  1. Agree. Take a page out of the NBC News Daily playbook.
  2. Mark returned this morning and explained his complications and recovery. Glad he is back. Frank was off and it was only fitting that one of the other KTLA Morning News OGs, Eric Spillman, was present for his return. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DH_N03jiGHM/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
  3. Today in LA- Lynette and Adrian 11am- Annabelle Sedano 3pm- Annabelle Sedano 4p/5p/6p- Colleen Williams and Michael Brownlee 7pm- Colleen Williams 11pm- Carolyn Johnson Weekend Today in LA- Michelle Valles Weekend Evenings- Kathy Vara and Jonathan Gonzales I believe they have also made some weather changes as well. I don't see Melissa Magee on at 11pm, it is now David Biggar. Carolyn will fill in on earlier shows as needed. I assume as Carolyn's health improves, she will pick up an additional show. Before her medical leave, she co-anchored at 4p and 6p.
  4. Sorry if this was already discussed. Do we know what happens with the old building? Will it be razed or repurposed for something else?
  5. The 11am hour of GDLA is called GDLA+. I would just called it Fox11News+ Primetime to keep consistency. The + distinction lets viewers know its on KCOP since the News13/my13 News branding died years ago.
  6. They never learn. I remember when the now 5pm news launched. It was originally called Studio 11 LA.
  7. The anchor lineup is incorrect. I know its been a mess lately, but there are 6pm promos featuring Michael and Colleen. Robert Kovacik is one of their top street reporters. 11a and 3p- Annabelle 4, 5, 6- Colleen/Michael 7- Colleen 11- Carolyn. She may take on another show as her health improves. She has been filling in on earlier shows this week and last as Colleen is off. Colleen is almost 70. She has anchored the 11pm since Kelly Lange stepped down from that show in the mid-late 90s. I think her getting off the 11pm is one step towards her eventual retirement.
  8. Per FTV, KTLA has hired KTTVs Melvin Robert (GDLA 6a-9a co-anchor) to replace the legendary Sam Rubin.

  10. Per her Instagram (@CarolynNBCLA) Carolyn Johnson has succesfully completed multiple rounds of chemo and returning to the anchor desk this week. The post says that she will start with the 11pm. Not sure how long the arrangement will be or if it is a slow ramp up for her to get her work stamina back as she used to anchor the 4pm and 6pm. Colleen Williams has anchored the 11pm at KNBC for nearly 30yrs. Could also be an effort to cut back Colleen's work load and start the push towards retirement.
  11. Been streaming the Wichita stations since the flight originated from there. KAKE and KWCH are providing solid coverage.
  12. She just finished a stint at KTLA as the weekend sports anchor. Glad to see her get closer to her husband. She was a solid hire at KTLA.
  13. Do we know how large scale breaking news events will be handled? Will Maurice and John both show up and lead the coverage in tandem? Will they solo anchor for a few hours then pass the torch?
  14. Once again, all LA stations are wall to wall with coverage of the Hughes Fire. The fire is burning in Castaic on the northern end of LA County, north of Valencia/Magic Mountain. So far, 5k acres burned, 19k under evac orders. Winds are a factor as well.
  15. Looks like a re-purposed weather nook.
