Other employees at the station include: Jack Allen (Michael Des Barres) and Dana Burns (Kathleen Garrett), a feuding couple going through a divorce while doing a joint morning show; Arthur Carlson Jr. (Lightfield Lewis), Arthur's son and an aspiring salesman; Mona Loveland (Tawny Kitaen), the new late-night DJ brought in by Donovan; Ronnie Lee (Wendy Davis), the receptionist; Claire Hartline (Hope Alexander-Willis), the station's continuity and traffic director; and Buddy Dornster (John Chappell), the incompetent and shell-shocked station engineer who served with Arthur Sr. in the Korean War. In the second season, Burns & Allen were replaced by morning DJ Razor Dee (French Stewart).

The show lasted two years and featured guest appearances by several of the original cast: Howard Hessman, Jennifer Marlowe, and Venus Flytrap.
