KNSD, then KCST 1986: What, you had to have sketches of the anchors and not real photos?

The drawings also reminds me of the old Young and the Restless opens of the early '80s.

This was WFTV old open & graphics.

This is WFTV's new open & graphics. Although EWN is still being used and the updated graphics aren't bad, but that production theme in the open is . Read the info box for more details.

On a separate note, YouTube suspended my account because an WXTV open I uploaded in August. I have a new account now, RGSJenkins88 (new main account) and RGSJenkins8 (back up account)

Speaking of bad opens, did we mention this one yet. Yuk.

Heck, even markets smaller than that have stations that look more modern.

Said already by me.

KIEM-TV in Eureka, CA is the most watched news... more like the ONLY news in the area.

What that a news open or cop show drama type of thing? I just asking. That right there IS the worst news open of all time. Nothing can bottom that.

We have the greatest news opens of all time thread, how 'bout the worst. It could the music package, talent shots, or the one thing that can ruin a news open. I got a few right here which make me laugh.

Bad music package
