  1. Is Charlie Van Dyke on the cheap now? It seems a lot of Nexstar stations are picking him up.
  2. I also heard them say "Live at 5 at 4" Dear god is that atrocious.
  3. My mistake, wrote it up in a hurry. They're getting newscasts in early 2016
  4. The Nexstar duo in Midland/Odessa got a makeover - and an HD upgrade! A new set, control room, graphics (KMID - the new WFRV package), and name. KMID is now Local 2 News (With a very KJRH-esque logo) With this upgrade, KMID jumps to the best looking (cosmetics-wise) in the market. Production of their news still has a long way to go. KPEJ's facebook reports that FOX 24 will get news in early 2016.
  5. Pulled a WVTM with that logo, and I like it. The peacock in the middle is unique. This is well overdue and welcome. I love that they're using Evolution, too.
  6. Don't you mean Andrea Bennett? [yt]_2Ed4fmA7uQ[/yt]
  7. Interesting that they're using the Circle7 without the box for the logo.
  8. They'll be using the KYW HotHaus package from the looks of it, and in their videos I hear Indie-Band News by Stephen Arnold.
  9. Looks as if they added a video wall and obviously an automation system.
  10. If WJZ can look and sound like puke, I don't know what they can do to mess up in their viewers' eyes.
  11. Watching their newscasts is dreadful.
  12. I love the open, and to me, it seems newsier in areas of the graphics (lowers, transitions). The older opens are bland and slow compared to this. The updated music is nice as well.
  13. KMID and KPEJ rebranded and relaunched their website to YourBasin.com, which is way better than their former 'PermianBasin360.com'
  14. I'd prefer they use the cut WFAA does, I think it's more authoritative. I've also never liked the voice over they use for the reason you state - It's too weak.
  15. http://mattquinncreative.com/311368/3978398/designanimation/wkyc-cleveland-station-ids http://mattquinncreative.com/311366/3975174/videoediting/wkyc-see-the-possible The graphics generally fit HotHaus' style and here's proof they've done extensive work for WKYC in the G3.0 era.
  16. KETK and KFXK now have a unified website under myeasttex.com
  17. Actually, Hothouse made them. Matt Quinn lives in Cleveland and HH does a lot of work for them.
  18. KPEJ's website 'FOXWestTexas.com' now redirects to their sister KMID's PermianBasin360.com
  19. Strive will continue to get updates as long as Hearst uses the package, and from what I hear, that's going to be for another few years.
  20. Hey, KCEN is the only station so far to actually EXPLAIN on how to format your TV for the graphics.
