This is true. Which is why I think the apparent success of the Freaks and Geeks and SCTV sets is much stronger evidence that a show with very high music licensing costs can be sold for a higher price and still find people willing to buy it. That is, as long as the show has a strong enough following, and I think WKRP does. In fact WKRP's fan base may be somewhat similar to SCTV's (the Comedy Network in Canada used to run WKRP right after SCTV on weekdays, and because they were produced around the same time -- not to mention the fact that WKRP had some Second City people as writers -- they actually went together quite well).
