Me too. I broke into tears when Jim made the announcement last night. Jim is to Philly as Vin Scully is to Los Angeles. A national treasure.

I remember when Jim accidently said "Nightline is Next on Channel 6. Action News continues at 6am with Rob Jennings, Rick Williams, and Dave Roberts! Oops! [laughter!] I mean Monica Malpass, Rick Williams, and Dave Frankel. I'm thinking this is the weekend!"

topofthecircle, it was never an issue when Nightline came on after the 11 o'clock broadcasts, because we went from Philly news to ABC News.

Does anyone remember the silly things Jim O’Brien sometimes did for the closing music? I remember one night, he was talking about days of heavy rain coming and the danger of flooding- and when the cast ended and the camera pulled away, O’Brien was wearing hip waders under his jacket.

Haha, I remember that. That darn thing exploded above him! 6ABC did a blooper real ...wow, 20 years ago maybe...could have been for the 50th anniversary of WPVI. The bulb incident was a part of that, lot of laughing - Jim O Brien, goof-ups. One clips of this old Action News that car caught fire on City Ave. - looked like from the early 80s (no one hurt) but it was on the side of the road - directly in front of NBC10 studios, so Channel 6 caught Channel 10 employees on the lawn clapping, laughing, applauding at that fail LOL. (Love that, at least Channel 6 can laugh at themselves) Another clip of Cecily dancing, it kind of reminded me of Seinfeld when Elaine attempted to "dance" in that one classic episode - very spazzy. Channel 6 needs to post that classic compilation back online.

Did Jimmy Kimmel ever feature Jim Gardner's bloopers on his show? I suppose it'd have been funnier if Kimmel was doing his show in Philadelphia and could've had Gardner do a cameo (at the Kimmel Center no doubt).
