Pennsylvania Station's Wethercast is Highjacked
/TV stations love to tell you how important the weather forecast is and they pay millions for equipment and promos saying their weather is the best.
Yet, stations will let actors, comedians and even animals do the forecast.
Fox 43 in Lancaster, PA had on Bronson Pinchot, who played Balki on the show 'Perfect Strangers.'
Balki is 53 years old now and looks nothing like he used to and from what we saw on Fox 43, he's still not funny either.
FOX 43 weather anchor Jeff Jumper was just trying to inform viewers of the Easter weekend weather when Balki Bartokomous himself decided to go over to him and ask about his "grown-up haircut."
It only went downhill from there, as you can watch in the video above.
The 53-year-old actor -- whose last TV role was Disney Channel's "Shake It Up!" -- called Harrisburg, PA's water polluted and then pointed to one structure and said, "There's a woman in this buliding. She's on a little squeaky bed and she's got her underwear around her neck. I don't know why."
Pinchot continued to ask Jumper, "How do you know where to point?" and then commented on anchor Courtney Laydon's ensemble. "What are you doing with that dress? It doesn't seem to move ... Is there a zipper item or something? How does this all hold together?"
By the time he asked, "We're not really on TV, are we?" Laydon was telling producers to turn off Pinchot's microphone and leading him off camera by the hand.
"I don't even know anymore," Jumper said as he tried to continue with the weather report. "I have no idea what happened."
Here's what happened... you let this idiot take over and ruin your credibility in the matter of a few minutes.
