Must say I really enjoyed this, with all the overblown movies that have a ton of special effects and millions of dollars thrown into so many forgettable movies now it's nice to know that there are just good movies that are still made. I'm not saying this is the best western ever made, but for what the actors are given and just a solid revenge story it is certainly well made.

Beautiful cinematography of the Wyoming state, and of all the actors I must say the young Ryan Kiera Armstrong gives a nice subtle performance that also really brings the movie together. I won't give away the movie with all kinds of spoilers, please, go check it out in the theatre if it's showing it's certainly not a waste of time. I think you will find just a good movie.

After all the positive reviews here it's hard not to agree or say the same of what has already been said about this series. Perfect casting all the way down the line, yes there were a few episodes that fell into the TV tropes at the time but to have episodes like the Turkeys Away episode that everyone seems to remember, to an episode of the tragedy at The Who concert. Or Venus teaching a kid in a gang about the Atom in such a way that even I remember, what incredibly smart TV to make you think and laugh at the same time.

This series was also placed after M. A. S. H. for a time on Mondays when M. A. S. H. was the number one series on TV and WKRP actually scored higher in the Nielsen ratings really says something. CBS floated this series all over the place for four seasons squeaking out 90 episodes. The series was so popular in reruns during the 80's that in the early 90's they brought it back in syndication called the New WKRP in Cincinnati.

I guess most of all I always enjoyed it since it's original run and in reruns, it brought a huge smile to me and some laugh out loud moments. Comfort TV when I needed it the most. Thank you Dr. Johnny Fever, The Big Guy Carlson , Venus, Andy, Bailey, Herb, Les, Jennifer you made this TV watcher very happy.

R. I. P. To Howard Hessman, Frank Bonner and Gordon Jump, hopefully Led Zepplins song Stairway to Heaven sang them off to that Rock-N-Roll station in the sky...

Must admit it's been a long time since I've seen a number of these episodes of Fantasy Island, probably since it's original run. Have a station that's airing this again and figured I would give it a try. I've just seen a handful of episodes and see how simple a lot of the stories are presented. But must admit that even for its simple approach and having grown up watching this on its Saturday nights so long ago that I've been enjoying them.

This particular episode with Don Knotts and Bernie Kopell and a lot of familiar faces such as Lynda Day George, Rick Jason and Nancy Walker, even character actors like Frank Aletter and Jack Ging and even John Fiedler was a lot of fun to watch. Yes it's light entertainment and must agree with the other reviewer that Knotts's segment is him playing his normal self, but it fit perfectly with how the episode should have gone.

Simply had a lot of fun just watching this episode and shows why the format went so well with The Love Boat preceding it. Looking forward to seeing more of the series again...
