April Fools???? -- matt

WGAL has been an NBC affiliate since it's inception. Them not being NBC would be insane. Matt

At first, I was not impressed with the new set, I thought it was smaller and more cramped than the previous set. I'm glad tho that 6abc made this video and proved me wrong on my thoughts. It is bigger than the old studio and indeed it is much better than the previous. -- matt

I don't think so. WGAL uses that same radar, which is located on the Millersville Univ. campus. WGAL still on occasion airs their Live Local 8 radar promo (brand that replaced Live Super Doppler 8 Radar Network) from time to time. -- Matt

I miss those gfx WNBC-TV had at that time. Very ahead of it's time.-- matt

WGAL uses a mix of both. Some opens are the new ... some are the old. Also, no other Hearst station I know did such a long close like that. More stations should do that. What would've been better was the KABC-TV Eyewitness Theme as that closing music -- Matt

WGAL also has a Hall of Fame as well!! -- Matt

What a great video. The finished product sounds very good and polished even 28 years later. I would say keep the new long theme for the end of the newscasts. It's not that bad Philly. I know change is hard. But it's 2024. You have a new set coming soon. It's okay to change, just a little. -- Matt

One word: Sexy. -- Matt

Haha. That's my all-time fav Seinfeld ep!! "Scandals and animals!!" ... LMAO -- Matt

I'm sorry but I want to comment about NBC in general ... It's very underwhelming, compared to the previous Olympic sets. I hate to say this cuz I know NBC is America's Olympic Network but I am starting to hope that CBS or ABC should get a crack at it when the time comes. NBC just doesn't care about the elegance of the Games. The set should be over the top, the Olympic theme should play ... in it's entirety every night at the beginning of the evening broadcasts, preferably more times during the day ... uninterrupted ... and I'm sorry, I know that they want Gen X and Z to be interested, but having all these celebs as correspondents ... I just can't. Jim McKay would NEVER have put up with that. Is the graphics nice? Sure. But everything else? Very underwhelming. if NBC wants to do some soul searching how to do this ... see the CBC for inspiration. Sorry for the rant, just how I feel. - - Matt

Fully agree. Now, I did see that they have a total of 6 new sets with this new building. I think this news studio has WAY TOO MUCH open space and just seems void of character. -- Matt

The same company that made the great TODAY's TMJ 4 graphics .... Renderon. https://www.renderon.com/wtmj -- Matt

Best implementation of the package: WPVI-TV - Philadelphia. Biggest disappointment of the package: KABC-TV moving to the WABC-TV music package. Overall, it's a very nice and clean package. -- Matt

I mean, he is 92 years old. He still is quick as a whip with his wit and understanding and I think it was a good segment. They had to honor Dan Rather in some capacity. They say that time heals all wounds. Good on CBS News and Sunday Morning doing this. And he still wants to be a journalist. Dan Rather has quite a history and I applaud him still doing what he does. -- Matt

What water damage could there be ... that's a relatively new skyscraper in Center City. -- Matt

Can't help but to think of the Maury Show when seeing the WMLW logo. - Matt

WHP-TV CBS 21 here in Harrisburg (not to any surprise) kept the old ticker, for now. -- Matt

I would say they have most of the graphics ready for it ... except for the open. I really believe they are having trouble matching the style of the collage-style open to the Action News theme. to the graphic look. I still think they will keep the Action News open but will adopt the rest of the package. Some things, you cannot change. -- Matt

Much needed upgrade from that other graphics package. A major upgrade. Well done! -- Matt

Much, much better WAFF. -- Matt

It's something to work and bulid on. It's not bad. It's not great either. -- Matt

I love the new look. While it is basic ... it's minimalistic and nice. Not bad at all. -- Matt

A 100+ Market weather branding for a Top 5 TV market. Odd. -- Matt
