- Why was the show set in Cincinnati? “I liked the way it sounded,” series creator Hugh Wilson told Enquirer TV/radio editor Steve Hoffman in March 1978.
- Cincinnati cinematographer Bob Gerding filmed the local scenes in the opening and closing credits, including shots of the Tyler Davidson Fountain, Roebling Suspension Bridge, Fort Washington Way, Central Trust Bank Tower and Riverfront Stadium.
- And the tower featured behind the show’s titles? That was for television, not radio. It was the old WLWT transmission tower at 2222 Chickasaw St. in Clifton Heights, which was dismantled in 2005.
- The show used the old Enquirer building at 617 Vine St. as the exterior shot of the Osgood R. Flimm building, where the WKRP offices were said to be located on the ninth floor.
