❓ Question
Fans identify the episode with the postal truck fire and the famous "Oh the humanity!" line as "The Pothole," comparing the Hindenburg reference to a similar classic moment from WKRP in Cincinnati.

The Pothole - the van explodes when it comes in contact with the paint thinner Kramer spilled.
BTW - This use of the Hindenberg disaster line pales in comparison with the use of the line by Les Nessman in WKRP. I met Gordon Jump (The Big Guy - Arthur Carlson) who was doing a Maytag gig in Toronto this spring. We talked about the show and he said people still ask him to repeat the line..."As god is my witness I thought turkeys could fly."
