Mascot Monday Now Inventing New Mascots

It’s beginning to look like Good Day Philadelphia is never going to run out of mascots. When they began doing Mascot Monday, it seemed like they’d have a few weeks of mascots to dance with, then, well, they’d run out.

Touché:

Jennaphr Frederick is off today, so George Mallet and an intern take over the dancing — with two mascots who may have just been created specifically for Mascot Monday.

Our favorite character here is “Caitlin the Intern,” though, as, basically, we’re hoping she’s getting college credit for this.

This Is Kinda Our Favorite Thing Ever On ‘Good Day Philadelphia’

No BS In Today’s Mascot Monday

Seriously. Today’s Mascot Monday is all get in, get dancing, get going. No banter, only a short introduction of today’s mascot — a Rita’s Water Ice gelati, who becomes the first mascot to appear on Mascot Monday twice (according to my records). Jennaphr Frederick even talks about her weekend during the segment.

Consider this old axiom: Mascot Monday is like sex (or pizza). When it’s good, it’s really good, and when it’s bad, it’s still pretty good.

Dancing For Fire Safety

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Mascot Monday! The key line in today’s segment is from Jennaphr Frederick, who says “This is a news-oriented program, and that’s why we have Mascot Monday.”

‘Today’, ‘Good Day’ In Turf War?

Today was the second straight Monday morning without a Mascot Monday at the end of the program, and the viewers, clearly, were outraged. (I got 1500 emails by 11 a.m.)

Fear not, though! A competitor has come in to join the party! You hear that, Good Day Philadelphia? Today is inchin’ into your turf:

For Immediate Release

Phillie Phanatic to Appear on Today with Al Roker on Tuesday

The Phillie Phanatic will be making a special appearance on Today, as he greets weather reporter Al Roker, who will be broadcasting live from the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Tuesday, May 23, at 8:30 a.m.

We can only hope Roker and the Phanatic dance, dance, dance the morning away. Hopefully, the Good Day crowd will also be at the Art Museum steps, armed with water balloons.

There’s Nothing Like A Rap Video Shot In A Cemetery

There was no real Mascot Monday today, but in the interest of fairness, I’d like to point out the fire safety rap that Good Day Philadelphia showed right before the end of today’s show:

The best part by far is the namecheck of Commissioner Ayres.

Dancing With The Sharks

Ahh, yes, it’s Monday, and therefore it’s Mascot Monday. Today, the gang dances with Finley, the Camden Riversharks mascot. Be sure to watch for the part where Finley attacks Jennaphr Frederick. Enjoy!
