Reason #7 To Love Philadelphia: Dann Cuellar

In some other dimension, Dann Cuellar’s job is to sit in a recording studio and say things like “Meanwhile, back at the hideout.” Fortunately for us, we live in this dimension, where Cuellar’s job is to go out on the street and cover stories. (Hopefully, one day he’ll cover something about a crime hideout, too, and then he’ll be the new announcer for a new Untouchables series.)

Cuellar’s big story each year is, apparently, to cover the Thanksgiving Day Parade. Rather, he does a preview of the 6 ABC-sponsored parade each November. And according to an Action News executive producer, Cuellar and photographer Yuri [x] “start brainstorming about their parade preview months in advance and they spend many weeks putting it together.”

Why do this extensive preview on the parade every year? (Well, besides the fact 6 ABC sponsors it.) Why not spend almost seven minutes — perhaps the longest Action News report ever — on investigating crime, or a report on the city’s hippest bloggers?

I think the video speaks for itself.

God bless you, Dann Cuellar. We are all now totally into the Christmas spirit.

    the guy is a putz. i just can’t believe that this is news or even worthy of coverage. unfortunately, he is only doing his job, of which he actually recieves an income for this crap. remember this, someone probably found the information valuable, its’ unreal.
