SCRIPTED TV SHOWS WITH SINGLE EPISODES ABOUT RADIO

These shows have a single episode that features radio. We are not including episodes that only mention radio as a minimal part of the plot, such as a show's character calling into a radio show and winning tickets with no other mention of radio. This chapter features shows that normally have nothing to do with radio but that have an episode that has substantial radio presence.

These could be scripted shows like comedies, dramas or mysteries, or could be reality shows, kids shows or cartoons. Examples range from a sitcom character dating a radio DJ, a radio shock jock murdered, housemates on a reality show interviewed on a radio show or an animated character hosting his own show in a single episode of the series.

We have over 150 episodes that we have already tracked down. We now want you to mention an episode, explain how radio was involved in the plot, how realistic it was and how well you think the show portrayed the medium. Then rate the show on our FOUR MICROPHONE scale (see chapter one or chapter two or the sidebar on the front page).

We are NOT including shows with the following: CB radio, ham radio, police radio, non-American programs, or where the plot just revolves around the radio receiver. Also check the other chapters to see the types of shows that fit other categories.
