    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      To promote the movie, Will Ferrell appeared in character as Ron Burgundy anchoring several events, including Canadian Olympic curling trials, and a local North Dakota newscast. Ferrell was set to anchor ESPN's flagship program SportsCenter in character, but his appearance on the famed 6 PM EST of the program was canceled.
    • Goofs
      Ron is told by his doctor: "Looks as if both optic nerves are separated from their respective corneas .... No other way to put this, but you're blind". The optic nerve does not attach to the cornea, therefore a separation of the two is a normal finding and would not result in blindness. If the optic nerve separates from the retina, on the other hand, blindness ensues.
    • Quotes
      • Wes Mantooth: With the things I've done in my life, oh, I know I'm going to burn in hell. So I sure as shit ain't afraid to burn here on earth.
      • Ron Burgundy: Oh, my goodness! That's the most badass thing I've ever heard!
    • Crazy credits
      In the "Super Sized R-Rated Version", there is an additional scene after the end credits with Brian Fantana and Champ Kind in a bar trying to pickup some girls while talking dirty to them.
    • Alternate versions
      Five different cuts of the film exist, which was specially prepared for certain territories:
      • The US Theatrical Version (running for around 119 mins)
      • The UK/Australian Theatrical Version (running for around 118.5 mins)
      • The International Theatrical Version (running for around 113 mins)
      • The Extended Version (running for around 123 mins)
      • The Super-Sized Version (running for around 143 mins)
      The US Theatrical Version version does not appear on any Blu-ray releases outside of the United States. Similarly, the UK/Australian Theatrical Version is only available on Blu-ray in those two territories. Non-US and non-UK home video releases include only the International Theatrical Version, although the UK and Australia editions also include the Super-Size Version.
