wow, I literally just saw him on TV, live at the Tday parade.
Fake news much?

New Years Eve still happenes after Casey Kasem died.....Al isn't as important as he thinks he is!
CloudyRomero t1_ixmyrg8 wrote
I hope he's okay.

He's not missing much TBH

Did Casey Kasem cover New Years too? Or are you thinking of Dick Clark?

Where? Cause I watched the parade, and he wasn't there.

haha oh shit! I was watching the 2021 parade from last year. Damn youtube, it said it was live.
My bad guys. I was curious why everyone was still all masked up

Al Roker needs to hang it up, take care of himself. Give someone else a chance.
NamisteHome t1_ixn8zyp wrote
Agreed. I used to be a HUGE weather nerd as a kid, and remember seeing how Al Roker looked in the 80s when he promo'd with Willard Scott. It had such an impact on me in first grade that to this day, at age 44, I am laser-focused on maintaining my blood sugar and cholesterol in order to keep any danger of adult-onset diabetes well at bay, since I am genetically predisposed to it. I am not exaggerating when I say that I can thank Al Roker for motivating me to counteract any snack attacks with push-ups or a decent walk with my dog around the neighborhood. I hope he gets better soon.

I hope he is doing well and taking care of himself. My father had diabetes and it will take a toll on the body. Al has always been some kind figure on the boob tube for me putting out the good vibes on the holidays.

You don't like lip syncing Jimmy Fallon? WTF is wrong with you, that's peak entertainment.
tist006 t1_ixnm7h9 wrote
Terribly cringey lip sync ? Amazing stuff
NullSterne t1_ixnof9m wrote
I mean… yeah, that’s good? Folks are gonna downvote you because the problem is diabetic, not COVID related, though I can’t blame you too much for assuming.
TeamMountainLion t1_ixnol2t wrote
No I just don’t like Jimmy Fallon in general
accioqueso t1_ixnpzlc wrote
So at my mom’s house she doesn’t have access to the Macy’s parade, but she had access to the Dunkin’ parade. I didn’t think lip syncing could reach such a low.
xyzzyzyzzyx t1_ixnqprt wrote
He's not a parade balloon
Orpheeus t1_ixnqryk wrote
TIL there's a Dunkin' parade. Weird it's in Philly and not Boston.

I just found out Byron Allen owns the weather channel. That’s the craziest sentence about things I don’t care about.

The entire time I expected Casey Afleck to pop out and say, “I fuckin’ love Duncin’, guy!”
MadisonPearGarden t1_ixnt7x9 wrote
Remember when he sharted in the White House
GetYourDichotomy t1_ixnugk9 wrote
I still don’t understand why people care about this stuff. Not the parade (but that too), but a Joe that has a spot on national television. Nobody cares that I missed anything when I was in the hospital. What drives people to care more about a national tv “star” more than the things happening to their own people?

It felt different without him, but I totally get it
Filmatic113 t1_ixnv0d5 wrote
What are his political views
d_e_l_u_x_e t1_ixnwnd7 wrote
Just saying he should take care of himself and put health and family first. Thanks for bringing in politics idiot.
Fryceratops t1_ixnwobx wrote
I've seen Roker in the Columbus Circle Whole Foods twice. Both times he ran over my foot and said nothing. Fuck that guy.

Serious question; If we’re running out of helium should we stop using balloons and stick to floats?

Great point.

I thought it was strange how his replacement Dylan Dryer was only there until they actually started the parade.
schwiftydude47 t1_ixox6d5 wrote
Anyone else disappointed that they just went with a generic preschool sounding instrumental when she came on instead of something from the show? Like how fitting would the Keepy Uppy cue have been?
schwiftydude47 t1_ixoxdft wrote
It’s been kind of a phenomenon here since Disney+ picked up the streaming rights. And I wouldn’t say I’m upset about it, because those dogs are ridiculously charming.
schwiftydude47 t1_ixoxk1w wrote
He was definitely missed, but all in all it was still another solid broadcast. Loved the Fraggle Rock inclusion this year.

The elephant in the room.... Covid vaccine induced clots of bizzare nature. Died suddenly is a good documentary.

Very true. It’s the kind of show both kids and parents can enjoy.

I would say that its growth is exponential. It absolutely dominates the parenting subreddits and I know more parents who know Bluey than don't.

I saw a CBS Sunday Morning feature on him a little bit ago. Said he was in the room when Berry Gordy sold Motown and how it made him feel defeated, that it was crucial to create the mini-major that his studio is now and to keep it black-owned. Cool stuff!

Blood clots huh? How’d that happen? They give any indication as to what caused it?

Can confirm, total asshole. At least he was when I knew him. Who knows though, people change, especially when dealing with health issues. I mean look at Harvey Weinstein.

Yeah. The fact that Bluey got a balloon in this parade is like a sign that her place is sealed in pop culture here.
Greedy_Switch_6991 t1_ixqj6dc wrote
Maybe fill the balloons with air and carry them with poles or a Crane?

He’s also a very personable and generous person IRL. He has a country place in our county and is out and about quite a bit. Always friendly and genuine
jarrettbrown t1_ixqn6vq wrote
It's weird because parents enjoy it too because they can relate to Bandit and Chili with all the problems they have with their kids.
ewynn2019 t1_ixqnzif wrote
That was CBS. They literally had no idea who it was and kept talki g out of their ass instead of reading their notes that were right in front of them. Idiots.

I agree with this 99.9%. Everyone seems to have forgotten that time he swiped someone's gyro on the subway in 1993.

Side affect of the Covid shot!!! Causes Blood Clots in some!
GetYourDichotomy t1_iy6g37g wrote
15 downvotes but no answer to the question. Unfortunate circumstance for Al Roker, but it doesn’t have effect on the general public. You should care that your grandma and grandpa have been spending every day without the things they love because they aren’t shown nearly the type of compassion that I’m seeing here in a nursing home.

Get well soon Al Roker!
