This movie seems like it should be pretty damn good. Certainly a bit of a different vibe than Annie Potts!

(34,136 posts)Probably the smartest character on the show - though Bailey was a close second. Jennifer had a union: "When asked if she belongs to a union, she says she is a member of the exclusive "Sisterhood of Blond Receptionists," adding "If you saw our minimum salary, you'd have a heart attack and die."" And she had the highest salary at WKRP! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Marlowe#Jennifer_at_WKRP (The entire Wikipedia article on Jennifer is a fun read.)
I hope they play his character as smart as hers!
