Does anyone ever notice that Brian Taff and Sharrie Williams add some extra comment after they get the toss back from a reporter on the street? "Ooh, that looks like it was a scary situation". "We''ll have to keep an eye out for that." It's like they have to get the last word in and seem more involved with the story. It bugs me. Some other anchors will occasionally do it. I don't notice Rick Williams, Sarah Bloomquist, or Jim Gardner doing it. They usually just say "Thank you for that report", and move on.

I'm not liking this CBS News Now on CW Philly at 10PM. I prefer just the local news given by my local newscasters. I know it has some local news, but If I want to see that much national news, I'll watch the evening national news at 6:30PM or CNN/MSNBC.

Reporter Ryan Hughes, who worked for WFMZ in Allentown a few years back, has joined CBS 3.

If anyone watches House Hunters on HGTV, former reporter Jeff Chirico is shopping for a new house tonight at 10PM. The show will be repeated at 1AM.

It was mentioned it at the end of the 6PM show. They showed some clips of his stories over the years and his coworkers congratulating him in the newsroom. There was cake and he got a hug from Jim Gardner.

Tammie Souza was off today, so Mary Ours from KDKA Pittsburgh did the CBS3 weather this morning.

Christie Ileto has been doing her 3rd wheel/feature reports on the 4PM show from outside the building. Either she lost her key or there's more Covid precautions.

Both. 10PM and 10:30PM. I didn't see any mention on Ukee or Jessica's Twitter about it.

CW Philly is showing the CBS Evening News now (10PM) instead of the regular CW Philly local news. Same deal at CBSPhilly.com.

I saw it mentioned elsewhere, but they could possibly put Gray on the 5PM show later this year, when/if Rick Williams is given the 6PM after Jim retires.

Janelle Burrell is off this week, so Chandler co-anchored with Jim Donovan this morning. She did the traffic reports, too.

I think I saw Matt on two weekends ago, Feb 12 + 13.

I saw Jillian on the 5PM news tonight reporting out on the street.

Ali Gorman was on QVC today as a Guest Health Expert, helping to sell digital thermometers. https://twitter.com/AliGormanTV/status/1479519812472786954

Sports reporter/anchor Jeff Skversky was out on the street today today, reporting on the coronavirus vaccine, nothing related to sports.

Yes.

Lonnie Quinn from CBS NY just did the weather on the 10 PM CW Philly newscast.

Jim Gardner will be interviewed tomorrow (Sat 11/20/21) on 94.1 WIP Sports Radio by Glen Macnow and Ray Didinger. It starts at 12 noon. Here's Glen's tweet: https://twitter.com/RealGlenMacnow/status/1461724175484301319 If you can't get to a regular radio, you can listen online here: https://www.audacy.com/94wip/listen#schedule If you miss it live, it'll be available later in the day to listen as a podcast.

Former NBC10 and Comcast Sportsnet reporter/anchor Jillian Mele announced on Friday that she was leaving Fox News to return to La Salle University to pursue her MBA. https://www.inquirer.com/entertainment/tv/fox-news-jillian-mele-fox-and-friends-carley-shimkus-20211029.html

Natasha Brown has been anchoring the 4PM show solo for the last 3-4 weeks. Ukee still occasionally pops into the newscast from the newsroom.

Brian tweeted that he was asked to fill in. He didn't give any other info.

Meteorologist Matt Peterson announced that today would be his last day at CBS3. He's getting out of TV weather, but will remain in the area.

Reporter Trang Do announced that she's leaving CBS 3. https://twitter.com/TrangDoCBS3/status/1423095468284858370

Dayne Marae has been named the new weekend evening anchor. https://www.wfmz.com/news/area/lehighvalley/69-news-welcomes-new-weekend-anchor/article_f4167cc2-dbe2-11eb-aa10-23d37b014c23.html

Reporter Kimberly Davis is leaving, too. FTVLive says she's taking an anchor job in Houston.
