Venus Flytrap (WKRP in Cincinnati)
Venus Flytrap is a character on the television situation comedy ''WKRP in Cincinnati'' (1978-82), played by Tim Reid. He is the evening and early night-time disc jockey at WKRP, and during the course of the series he also becomes the assistant program director.〔(Kassel, Michael B., ''America's Favorite Radio Station: WKRP in Cincinnati'' Popular Press, 1993 ISBN 0-87972-584-2, ISBN 978-0-87972-584-6 )〕
==Development==
Concerning the shortage of roles for black actors on television in his era, Tim Reid said, "My character is one of very few in television today. It's not just regression, it's a ''push'' backward....My character has had some growing pains. My character went against the network's set pattern for a black character." He elaborates that Venus Flytrap "started out as a subordinate character, but he's grown with each episode....I'm a follower of Taoism and I've been able to work some of that into my character. He's relaxed, and sometimes you'll see the yin-yang (opposites that create all) symbol in the background. The character is being seen, but most people still seem to have a problem venturing into what a black person is really like. It would be interesting to go into that character's home."〔As quoted in Kelly Scott, "(Tim Reid sends out a strong signal for 'WKRP' show )," ''St. Petersburg Times'' (July 11, 1981): 5B.〕
