    Promo for the morning show already had Mike edited out. Only has Shirleen, Brittany, Sam and Heather. No shots of them together. I assume we’ll see new promos anyway for all shows being that all of them show the old studio.

     

    I also wonder how much longer Sam will be around, he was very vocal on Instagram and Facebook live the first few days of the “move” and how he no longer lives in NYC (most of the time) and this doubled his commute time. 
     

    Also.. I’m thinking Mike will appear on the morning show Monday to give an official “goodbye” to that team and the viewers at that time? Do we know for certain that Pedro will take over? Or is there a chance it will go to someone else? 

    People are assuming it will be Pedro based on him doing Friday mornings, while Mike does Friday evenings, however Pedro wasn’t part of the new promo (that has Mike edited out) so either they are still looking for who will replace Mike on weekday mornings, or who will replace Pedro on weekend mornings (if Pedro moves to weekday mornings) before making an official announcement.

    WCBS sure isn't acting like that.  Perhaps viewer feedback was not as positive as they hoped in his test broadcasts.  One would think that with many months since DuBois move was announced, they would have a plan that seamlessly puts in place the new team.  

    I don’t think he was hired as Maurice’s replacement. He was likely hired as general assignment reporter/fill-in anchor. If he was hired as Maurice’s replacement he already would’ve been sitting next to Kristine, plus none of his socials or CBS bio reflect that.

    Allen Devlin is joining WCBS as an anchor and reporter. He was most recently an anchor at WANF (Atlanta News First).

     

    It will be interesting to see which newscast(s) he anchors. I speculate that he could take Maurice’s spot at 5:00pm when Maurice moves to The CBS Evening News after the election. 

    If Maurice is staying at WCBS and co-anchoring CBS evening news I’d imagine he’d drop the 6 pm shows and continue to co-anchor the 5 & 11 pm shows, with Allen taking over the 6 pm show.

    Interesting. So I’ll assume anyway it’ll be Airinee and him at 4 and 5 then Shirley and Kori at 6 and 10?

    That’s my guess as well. Hopefully he lasts longer than he did at WFOR.

    Did anyone watch the streaming to see if they ran it? I didn't see any mention of it when they signed off just before 7am. They did start at 4:30, but made no mention of the later start time. And amusingly, WABC started their news at 4am on Tuesday because of the weather.

    I wasn’t able to catch it. Surprised they didn’t add “Today in New York @7am continues on our streaming platforms” after the “That’s what’s happening Today in New York” close.

    When that day comes, a Joe & Sandra team would fit perfectly on the weekday. But what about Sade?

     

    Noon David & Liz

    4 David & Sade

    5 Liz & Sade (dual female like when Diana was there)

    6/11 Joe & Sandra

     

    They absolutely will not pull Sade from the 11 pm unless she wants to stop doing the 11 pm, and I don’t see that happening for several years.

    So I guess it varies by station.

    For years all 3 aired an hour long 5 pm show, then national news at 6 and then 30 minutes of local 630-7. KING is the only one to retain that schedule.

    Nah, I think the primary "West Coast edition" feed of the national shows is still at 5:30pm PT. For a long time, only the LA market aired the national shows in the East Coast-style 6:30pm timeslot, but it's kindof all over the place now. However, if you look around markets out West, the hour-long 6:00pm show (with national news at 5:30) is still pretty commonplace.

    Probably Fred since it's already been established he was hired as an evening anchor.

    Fred will co-anchor at 6, 7 & 11 pm. No word on who will co-anchor at 5 pm.

    So it’ll be Tony & Jumi in AM, Leon & Eun at 4&6, and Jim & Shawn at 5&11? Surprised they don’t just rotate anchors for the 11am and keep Erika on weekends. 

    Jummy & Melissa Mollett 4-5a

    Jummy & Tony 5-7a

    Erika 11a

    Eun & Leon 4p

    Shawn & Leon 5p

    Eun & Jim 6p

    Shawn & Jim 11p
