Completely in character as the infamous Ron Burgundy, Ferrell, 46, read the local Bismarck happenings without so much as cracking a smile — but his fellow newsreaders could barely keep a straight face.

Well he's got another 15 minutes coming up as they are doing a sequel to that "Anchorman" movie series.
Not a huge fan of Will Ferrell but he did do a great imitation of George W. Bush on SNL. However, my favorite performance by him is the one he does on this parody website.
To: petenmi
Agreed. Nothing Ferrell has ever done has made me even chuckle.

It is a SNL cycle — Player makes a comedy or 2, thinks he/she is comedy gold, takes the same character way too far, sycophants pay anyway, player makes a string of dud (including at least one “serious” move), player become a has-been but still counts money long after they are funny or good.
America has a stupid streak in it that way.

In my opinion, the next funny thing Ferrell does will be his first.
To: petenmi
15 minutes? Will Ferrel has been around forever, he’s a well known comedian and will have his name in the annals of comedy.

I don;t like him. Didn’t used to dress up as a cheerleader or something.
Never funny.

He did the 'more cowbell' skit on SNL, surely that has to be worthy of at least a chuckle
