About NewsRadio
NewsRadio opened March 1995 on NBC with 7 episodes about WNYX under Dave Nelson and Bill McNeal with the oddball staff aboard. Season 2 ran 21 episodes, season 3 ran 25 as the longest run, and season 4 ran 22 with Phil Hartman through 1998.
Season 5 ran 22 episodes to May 1999 with Jon Lovitz as Max Lewis after Hartman death shocked the show badly. The finale closes the station stories without a film to follow afterward. No revival has been ordered, with the cast scattered to later sitcoms and films.
Good to know
Watch seasons 1 through 5 in air order from start to finish. The Hartman seasons set the station timing that season 5 must work around after the loss, so the recast lands better in sequence. The show stays episodic, but office romances thread across years. The finale works as a quiet close rather than a stunt.
