're a guard on the way to becoming a nut.
Everything I could've done to fix this station, I didn't do. Now is that right or what?
VenusHow could you have fixed this station?
For starters: first thing I should've done was get rid of Herb. The worst sales manager in the world. The worst. And Les? Oh, Les. When the Shah of Iran was overthrown, he missed it completely. His lead story for the day was about a hog that could do addition and subtraction.
