In addition to WKRP, Frank also acted in, and directed several episodes of, Saved By The Bell: The New Class.  8)

He’s probably in that big studio in the sky, yucking it up with Screech and Mr. Carlson.

That just leaves Lonie Anderson, Jan Smithers, Richard Landers, Andy Sanders, Tim Reid, and Howard Hessman left in the cast.

I’d like to see another WKRP reboot, with the remaining cast members.  8)

Maybe a younger cast of actors in this WKRP reboot and some of the actors could make some appearances in this reboot.

I remember that one.  It didn't last as long as the first one did.

Interesting...

(That's right, Dustin Diamond stayed in the "New Class" as an admin assistant to Mr. Belding.)
