The Only Actors Still Alive From The Cast Of WKRP In Cincinnati
What's perhaps most interesting is how few of those still left have gotten any major acting gigs since the show folded.

Re: The Only Actors Still Alive From The Cast Of WKRP In Cincinnati
Even Hugh Wilson, the show's creator is gone.
I once checked out the "New WKRP". The cast included the now deceased Tawney Kitean as Mona (a nighttime jock, which in 1991, was on its way out in small markets... lol) There was a scene where the staff was at some sort of party, and in one shot you have Herb, Mona and Mr Carlson, all looking to their left. I think to myself, this is only 1991, and yet they're all gone. Poof!
Even take the Jeffersons. Now I realize that the mid to late 70s are awhile ago, but it's not THAT long ago. That whole cast, except for Jenny (Belinda Tolbert) and the replacement Lionel are all deceased - EVERYBODY!
Speaking of "Everybody", all of the "Raymond" parents; Peter Boyle, Doris Roberts, Robert Culp, Katherine Helmond and even Amy's parents played by Georgia Engel and Frank Willard are ALL gone now. And that show only ended in 2005.
