Well it looks like KYW wins...and I thought KPIX had a crappy refresh with their remodel. their shots are so tight, you never see the new desk and they never mentioned the new look.

So, a refresh on top of a refresh on top of a refresh. KYW is never getting rid of that set they've been on since moving to 1555 Hamilton. Are they?

Out my way, we used to have Northwest Backroads with Grant Goodeve, ex-'Eight is Enough'. KING-TV produced it for many years and it also ran on KGW, KREM and NWCN. Well produced, just like their weeknight counterpart, Evening Magazine. They stopped airing new episodes about 8 years ago and I don't think it repeats on any of the NW TEGNA stations anymore. More goodies, ex-YouTube. KCOP Los Angeles signs off for literally 15 minutes after a very late movie and comes back on again. Two parts, sign-off then sign-on with part of 'In Studio,' a public affairs program. Taped around Nov 1988. https://archive.org/details/capture-a-320 https://archive.org/details/capture-a-321 Ads from USA's old Cartoon Express block, taped 8/27/92 https://archive.org/details/capture-a-336 Promos from the defunct Action Pay Per View network, taped in December 1990 (before 'Total Recall'). This was just one of several PPV networks available back in the day. Request and Viewer's Choice were a couple others. https://archive.org/details/capture-a-290 Of course, a lot more than that has been uploaded, but these are just the highlights.

Yes, KIMA aired all of those shows on Sunday nights that year. CBS stopped their Sunday night news in August or September of '97, and until March of 2000 did not run weekend news, so they continued to air syndicated programming after primetime.

I remember seeing that KIMA sign off on YouTube years ago. That sign off ran after Headline News, FX The Series and Team Knight Rider.

WAVY... I have a gazillion TNT clips to re-upload on Internet Archive (after YouTube destroyed all of my channels). I often find TNT recordings at estate sales, of old movies from the 1940s-60s. I have TNT content going back to their first week on the air, a rebroadcast of Gone with the Wind (not the original broadcast from launch night). I will share some Internet Archive 're-uploads' with y'all in this thread...ones that would be rather interesting. Classic WOFL Orlando breaks from 1984, including a promo with Jim Varney playing Ernest P. Worrell...hey Vern! https://archive.org/details/wofl-35-commercials-september-1984-a Commercials from a Hong Kong Phooey and Godzilla aircheck off WRC-4 on January 17th, 1981. Looks like a multi-generation recording. The oldest Saturday morning stuff I've ever found. (When I still had YT, I got a thank you note from someone who had been looking for that Time Out segment because he was one of the kids that was filmed!) - https://archive.org/details/wrc-nbc-commercials-1-17-1981-sat-morning ABC's Eye on Hollywood from August 13th, 1984, a short-lived entertainment newsmagazine airing after Nightline. Feature segment is on KDOC's Hot Seat with Wally George. Taped off KAPP Yakima w/ ads. - https://archive.org/details/capture-a-36 https://archive.org/details/capture-a-37 My local KIMA 29 Yakima signing off the air at 12:15AM on Oct 28th, 1991. Longtime weatherman Stu Seibel (now retired) announces - https://archive.org/details/capture-a-55 KPRC's Ron Stone hosting two episodes of The Eyes of Texas, a short-lived Texas travel magazine. First from late 1987 (partial), second from 1/2/1988. w/ ads - https://archive.org/details/capture-a-114 https://archive.org/details/capture-a-121 Lots more to come as I slowly move my collection over.

NBC Technical Difficulties at the Orange Bowl (January 1992). I don't know if this has been shared here before.

Local commercial aired in KXGN, Glendive, MT during Super Bowl LV:

Two of the late, great broadcast giants. Larry King on The Late Late Show w/Tom Snyder... RIP Larry King and Tom Snyder... and Godspeed.

Wow! Big news out of the Triangle. WTVD has announced two departures. Evening anchor Tisha Powell and Chief Meteorologist Chris Hohmann are both leaving the station within the next couple of months. Hohmann will leave on May 28 after nearly 30 years at the station. While Powell will depart on June 30 after 17 years.
