  1. The current KWTV facilities will not be torn down. In fact Griffin Media is donating EVERYTHING in the current building to Langston University with Langston set to move it's Journalism Program to the Kelley Ave Studios in January

  2. Hoda & Jenna's show can go as well. As others have been mentioning, my concern with the elimination of the 10/9c hour (which I support) is the dissolution of show blocks like Dick Wolf's dramas. A negative is that the successful One Chicago Wednesday and Law and Order Thursday blocks would be split up. A positive is that strong shows would be spread out over several nights rather than just two watchable nights on NBC. Plausible split compromise: (NBC) Tue: Chicago Med and Law & Order Wed: Chicago Fire and Law & Order: SVU Thu: Chicago PD and Law & Order: Organized Crime CBS (if it cut 10 pm; placed in ways that don't compete with Wolf's NBC dramas). Sunday: FBI & (whatever else, East NY perhaps) Mon: FBI International & FBI Most Wanted

  5. Neville Miller is moving to weekdays at KMBC-TV. Opinion only, but a Busby retirement is probably close.

  8. I don’t foresee NBC going “halfway” and cutting sone nights but not all. Do you know how confusing they would be to the viewer? It’s all or nothing.

  9. If NBC really wants to cut an hour, do we really need FOUR hours of Today? Yes, it's news and in the morning, but i'm sure the affiliates wouldn't mind getting an hour or two back in the AM. Maybe ditch the 9am hour and make Hoda & Jenna it's own show. Megyn Kelly should have spelled the end of that timeslot.

  10. We're probably getting off topic here, but I've been waiting for the contracting of linear cable television and the shedding of channels that aren't being watched, particularly among the multiplexers (HBO, Showtime, MTV, Nickelodeon, etc.) that have multiple flavors of themselves. I mean, do we really need several versions of MTV when there's often not enough new content to justify more than two?

  11. As a 90s kid - and more specifically a 90s Nickelodeon kid - this is definitely lazy. Though the week after with iCarly and America's Funniest Home Videos seems somewhat better. But if Paramount is just going to go waste on TeenNick, might as well do what NBC just did and free up the linear space for something more useful. Also, look at the TV listings for Nicktoons - almost nothing but SpongeBob. The Nicktoons creative crew has fallen a long way from the days of Doug Funnie and a bunch of "dumb babies"...which may very well accurately describe Viacom's Paramount's cable management. Just like MTV2 is nothing more than "all Snooki, all Farrah Abraham, all the time" now. So much for the secondhand communications facility in Hauppauge that HBO handed down to them when HBO moved to Atlanta...

  12. From my comment-conversations with the YT uploaders of those "sizzle reels", it seems it's pretty much that "I got this from a guy who got it from a guy who says another guy leaked it to him..." In other words, take it for what it's worth. Actually, when you think about it, while those of us who follow this are tired of the 2016 O&O graphics and have been hearing about an update so long... what might we expect in the way of an overhaul? ...the current look isn't necessarily dinosaur tracks; the L3s and most everything else are in the same default TT Norms Pro with the CBS soft blue; some of the over-the-shoulders and sidebars and weather graphics have been spruced up a bit; the streaming versions of the newscasts have all the latest CBS touches ; the stations seem to have a lot of latitude with promos and branding, back and forth with channel number and CBS News identity. And for other Los Angeles-station viewers, I believe KABC's graphics date to October 2015 and KTLA's are exactly six years old, though a new set in the making could bring a new look.
