Remember WENNRating: 3.7/5 (with 2 votes)
Remember WENN is a comedy-drama television series that aired from 1996 to 1998 on the cable channel American Movie Classics, as the network's first scripted original series. Created and written by Rupert Holmes (with music also by Holmes) and set at the fictional Pittsburgh radio station WENN in the late 1930s and early 1940s, it depicted events (both dramatic and comic) in the personal and professional lives of the station's staff in the era before and during World War II and the Golden Age of Radio. It is not related to the real radio station in Alabama known with the WENN callsign from 1959 to 1983 and again since 2009. The series title is a play on the phrase "remember when". The show ran for four seasons totalling 56 episodes, including an hour-long Christmas episode. The series was slated for a fifth season, but was cancelled when new management took over AMC. Holmes says that it was his favorite writing experience of his career. After decades of being unavailable to audiences, all four seasons of the series are currently streaming on AMC+ and PLEX TV. ()

#4 | 07/10/1998And If I Die Before I Sleep
Can WENN beat radio station WTN in Philadelphia's record by staying on the air nonstop for three days? And with no sleep? You can certainly bet they're going to try! Witness the breakdown of coherent speech, the ability to sleep sideways on a stool, the genius of ping pong balls and india ink, and why Eugenia Bremer needs her morning cup of coffee.
#5 | 07/17/1998Hilary's Agent
Antony and Cleopatra have found their way to Pittsburgh and Hilary wants the title role! Unfortunately, her agent Wilbur (although he calls himself Brian), has neglected to see to Hilary's best interests in securing the part for her. So she decides to take matters into her own hands. Enter the creation of Doris Snithing (Snively). Will Hilary manage to not only get back to Broadway but get herself a spectacular new agent? Or will her sudden case of multiple personalities backfire?
#6 | 07/24/1998Birth of a Station
Proof once again that if you're waitressing in a roadhouse, never fall for the man who delivers oranges and grapefruits. When Pittsburgh is shut down due to a strike, the WENN crew gets a real emergency on their hands with a woman arriving to see Dr. Talbot. Which would be great except that Dr. Talbot is a character on one of their shows and Cora is about to have a baby. Will the ambulance get there on time? Or will all of Pittsburgh share in welcoming a new little miracle?
#7 | 07/31/1998The Follies Of WENN
As if the Winthrop brothers haven't had enough of WENN. Luke Winthrop pleads his case before Betty and Scott that his school is in dire need of one thousand dollars or it will be forced to close. What to do? Put on a burlesque show, of course. Maple, Eugenia, and Betty get their own solo numbers, Hilary gets to hold an audience in the palm of her hand...or glove, and Scott and Jeff do a comedy routine. Unfortunately, all this is taking place while certain residents of the Barbican Hotel for Women (Betty and Maple) are under scrutiny and if they're caught, they might lose their rooms. The surprise twist at the end is worth being raided for.
