You are correct...it was great! And the lead up to it just set it off. That was a funny show.
"Dude, you got some Artz on you."
"To read makes our speaking English good."
NEVER SAY NEVER!

I think that episode is one of the funniest ever on TV.
I was first bowled over by Les's play-by-play where, channeling the Hindenburg disaster, he saw the turkeys falling and plaintively called out, "Oh...the humanity..." as the turkeys plummeted from the sky to the parking lot.
Okay, my most often used movie line:
"Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!"
The other great line from that WKRP episode was:
Les Nesman: "The turkeys are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement."
From the Sarah Silverman show recently:
Cop at the window of Sarah's car: Ma'am, do you know why I'm standing here?
Sarah: Because you got all C's in high school.
