  1. Is this a new permanent backdrop? I don't recall what they used for the 11pm broadcast, but it looked like they may have used the new skyline of Lower Manhattan it for the morning show as well. I wish they used a live video feed though of different areas of the city kinda like what KABC and KGO does in the west, would be a bit better. :)

    They seem to use the Midtown Manhattan skyline for 11pm. I'd like to see live action shots of the city too. I thought i was the only one who wanted to see Channel 7 do that lol

  2. Oh woooooow I remember ALL of those ads from 1993. NY1 was so revolutionary at that time being brand new and it was fun seeing it grow. This is the NY1 that I miss.

  3. Good and bad news for NY1.

     

    Good: Pat Kiernan celebrated 20 years as morning anchor today by handing out free breakfast to people and mentioned that Mornings on 1 will debut on October 23rd. And Optimum has finally starting broadcasting NY1 in HD (NY1 Noticias is still in SD).

    Bad: Sports on 1: The Last Word, a late night call-in sports show has been cancelled after 25 years yesterday, as FTV Live reported earlier this month that the entire sports department will be shut down.

    I don't post much on here but ever since Charter Communication took over, they've done an incredible job trying to destroy NY1. Them getting rid of The Call, firing all those reporters and now getting rid of the ENTIRE Sports Department? This is disgusting and I wonder how much longer this station will even be around. Just pitiful smh

    At 11 they want to get right to the news, not take the extra time to run a talent open.

     

     

     

    There is a talent open, you can find it on YouTube. But like BehindNYNews wrote, they seem to want to get straight to news at 11.

     

    I see where they are coming from but I wish they didn't do that. It's a great opening but what can you do. Thank for the info.
  5. I gotta ask, why isn't there a talent open ( I think that's what you call it) for Eyewitness News at 11 while all the other EWNewscasts have all the anchors in the opening of all the other newscasts? I think that is just so odd to me and I really want to see that every night but that's me,

  6. Today is a big day for NY1 because today is NY1's 20th Anniversary. September 8th, 1992 was NY1's first day on the air. I remember how big a deal it was when it was coming on and in 1993 I was finally able to watch it cause my mom and I moved to Manhattan and I instantly loved it and it has remained one of my favorite networks. I'm looking forward to the next 20 years of NY1. I just wish TWC would let the station be on all cable systems but it is what it is.

     

    Happy Birthday NY1!

  7. Sports on 1 has a new look and theme tonight. New York Tonight also recieved a graphics and theme refresh. Me thinks there's a complete rebrand on the horizon.

    Well it's about time. They've been using the same graphics on NY1 for about 10 years now. They are WAY overdue for a new everything IMO.
