Wow... That's a lot of... Gold..... I hope to God these colors can change... that's waaaaay too bright

Kind of has that 1990s Today Show wooden vibe before they moved to 1A. Hopefully this gets the competition going with some refreshes. I imagine Today show won’t do anything significant until the 2026 Olympics to 1A. Someone mentioned with MSNBC soon leaving there will be a giant studio vacancy at 30 Rock. I wonder if Today is considering leaving 1A for bigger room if the ”window to world” concept has run its course.

Is Hearst still moving forward with this supposed new look? It's been nearly a year since it debuted in Fort Myers, yet it has never been rolled out beyond WBBH/WZVN...

Because Scripps is a giant hot mess.

I don’t exactly remember the Instagram story (it’s since expired), but he had tagged somebody and if l recall correctly there was something about an announcement this weekend??? Perhaps the tagged person is his replacement on weekends?

ABC News needs MANY new things...

It'll be nice to look at different colors besides yellow and blue (along with those awful digital backgrounds/optical illusion blocks of the last couple years), and I suspect despite this shot, the show will not base its entire design color on a 1997 Compaq Presario. I do hope they keep using Ray (their mascot), and there's still a couple of corners to be seen in this design, so hopefully the presentation/interview area will look nice. At least now the weekend crew isn't stuck in the dungeon set and everything's in one building. I'm crossing my fingers the studio is named for Charlie Gibson, not only because it's so deserved, but because having to hear the announcer say 'live from Hudson Square' every day when we barely see the exterior will get generic and dull real quick.

ABC News needs some new creative directors...

a sea of brown wood and 5 million patterns. spot on for ABC. Expectations fulfilled.

They did change up the background shot.

We might actually be seeing a fairly hard reset on the show's design language. Colors can be changes, for sure, but they seem to be committing to a VERY different look. https://pagesix.com/2025/06/13/entertainment/gma-bids-farewell-to-times-square-studios-with-boozy-breakfast-at-irish-pub/

GMA debuts their new studio on Monday https://pagesix.com/2025/06/13/entertainment/gma-bids-farewell-to-times-square-studios-with-boozy-breakfast-at-irish-pub/

WSYX 1988

Yes pretty flat graphics but I give them credit for using a talent open. The “in action” shots work well.

Just saw the first promo with his image and name included alongside Shirleen, Brittany, Sam and Heather’s for 4:30-7am. These same promos did not include him earlier this week. I guess that makes it official.

People have very short attention spans. Those predisposed to dislike “mainstream” media are already not watching. To everyone else, it’s a meaningless blip in a flood of other things competing for their attention. The news cycle has already moved on a few times over from this- nobody is going to change viewing habits either way over this.

Hope it doesn’t affect ABC’s ratings I hope they can stay number 1.

No it won’t really, honestly they never really interacted with the live audience outside except for weather hits, and also presentations outside the studio. I just hope it doesn’t hit them ratings wise.

See the door behind Emily? That leads (is connected) to the main studio. I’ve been there before…

Again I don't know why these stations are updating these POS's when they are in the midst of rolling out a new package

And the interesting thing is, the ABC News channel was HD from its launch in 2010 until ABC TV HD relaunched in 2016.

Don't worry, everybody's expectations here are already low.

Not really given that that's not new technology. New to GMA?? Sure.., but not new within the industry. Anyway, we'll see how everything flows together on Monday. Only suggesting people may want to temper their expectations, if you will....

Sucks!! At the very least some positive news coming out of "waga" as Courtney Bryant called it. Russ Spencer is celebrating 30 years at the station.

A floor made out of screens isn’t innovative or modern? If that’s what it ends up being is quite unlike anything GMA has ever had or anything the other morning shows have.
