And isn't Terrence Lee still with Roseanne from 4 to 6? I know he's also Sylvia's sidekick at 9. I know they pretty much established that Blanton would be on weekdays, but that weekend GDC had not had a declared anchor since Sally Schulze moved to 4pm. Maybe someone gets moved there, or did Elizabeth Matthews get formally announced, and I just missed it? She's been filling that role for like 2 years.

Her bio remains on WBBM's website, but she isn't featured in promos.

With all due respect, you posted not much more than an Instagram link, saying that something was coming. No details or time slot from you or Anderson, just a semi-cryptic "hey, we're working on something" from the host.

From various reports, the Nexstar #2 and #3 stations, plus the latter's adjoining cable network, haven't been the strictest with local protocols, so I'm not surprised that PIX11 is the first in New York to make this move.

Nah, Linda Church.

The WGN B-team has only truly solidified itself in the last 5 years, with Larry, Robin, and company still appearing in the 5 o'clock hour within the last decade, until the 9am hour launched (2013?). The early team has seen 5 different anchors, two meteorologists, and a few traffic anchors, until they finally settled into the current line-up. Until the current team found their footing, they weren't very competitive, but having the A-team on from 6am gave the station an easy win in the hour. Why kick the other stations' butts at 7, when you can also do it at 6? That said, the B-team is now #1, too, but the 6 o'clock switch is well-engrained. No need to change it.

It's not exactly a industry-shaking hire, and it wasn't mentioned on the forum. It flew under my (and apparently others') radar, so I posted it. No offense, but why didn't you, if you knew?

I know the Fox O&O syndicated slate is in bad shape, with up to 3 hours not returning for next fall, but what the what WHAT?

After Chicago's Best got canceled, co-host Marley Kayden left the building. Now she's back in the building...upstairs. https://www.instagram.com/p/CZIPi-RvnOz/

Not to be rude, but it would be nice if users could crop screenshots before posting here, if not just posting the direct link, if it's from a public account.

Don't confuse "network" with "national." Yes, she's filled in at ABC News, but so have many from the O&O's. And yes, anything can happen, down the line. BUT...Kelly & Ryan is a WABC production, with a national audience. Whoever is on morning duty at channel 7 can pop up on Live. If Sam was there, it would've been him. He was a fixture on the program in the Regis days, too.

A little less than 2 years, from 1996-98, though the weekend show might've used it a bit longer than Jennings' weekday program.

Did it say permanent, or just for weather? I doubt it would be for good, if it's a Friday, and not a Monday.

There goes our chance to turn it into a store for bootleg news stuff, with dollar store-quality circle 7 pins and still-fat Skilling plushies.

How do the drivers have visible muscle definition over their suits? Yeah, these Fox packages are comical, all right. Comically bad.

So, with ABC expanding and enhancing the O&O's streaming utilities and offerings, WLS has debuted slower-paced, relaxed, and conversational newscasts at 7am and 7pm. Talent assignments haven't been announced for either hour, but Terrell and Tanja remain together til 7:30am, when Val Warner joins one of them (whoever is anchoring the GMA updates, that day). Tracy and Roz are around, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGimVvDXQGc Meanwhile, Rob and Cheryl anchored at 7pm for the first 2 nights, while both were off on Friday, when Ravi and Judy sat in. As I said, the show is pretty laid back, which is a nice change of pace, but the real highlight is the open. Never mind that they screwed around with the pitch of Bill Ratner's voiceover, BUT CHECK OUT THE THEME. I have almost zero reason to believe the old theme is making a comeback, but someone over there had to put in the effort to dig this out of storage, so who knows? Please note that each video is set to either private or unlisted, and will remain that way until the station formally announces their existence. It's certainly not a national secret or something, but I'd rather both videos stay among this community, for now. I'd appreciate it.

WCSC only debuted their current logo in 2019. Not brand new, but unlike WAVE, they're not dealing with a 20 year old relic. A special logo for the anniversary, sure, but I highly doubt there'd be something totally new (old).

With all due respect... So? And?

Good. They certainly shouldn't celebrate him, but acting like he never existed would be a way for the network to absolve itself of enabling him for as long as did. You enjoyed being #1 with him, but you have to live with the warts, too.

Umm, read above. It's Rick.

Please refer to the link in the first post of this thread, that clearly states he's giving up the 11, first.

Maybe, just maybe, we shouldn't be taking the word of the guy that doesn't appear to have anything to do with 6abc, and who is trying to walk back his unfounded statement. Just a thought.

That's how it is for everyone else. No one said the blue or red was constant.

It's all over the news in the Bay Area. It's Frank Somerville. Sucks for him, but no need to withhold his name. If he didn't want to make the headlines, he shouldn't have gotten behind the wheel while intoxicated. I hope he gets help. www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/bay-area-tv-anchor-frank-somerville-arrested-on-suspicion-of-dui/
