Metaphor:
We (the viewers of WKRP) are the drunk guy. How?
The TV Show is so good that we want more, like a drunk wants more alcohol.
Even though we want more, we don't need more and it's time to stop.
We can stop watching the show and leave the TV, just like the drunk guy who attempts to leave on his own and is proud of himself when he does.
