Meet the Characters

Before you suit up in your polyester suit or don your jazz flute, get to know the eclectic bunch that makes up the Channel 4 News Team. Each character brings a distinct flavor to the newsroom, and you might just find your spirit anchor among them.

Ron Burgundy

The man, the myth, the legend. Ron Burgundy is Channel 4's suave, mustachioed lead news anchor, played by Will Ferrell. With a head full of brilliant hair and a personality as smooth as scotch, he is "kind of a big deal." His over-the-top confidence hides a surprisingly delicate ego, and he's known for catchphrases like "Stay classy."

Veronica Corningstone

Hailing from the world of broadcast journalism, Veronica Corningstone, portrayed by Christina Applegate, is ambitious and intelligent. She's a rare combination of beauty, brains, and determination that can ruffle the feathers of the male-dominated 1970s news teams.

Brick Tamland

Oh, Brick. Portrayed by Steve Carell, he's the news team's delightfully dim-witted weatherman. His IQ may be in question, but his heart is not. You might remember him for shouting "Loud noises!" or lovingly cradling a grenade.

Brian Fantana

Channel 4's field reporter, Brian Fantana is played with a smooth-talking charm by Paul Rudd. He's a ladies' man with a scent for every occasion. Though his colognes may clear a room, he’s a key slice of the ratings-winning pie.

Champ Kind

David Koechner is Champ Kind, the sports guy with a robust love for all things competitive. His catchphrase, "Whammy!" is as famous as his cowboy hat. If you're into sports or have a penchant for yelling at TVs, you're probably in the right ballpark with Champ.
