This movie is very uniquely Will Ferrell-style comedy. He assumes the now iconic character of Ron Burgundy and just runs with the ridiculous nonsense. It is very fast paced, with jokes in rapid succession. The jokes are not as memorable as those one-liners from the first film,, but many of them hit the nail right on the head thanks to good execution. The cast has mastered improv techniques and funny-looking facial expressions. Aside from jokes, the plot is a relevant, clever, and spot-on satire on cable news. Burgundy finds work at the thinly veiled 24-hour news network. What do they do when they don't have 24-hours worth of news? He helms the decline of journalism and the rise of car chases and animal videos. To quote Will Ferrell, "You're welcome, America."
