Series creator
Paul Simms said in interviews following the conclusion of Newsradio's final season that if the show were to be renewed the entire premise of the series would shift to
Dave Nelson running a small town
radio station in a little corner of
New Hampshire with the rest of the cast working at their usual jobs in the office. However, the twist would be that
Wisconsin-native
Dave would be completely at ease in small town life and everyone else would be lost in their new surroundings, echoing the original premise of the show's pilot in which small-towner
Dave comes to the
big city and experiences culture shock.
However, since the series did not get the chance to explore this plot we must assume that Dave and Matthew remain working at WNYX together and alone for all eternity, seeing as how that's how the series finale left them.
