  1. It's a bastardized version of WOIO's Sunny Side Up, plain and simple.
  2. Thank God I got an antenna on standby to watch WKYC, not that anything on there is worth watching anymore.
  3. Tracfone flip phones for emergencies
  4. Try my grandparents. My grandpa is 73 and my grandma is 71 and they still have Dish Network. I would tell them the joys of streaming since TBN and SonLife both have apps on the Roku now, but that would confuse both of them. Hell, they still have a corded house phone on the damn wall.
  5. And then this guy shows up
  6. More like the folks at E. 30th and at Reserve Square are smiling. WKYC seems to be trying a more female-focused newscast (as evidenced by a lot of the news promos and also the colors. IIRC, the last station in Cleveland to try to be more female-focused was WOIO's "Snoozefest 19" and boy that worked well.
  7. I’m sorry but that weather bar is not great...lose it and the L3s are much better. Also, the opens are too ADHD. If they were as simple and calm as WCCO circa late 2000s, then I would forgive the graphics. Overall, decent intentions, meh execution. Again, lose the damn weather bar! Even Sinclair pulls it off better than this!
  8. Well looks like Tegna is doing a custom graphics package for WKYC. It's actually not bad, tbh. Clean and simple.
  9. Also posted in Out and About:
  10. Imma just leave this here:
  11. It helps the font choices are much better.
  12. I got some names: 5pm: "Watch Us After Ellen" 7pm: "At Least It's Leas Boring than Wheel of Fortune" 11pm: "At Least Fox 8 Isn't Here...Yet" Weekend Mornings: "Go...Back to Sleep!"
  13. If WKYC does't use this song for "GO!", I'm gonna be pissed! Hell the band is from NE Ohio for God's sake!
  14. I wouldn't be disappointed if KOIN got the standard-issue CBS graphics. However, these topicals do look worthy of a bigger market such as Portland, so kudos to Nexstar.
  15. Not that Nexstar would be bad stewards of WJW.
  16. And somehow I already see puddles of salivation coming from Dick Goddard Way, E 30th, and especially Reserve Square. This is madness. THIS. IS. TEGNA!!!!!
  17. Sinclair already did their contribution to patriotism with the flag graphics. They don’t have the extra money to do the anthem like Gray, CBS, and Nexstar are doing.
  18. Well Mexican stations (like XETV) would start the "broadcast day" (around 5am or so) by playing the National Anthem. Last I check, Mexico hasn't delved into an autocracy.
  19. I don't get it either. Consumer reporting is more for evening/late-night newscasts rather than morning newscasts. Hell, if you want to do consumer reporting in the morning, do it post-7am (which WLS can't do due do a certain GMA).
  20. Title sounds like a cross between a video game that should be M-rated and a bad top-40 single.
  21. Not like WBTV hasn't done their own graphics before:
  22. The problem that is plaguing RTVE is the same problem that plagues PBS: a lack of money from the government. Difference is that the PBS member stations can make up for it via pledge drives.
  23. Wouldn't surprise me. It's the exact playbook that ESPN used for its graphics. I would like to see someone copy the ESPN CFB look but for the NFL., however.
  24. Or call it Good Afternoon America. But seriously, I agree.
  25. The package just seems so small-market it's not funny. At least Limerick was a decent package even if it was mutilated by some stations. I pray that stations like WBTV or WVUE get something with some pizzazz like what WOIO got.
