Trivia:
The advertisement that was presented by the men in military uniforms was an actual advertisement for the delayed entry program which offered new recruits the opportunity to "grow your hair one more time". It was an attempt to make the Army more hip in light of the changing culture shortly after the Vietnam war. moreQuotes:

This little gem is one of the most under-appreciated movies of the late 1970s. It's an episodic comedy with serious undertones. The film perfectly captures the feel of the late 1970s. The casting is great, with a passionate performance by Michael Brandon and a very funny one by Martin Mull. The background music is just right and the concert appearances of Jimmy Buffett and Linda Ronstadt add to the late 1970s atmosphere. Despite what other reviews have stated, Tom Petty does NOT appear in concert, he's being interviewed at the radio station. REO Speedwagon also appears at a record store signing. If you're a fan of WKRP, then check out this movie.
