San Diego and the 1970s are a thing of the past. The 1980s and New York is here. After a nasty separation from Veronica Corningstone (Applegate) which involves her getting a promotion and him losing his job, Ron Burgundy (Ferrell) reforms his old crew of Brick Tamland (Carell), Brian Fantana (Rudd) and Champ Kind (Koechner) for a gig at a 24-hour news channel. Yes, there are laughs; and yes, a third installment would be worth making; but ultimately, ANCHORMAN 2 suffers from similar flaws as an AUSTIN POWERS sequel, where they try to go one step further than the original but end up going one step back—all with far less replay value than the predecessor.
