Like the 7 o'clock shows, this is also unavailable for streaming on-demand, but it debuted today. I didn't see any of it, only finding this on Ryan's Instagram story, but there's no reason why this can't turn into a Sunday night offering, as well, since WLS is the only Chicago station not in the highlight show game. bandicam 2022-09-23 22-53-09-581_Trim.mp4

...And Erin made her return today, but her feature stories will air on Thursday, starting next week.

HEADLINE: CBS2 HAS A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH A FORMER ANCHOR Yes, you read that right. She'll be filing reports for the station, throughout the next week's ceremonies.

I only saw Monday's show, and Michael Brownlee was solo. The weekend evening meteorologist gave the forecast, but I don't know if that'll be split duties, like 11am, or if someone else was off.

Are these stations getting paid by the letter/word? 'CBS [Market] MORNINGS' (KCNC and WBBM are two that come to mind) surely gets the job done, in a more concise manner.

With those currently-microphoneless arms over the table, this is clearly gonna be something like a podcast, with a video feed. What the hell would anybody expect from a podcast set?

No, not at all. There were serious hints of the rebrand launching there, and the 9am open being different than anything else is worth a mention.

Ladies and germs, might I suggest we not do play-by-play of our local stations, checking in to say that nothing has changed? All signs, at this time, are pointing to a package launch closer to, if not during or even after November. From now on, let us know when you see something legitimately new. Otherwise, we might just have to locked up this thread, for a bit.

Are you sure this wasn't the local update during NBC News Daily?

And Chris Tye now co-anchors Sunday nights.

I've watched all 30 seasons, but won't be following it to D+. If the previous hosts hadn't been replaced, I might sign up, just for season 31. As someone who doesn't have his head under a rocked, I'd always be familiar with all but 1 or 2 cast members, every season, even if only by basic name recognition. This season's crop features 5(!) individuals who I've NEVER heard of. If my awareness is any barometer, this year's cast is a step down. Anyway...

Yeah, I'm totally taking this as Bannon giving up the 11, and having the weekenders split the week. Hell, why not recast the whole 11am as a newsroom-anchored vehicle for Brad Edwards, of Streaming with Brad fame?

I'm sure it'll be just a temporary branding. New York and Chicago are sticking with the CBS 2 (News) names for their 9am entries, and we know that won't last.

Just a polite reminder to all. Not only does not every market NEED a full fall wrap-up, what full-market changes are posted don't NEED to be novels. Short and to-the-point is everybody's friend.

Someone asked if Cuomo's left-wing CNN material is designed to balance out the Shine influence. I believe it's worse and more pathetic than that. Between Cuomo's attempted comeback story and Abrams' constant bitching about the state of (cable) news, they seem to be setting up not an "Us v. Them" political bent, but an "Us v. The World" attitude, where they think the viewer will see them as a sympathetic underdog. I can't even make fun of how lame and sad that is, because they're even sucking at playing the victim.

Sounds like Susan stays on as co-anchor. https://tvnewscheck.com/journalism/article/christina-pascucci-joins-kttv-as-weekend-evening-anchor/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

THAT'S how you do vocals in a new package...not in every cut. As for the graphics, I love everything except for that damn giant bug box, but I'm not surprised by it. The rest is stunning.

So, the first TV listings of the new fall season are out, and there are a few notable changes on the WGN schedule. Despite the show wrapping production, I'm shocked that a rerun slate of Maury isn't included in the afternoon block. Instead, Lauren Lake's Paternity Court (yikes) slots in at 2pm. The biggest surprise, though, might come at 3pm, as Friends reruns return to weekday, daylight hours for the first time in forever. Personally, that programming decision feels like a placeholder move, but what do I know?

KDKA. Is. Not. Special. Whenever a new group-wide package debuts, they'll get the same thing as everyone else, and they'll be better off, for it. Besides, while I understand the civic pride, the black and gold look they have is downright unsightly for any coverage not pertaining to the Pens, Pirates, or Steelers.

I'll go so far as to say it looks beyond bad. So many Scripps stations already look so damn bland. This new lighting just adds to the sterile, soulless vibe.

The weekend anchor team was chatting with tonight's sports anchor, and they noted that the just-concluded 10pm newscast is their final one on the KCAL set. A neglected relic of the late 2000s, they're saying it's finally getting replaced.

FOR THE RECORD... 'World News' returned to 'World News Tonight' BETWEEN permanent anchors. Sawyer retired from 'World News' on a Friday, the weekend shows maintained status quo, it had a generic 'World News Tonight' open on Labor Day Monday, and he debuted on Tuesday, with his name on the program. Anyway...

Just a polite reminder, we don't need to have a whole slew of posts documenting when Hudson's, or anyone's show is airing, anywhere. That's what the show's site is for.
