I shouldn't be, but I am a bit surprised when I look and see so few of these old TV shows streaming. I remember watching a few episodes of WKRP in the day, and wanted to watch a couple. At least old Night Court is on Prime, so maybe I'll watch a few of those since I have a vague recollection of watching that one a bit.
Ranking it at #25 overall, it is my #10th ranked comedy. Absolutely brilliant show!80 - NewsRadio

Blast from the past. I liked the show enough but it never crossed my mind to include it here. Probably because it didn't get the syndication run where you stumbled upon it all the time. Don't think I have seen it all since it originally aired.80 - NewsRadio

I had already gone streaming by then - starting around 2008, I basically haven't seen anything from the networks.
WKRP is a special case, because of how expensive it is acquire the rights to stream other people's music. It would be prohibitively expensive to stream the WKRP episodes in their original form.
I keep forgetting that part of the equation. The same issue that kept another I assume we will see soon from being on discs and streaming.
You also can't find the original episodes of Beavis and Butt-Head streaming anywhere legally for that reason.

That's funny, I always wanted to see more of Daisy Duke.
Ha ha. Daisy Duke and Lynda Carter as Wonderwomen was my first exposure to me feeling a certain way about things as a youth
Mine, like many others, was the Farrah Fawcett poster.

Huge fan of this show, obviously, and have watched the entire series several times. Gilfoyle vs. Danesh, Erlich vs. Jian-Yiang, Jared vs. himself (and Holden), Jian-Yiang vs. everyone, etc. Constant hilarity, even if each season follows the same, fairly predictable, format.
Hell yeah! I've never watched SNL, but tuned in weekly for this.

The whole middle out compression scene is one of the funniest things I have ever seen
Their SWOT analysis was pretty great too
There’s some real subtle stuff too, I think they had like adult websites or something at a convention and one of them was Non-Consensual Santa
The whole Not Hotdog thing
Bighead being a complete moron but falling into great jobs

The cast was stacked and the writing was usually hilarious. This is the other '90s sketch comedy show I was talking about in my Mr. Show blurb.
