  1. That'd make sense if that was Tuesday... The early 80s WOI theme was Tuesday, and I do get that San Diego sound...
  2. Never seen that. I assumed it was a CBS affiliate package when I saw WBMG with it... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phR4752T3gY It also matches the Look campaign the network had. Also, I really do think KCCI commissioned Champion. The signature matches the "The Look of a Leader", and the ID sting seems to be sung as "The Look of a Leader, TV-8".
  3. Here's another KXLY newscast from 1996, but this one uses Cue11's Total News:
  4. KSAZ promos from Ron Hoon's return to the station in 1998. He'd been at KTSP in the mid-80s then left for KPNX for over a decade...
  5. Some Rochester material from 1992: A WOKR midday tease and weather promo:
  6. With a domain name like that, it almost has to be Nexstar! Except it isn't.
  7. Ooh, that WHP/KLBK theme. It wasn't phased out until 1999. When Gannett bought KNAZ, they instituted a new logo and graphics and shipped KPNX's previous set to Flagstaff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9AviilIGZQ Ultimately, it was replaced with Power News.
  8. Some WUHF promos from 1985, using Turn To!
  9. I actually went digging for this a little over a month ago and came up with the name David Baron, who did a bunch of network branding stuff in the 90s. There was a shop Baron and Baron that did this sort of material. ——— I did make a find, though. "It's WHO We Are" is Peters! And the short-lived WKRN 1986 was written by Jeffrey Steinberg.
  10. Arizona 5 News promos and teases from 1996: What goes into making Idaho 8 News in 1996?
  11. A KTVK PM Magazine promo and station ID slide from May 1982. The "meatball" 3 is not yet in evidence, and the station logo was still the italicized inline 3 debuted in 1980.
  12. There isn't an open, but a minor correction to the NMSA is better than nothing at all from *this* market:
  13. So amazing to see that, especially the live shot pan at 7:03. That area looks nothing like that now...tons of new development, and the building with the maroon awnings could be coming down too.
  14. Compare those late 1995 teases to these from January of the same year: Here are some from early 1996:
  15. Well, that's a nice collection — even has the very rare first iteration of TVbD opens and some stuff I've never seen. You want old? Here's old: a KSEL (now KAMC, Lubbock) promotional film from 1969! The station had been on air a year at this point. And even older? KDUB (now KLBK) news and other material from the 50s and 60s! Too old? Let's stay in Texas for this cool behind-the-scenes look at a KDBC newscast from 1992...with a news music surprise!
  16. Wow, Yuma! The theme used by KSWT (at 0:14) was previously used by KTVH: There's a very brief clip of the open confirming that was the theme: What's absolutely bizarre is that Ashley Webster went from KTVH to KSWT — both stations using the same news theme! (Yes, that Ashley Webster now on FBN!)
  17. A KCBS Action News tease from 1993! Also, KAET stuff so rare I've never seen it: And more KNXV from 1997 (That Investigators logo is STILL in use): And I believe this is one of the last commercials ever run by Valley National Bank, so I'm posting it:
  18. So this video is interesting if only to note that KOAT was still using the John Christopher Burns graphics but the desk on their set had hints of the Hearst package to come...
  19. KXLY in 1987:
  20. The carpet ad two minutes in on the WCPO clip has the 80s-90s voice of KMOV... And whoever made that WRCB open was thinking TVbD! There's a 1991 KOB "News 4 New Mexico" tease toward the end here...
  21. A clean one-minute instrumental of the image song to Tuesday16/Real Radio! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=BJxBzzqkxGQ;t=59
  22. Hopefully someone will enjoy this 40th anniversary special from KSFY in 2000: But this I can get behind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=1FlNu0dWXes;t=19
  23. There actually is some information on this theme. You are not far off, but it is not Non-Stop! There is a BMI entry for KSFY under Bestor. BTW, Pinnacle Music is mentioned in the Hartford Courant, so they composed WVIT 1998: "After Channel 30 came up with the concepts, the graphics were developed by EGAD (Electronic Graphics and Design) of Dallas and the music was composed by Pinnacle Music Group of Utah, said Chris Gallagher, creative services director."
  24. And from the other end, a KSAZ 9pm news tease (and AZAM promo) from 1998: Here's the whole newscast...
  25. Mark Curtis with a mustache! If not for those two December '85 newscasts that already had We're Going Where You're Going as the close, this would have been so confusing... Speaking of We're the Team, here's another one from KSTP — and no, that's not a typo! And a few years earlier, KSTP had changed to ABC: Also, this is not a newscast, but it's just as much of a gem.
