A new guy buys the TV station and to hear the news crew tell it the new owner is running roughshod over the whole crew! This is all being done by way of memos and phone calls,as the new owner has yet to show his face.
The memos from the new owner are asking the news crew to make all sorts of seemingly arbitrary and counter-productive changes to the news crew's tried-and-true format that they had developed and adjusted over many years.
Murray Slaughter,played by Gavin McCleod,leads the charge in pushing back against this new boss and his ill-advised ideas. (McCleod was later 'Captain Stubing' for many good years on 'The Love Boat') Our man Murray gets the idea to send this new owner/bossman a rude phone message (drunk dial ?) complaining about all the needless changes etc demanded in the memos. The stage is set for a 'showcase showdown' between Murray and the new station owner.
What will happen?
You gotta watch and see for yourself,I don't want to spoil the WHOLE dog-gone show ! 🤡
