I could waste your time with a preamble filled with Anchorman quotes, or I get right to the good stuff: Paramount has released two new trailers for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues . Both clips are chock-full of the gleeful absurdity that made the first movie such a delight, as well as a few more hints about the film’s closely guarded plot. (There’s more here than we got in trailer number 1 — including answers about what happened to Veronica and Ron’s relationship.) As our story begins, Ron ( Will Ferrell ) has, once again, been eclipsed by his smarter, more capable ladylove Veronica ( Christina Applegate ). Thankfully for him, new 24-hour global news network GNN is looking for a few good men to join its New York City ranks — providing the perfect opportunity for Ron and the old Channel 4 news team ( Paul Rudd, Dave Koechner, and Steve Carell ) to get the old band back together. There, they’ll bring a new sense of fluffy fun to a stuffy network run by no-nonsense Linda Jackson ( M

It's one thing to have to have the first new show of the fall season cancelled ( ABC's Lucky Seven ) but to have two NBC shows cancelled at the same time is interesting.
