Such a down to earth interview. Loni interviewed with the class and honesty I had hoped to see in her and WOW, what a social circle of A listers she had throughout the years. Love to hear more from her!

[@lidagreenaway3588]

Harvey what a great interview. She is so lovely. Loved all of her stories could have listened forever. Love how comfortable you are with these amazing people. So great

This was fantastic. I had no idea how down to earth and human she is. Fabulous interview.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you so much!

[@hiddengoldbook]

Totally enjoyed that interview. The two of you had such a great connection. I felt like you were sitting on a couch shmoozing. Interesting, accomplished, admirable woman and you brought out some fabulous info Harvey.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you so much Ella!!

[@TheRavenal]

Fabulous interview! I wish Loni was more active doing interviews and acting so we could see more of her. Thank you for showcasing her.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

It was a real pleasure having Loni on our show. She’s a gracious, kind and beautiful human being inside and out. Thank you so much for watching our show, and for taking the time to post your comment. 🙏❤️

[@robertspence5071]

Great interview Harvey. It's obvious that Loni was equally impressed with your research and interview skills. You managed to get way below the surface in bringing out the character of this quite remarkable woman ... It's clear how she was able to play Jennifer in such a convincing way.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you so much!❤️

[@caradecaballo]

What really caught my attention about this interview is Loni’s beautiful speaking voice. She seems so centered. She is so smart and has a big heart. What a wonderful conversation this was and that last portion where she talks about her 1st love. How nice to hear celebrities are so human and have great stories to share. Thank you Harvey.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Interviewing Loni was an absolute joy. I’m still in afterglow from the experience!! Thanks so much for watching and for your beautiful comments. Greatly appreciated.

[@harveybrownstone7840]

If you think you know Loni Anderson, think again. This interview was so candid, so intimate and so personal - unlike any interview she's ever done. I'm REALLY proud of this very special episode of our show. And I absolutely fell in love with Loni. She's so sincere, genuine, and compassionate - the real deal!! Thank you Loni for an unforgettable experience!

[@debranawracaj3303]

Such a wonderful in-depth interview. I enjoyed it immensely. And learned some information I didn’t know about the actress. She was definitely at the forefront of Portraying a beautiful and intelligent woman on TV! Glad she advocated for the role to be played that way. WKRP was one of my favorite programs. And she was the grounding center of all of the Flaky and funny guys in the studio. Loni you should definitely write another book AND do a one woman show. You have such interesting and heartwarming stories to tell.

[@mitchlauer]

Loni talked about NOT being in Nevada Smith. Even IMDB has her listed in this cast!!!!!!

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Yup. That’s where I got it from. Very embarrassing. And a first for me!

[@JRandyTaraborrelli]

Man! I gobbled this up. It was so good. Wow

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you so much! This feedback from you means a lot!

[@theanimationcommendation]

Loved WKRP! And loved hearing how she met her current husband!

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you not only for watching, but for your wonderful comments. You’ve become one of my favorite viewers!! Thank you so much for supporting our show!❤️

[@briannorber978]

I wish I could remember everything I wanted to say! I got so caught up in the interview that I didn’t write things down. Lonnie is amazing and so real and so comfortable in her skin it seems. And of course, as always, you make everyone so comfortable. What a wonderful interview. This was really special. You bring things out that we didn’t know Harvey. And you’re right, Lonnie has more books on her. Her spirit is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you so much Brian for really understanding and absorbing what makes these interviews special and uniquely distinct from any other interviews out there.

[@susankendal8167]

Loni's role in WKRP truly helped change the stereotype of a beautiful woman. Thank you for this wonderful interview Harvey.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Oh Susan I so appreciate you digging deep into our inventory of shows. I’m so proud of this interview because I created an ambiance that made Loni feel comfortable talking about her relationship with Burt Reynolds.

[@susankendal8167]

@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 I recall watching Burt often on Johnny Carson. They laughed and laughed together

[@mscarolynnigro]

My God this woman has really kept it together ! She looks amazing . How old is she ????

[@dubbelhenke854]

You should never judge things beforehand. 😉 Have never had any interest in Loni, her work didn't show up much in Sweden (or I was perhaps blocking it out as the type of shows she played in, wasn't my cup of tea.) But as person I found her very simpatico and intelligent, with great sense of humor. You are so relaxed and honest with you guests, so it really is a delight to see and hear how comfortable they are feeling, many of them congratulaing you as to being so well prepared - and you truly are. It is embarrassing when celebrities are interviewed by someone who hasn't checked or researched - that leads to boring and irritating questions. You are a real pro Harvey!

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I am very grateful that you found our show, and that you appreciate the work I put into every interview, as well as my interviewing style. Thank you so much for your support of our show. Please spread the word about our show!!🙏❤️

Jennifer Moves is the funniest WKRP episode. The writing and acting, just fantastic. Particularly love the performance in that episode by guest star Judith-Marie Bergan.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I loved that episode too

[@MsBackstager]

I can't wait to watch you and Loni @ your interviewing crafts.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I will anxiously await your feedback

[@MsBackstager]

@@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980 The interview was a total WOW!!! Now I just must watch (or maybe even rewatch) her movie as Jayne Mansfield and her other stuff. TY dear Harvey for this.

[@slc2466]

Loni really was something new on WKRP- I remember a friend of my mom's, who was smart and a voracious reader, commenting how much she liked the beautiful-but-intelligent blonde on WKRP, who always knew the score.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I absolutely adore Loni. She’s a beautiful person inside and out. Thank you for watching our show. 🙏❤️

[@gabe-po9yi]

I always thought Ms. Anderson was classy, but my respect for her rose exponentially when she didn’t respond to Burt Reynolds’ stories because of their son. I was appalled at his behavior and I no longer liked him, wouldn’t read any of the stories, wouldn’t watch him on TV. It wasn’t because he was talking about her, specifically, but rather that he would talk so publicly and so disparagingly about any woman. I didn’t give a crap whether the stories were true or not; it should’ve stayed between the two of them.

[@mariestoeberl9373]

A warm sweet lady ,Lonnie Anderson. Another great interview mr brownstone !

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Thank you Marie. Please feel free to call me Harvey.

[@janicescott6569]

She is a class act!

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Very much so! Thanks for watching!!

[@dav1237]

At 13:04 she meant Jay Bernstein, not Jay Sandrich.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Correct

[@Lovemy60to70era]

I like Loni Anderson and feel she has always been down to earth and very mature. Loni has never looked better. I also got a kick out of Burt Reynolds however I think he had major insecurities and he stabbed himself in the foot with female relationships. Loni was grounded and good for him but what does he do while making Evening Shade he cheats. Burt was not a gentleman when he wanted a divorce. Ok I will say his last movie The Last Movie Star. Loni is a class act. Blessings ❤

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I agree!

[@MsBackstager]

As an aside - I never liked the character of Chrissie in THREE'S COMPANY. She was too flaky as it was thought all blondes are/were.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I agree

[@frederickcombs8661]

She ruined Burt Reynolds

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

Read Adrienne Barbeau’s book. According to her, Burt was a mess long before Loni came along. Dinah Shore also said the same thing.

[@MaleOrderBride]

That is absolutely not true, Frederick. Shame on you.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

@MaleOrderBride I agree that Loni in no way “ruined” Burt.

[@walcoman]

She's awesome, but that's one serious trainwreck of plastic surgery, dear lord. 😢

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

I think she’s beautiful!!

[@marcathens2951]

Terrible thing to say ! Look past that and focus on her intelligence and gracious manner instead !

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

@marcathens2951 I agree 100%

[@jamesdellaneve9005]

I disagree. She looks beautiful. Her intellect and personality are vibrant as well. What’s interesting about KRP is that she played the beauty, but had a brain and a powerful and serious presence.

[@harveybrownstoneinterviews8980]

@jamesdellaneve9005 I agree!
