New WFAA Spot

There's a lot you need to know before watching this next promo. This is from WFAA in Dallas - one of the best in the country.

It features weatherman Pete Delkis and sportscaster Dale Hansen. Each night during the news - these two like to give each other grief. They're known for it. And Hansen is WELL known for his larger than life personality. People in Dallas seem to eat it up. So that's setup #1.

Setup #2: This is based on(apparently because I've never seen the show) the closing of Boston Legal.

Now... watch and we can discuss:



First off, cigars and booze in a news promo? Its Dallas - so maybe we can let that slide.

Second, basing a promo off a show thats been on the air for years? Odd.

Third - talk of sleepovers and madcow disease? Hmmm.

Different - that's for sure. It does play off their personalities... which is interesting. But I'm not sure. What do you all think?
