Al Pacino. George W. Bush. John Madden. Charles Barkley. The man is an impersonation MACHINE! Frank Caliendo stops by WGN Morning News and does his shtick with some new material, including his take on Al Pacino meeting George W. Bush in a library, the Favre of July, and the Redeem Team. Does he ever turn it off? Good stuff
John Madden, Dr. Phil, Charles Barkley, Bill Walton, George Bush, Al Pacino. You name it, Frank Caliendo can impersonate it. He stopped by WGN-TV and did 'em all. Check it out.
An open-shirted, freewheeling Tracy Morgan riffs on life, who he thinks his "peeps" are in Chicago, and impersonates a pregnant woman. The actor/comedian generally cracks up the WGN morning news team of Dean Richards, Larry Potash, and Robin Baumgartner.
Jim Breuer does Joe Pesci. Jim Breuer does Robert DeNiro. Jim Breuer tells of his days on Saturday Night Live. And what's the REAL story behind Goat Boy? Good stuff.
Need we say more? Yes, this is only a five minute satellite interview between master impressionario Frank Caliendo and the good ole number 9 morning show, but you will laugh more during this five minutes than... than...well, than you did during the previous five minutes. Frank does John Madden. Frank does Charles Barkley. Frank even gives us a sneak peak at his newest impersonation.
Merri Dee: radio D.J., television reporter, voiceover artist extraordinaire, Lotto lady, community activist, victims' rights advocate, mother, grandmother, woman. WGN-TV's Pam Grimes and Micah Materre teamed up to present this loving tribune to the one, the only, Merri Dee.
6-year old Emily Bear has wowed audiences from the White House to her own house. Playing the piano since age 3, Emily also composes her own music. Has WGN-TV discovered the next Mozart?
The cast of Animal House stopped by WGN Morning News today to talk about the 30th anniversary of the movie. Karen Allen talked a bit about the new Indiana Jones movie, too.

The Bud Light real men of genius guys pay tribute to Chicago's Very Own.

Ron Jeremy has appeared in over 2000, um, films. Watch as he wows this local morning show with his various talents. Did you know he's a classically trained pianist? That his mother was in the OSS during WWII? Good stuff, funny interview.
WGN Morning News anchor Robin Baumgarten put it best..."you're LUKE PERRY!" In a bizarre interview, old 90210 star Luke Perry refused WGN's Dean Richards' questions about the new 90210, instead touting Barack Obama as "the candidate to vote for" in '08. Nice, Luke. Check out this weird exchange.
Yes, this is the Cougar (no, not THAT kind of Cougar) that was prowling around a Chicago neighborhood and was subsequently shot by Chicago Police. Ya gotta love Mayor Daley's response to critics who said the cops shouldn't have done in the big cat. Check it out.
Who knew? Danica McKellar AKA Winnie Cooper on the television hit the Wonder Years, is a published author and mathematician. She showed up on WGN Noon News the other day promoting her latest book, Kiss My Math. Just goes to show brains and beauty CAN go together.
