Loni Anderson, who played radio station receptionist on the 70's sit-com WKRP In Cincinatti, has died. She was 79. Sources say Anderson suffered from a prolonged illness.
The show, about a struggling radio station, turning to rock programming contrary to the wishes of its strait-laced owner.
Anderson played owner Mr. Carlson's confident, Jennifer Marlowe. She was able to hold her own against the advances of married sales manager Herb Tarlek.
The Jennifer character jibed with other shows of that period like Charlie's Angels and Three's Company.
