    The weather graphics may be getting some of that yellow/orange all the time, I think it would be a nice fit!

     

    Oh that would be a nice touch to it.  I haven't been able to watch WSAZ on air since late 2019. Hopefully this year I'll be able to make it back to WV to visit.

    The website has the new bug on their "News 5 NOW" filler newscast, but the noon show still has the existing graphics.

     

    And yes, it looks like the lottery ball 5 lives on...only in white.

    Slowly coming online.

  3. WOWK's morning and noon anchor Jack Kane is set to retire at the end of May. Jack spent 19 years at WCHS before moving over to WOWK in 1999. Jack started at WTAP in Parkersburg, WV before the move to Charleston.

    I remember in November of 2003 when WSAZ updated their look.  It may have been 2005, or soon after Gray bought the station from Emmis when the KARE look was launched.

    The NBC Collection was a direct result of the SESAC purge of 2006 when many stations dropped their Arnold packages due to the rise of licensing fees....

    I wasn't sure when the refresh happened. I do remember the 2006 Arnold thing.

    About time! I wonder how much longer until WSAZ gets a new Gray graphics package.  They got a new set last year.

     

    And now that I think of it, The NBC Collection lasted nearly JUST AS LONG as Signature on WSAZ!  Signature was from 1993 to 2006 and NBC Collection was from 2006 to earlier this month.

     

    It just seemed dated since the Balls & Walls lasted a good decade on WSAZ before they refreshed the look in 2003.

    WSAZ is like if ain't broke, don't fix it. Fun fact the "3" has been in use since 1971. Big changes came in 2006 with new set, KARE11 gfx, and NBC Collection. Not hearing NBC Collection on WSAZ is really strange now.

    Signature 93-06

    NBC Collection 06 to 20.

    1- Balls and Walls 93- 2003?

    2- refresh 2003 to 2006?

    3- KARE11 gfxs 2006-2011

    4-HD launch 2011-2015

    5- current 2015 to present
