Yesterday’s dumb idea: A WKRP-Muppet Show crossover episode.
They both were airing during the years 1978 - 1981.
Admittedly, the Muppet production was based in England, but a partial detachment of the Muppet team to LA for a WKRP episode wouldn’t have been impossible.
The only A-plot I can imagine is an Electric Mayhem show in Cincinnati, and WKRP covering it like any other rock concert.
And WKRP’s Andy Travis was basically the Kermit of the show - trying to keep the chaos moving in a positive direction.
Sam the Eagle and Les Nessman certainly could have bonded.
Mostly, I thought of this just for the running gag of Dr. Johnny Fever assuming that seeing Gonzo, Fozzy, and Animal was just more drug flashbacks.
“I swear, man, there was this little red furry guy standing behind Jennifer, groaning,’wo-man’...”
