CATCH 5!!

[bigvoice313]

Who knew that "Catch 5" would actually be used as a morning news promo?!!!

[tvlondon]

Did WMAQ use that image campaign? I think of WEWS when I hear that.

[lazynetjunkie]

No, WMAQ never used that campaign.

Trivia - the car used in this is the same car used by Jim Carrey in "Fun with Dick and Jane."

[NewsFan2]

It is funny, but I don't think if it is appropriate to make due Randy Salerno's passing since he was featured in that promo and it was one of the promos shown in his memory, after he died.

[lazynetjunkie]

Knowing Randy, he's probably up in Heaven laughing his ass off at this. At CBS 2, he loved poking fun at the WGN Morning News team and I'm sure he'd still want his friends at WGN to continue poking fun at him.

[NewsFan2]

Yeah, true, I didn't look at it that way. Randy would have liked it.

[xxxWarriorGoddessxxx]

@NewsFan2 This was before Randy died, I can see they did this after he died, that would be in poor taste on WGN's part, but this was done in 2007.

WGN own3d CBS 2.
