oh Loni...

Posted by grimreaper on 8/6/2025, 12:36 pm

I WAS A BIG FAN OF THE SHOW, AND HER...

Almighty has claimed actress Loni Anderson @79 yrs..
I loved the entire cast, especially the hippie DJ, and the Black DJ too, who to me was one of the coolest black guys on tv(venus flytrap)..
MAY LONI ANDERSON REST IN PEACE IN BLONDE HEAVEN FOREVER. AMEN

Signed: so what if I got a craving for snowy white blondes, much like Mr TheOne, so what?...grimreaper

I, too, loved WKRP and Venus Flytrap (Tim Reid) was my favorite character. He went on to be a big star in Simom and Simon.

One of the best shows on tv ever was Frank’s Place, the short-lived CBS comedy\drama about a former Brown University professor who inherits a restaurant in Louisiana. The series received quite a few awards. Reid played the professor.

Yes, Loni Anderson was a sweetheart. And being from St. Paul, Minnesota I can tell you she wasn’t fake, like people from a lot of cities snd states.

Tim Reid is great, too, indeed. He simply advised we get a script written, for my novel, several years ago when a mutual friend of ours presented him my book. I’m finally working on a script. Hmmm, he’s culturally sensitive enough to make “The Awakening of Khufu” happen on the big screen—

Oh man, you're killing me with this! Such wonderful info.

This short video/interview is EXACTLY WHO Tim Reid is & what he represents!
Dude is authentic as hell!
If only the Black community had more of an awareness and consciousness of a personality like him!
And i'm singling the Black community only because we so desperately need his role model type in our popular culture instead of the clowns, gangstas, idiots like Stephen A. Smith, Shannon Sharpe, P.Diddy etc etc etc

He considers himself like a "Black Forest Gump" in terms of career moves and finding himself in the strangest of circumstances?
