idk whats going on but for some reason my outdoor roof antenna (I also have Directv on the other side of the house because half the wiring in the wall that used to be Directv was cut off in my bedroom due to budget reasons) it decides to pickup not only more stations in sacramento but also Bay Area stations as well....i was getting 63 channels before now im getting 83 channels instead with KTVU being the strongest signal. did KTVU upgrade their towers? something tells us they did something over in the san francisco and san jose transmitters.

that's NBCUniversal for you.

Bethany Crouch Left KTXL for KOVR/KMAX back in October.

when i was a detroit kid i used to count on WXYZ but i was more and more tuned to WJBK because they were on the spot for breaking news and investigative stuff and WXYZ sometimes weren't as alert or at least i thought they were. i agree with the whole weather thing though really WXYZ?

In case it's not obvious, the part with the drop-down weather monitor is also virtual. Yes, CBS 2 is still using chromakey for weather but does a pretty good job of making it look like part of their studio.

KOVR did that but not with weather. they did it during news headlines.

I'm sure this is going to be similar or the same as that horrible format WPIX had in 2010. I think they are going to end as PIX with low ratings and "HOPEFULLY" removing this format.

well considering KTXL is their sister station (which KXTV is also somewhat doing) i doubt it. also interviews are even done in the news room. its even showing a GMA sign in the background. they could've at least used the sac and co studio.

Is the new name supposed to be the local version of World News Tonight ?

well they are an ABC affiliate so i doubt that's why. also yes they did open the news as "ABC 10 LNT". and more new stuff from KXTV. they now pan the camera through their news room From and to Commercials similar to KCRA and WSVN. Weather forecasts are on a small box in the corner while other stuff on the Screen they use is on the main part of the weather shown here.

KXTV rolled out a new name for news it seems.

Unfortunately, I dont see that happening since WWL has been CBS for as long as I can remember and possibly as long as the station has been around itself.

if WWL stays CBS they will need to renew their affiliation. but it wont happen anytime soon.

WWL has been losing ground over the last few years, and this move could be what puts either WDSU or WVUE ahead of them in the ratings.

 

If their CBS affiliation was ever in jeopardy, WWL would do just fine as an independent.

unless they switch with another affiliate. i could see WWL taking ABC or CW from either of the 2 Tribune stations in that market replacing their CBS.

KXTV's newsroom is now their studio until changes are being made it seems. they seem to start using the format KTXL and KCRA is using where they use sometimes the newsroom for cold opens and a different set. having the weather as a screen is like KTRK without the 3D. i could be wrong.

if the sounder they've used for the past 25 years is still being used and the fact that parts of the CBS enforcer collection is used wouldn't they use their version that they used in 1998 which sounds exactly the same with the sounder?

Didn't KTXL do something similar with studio 40? im pretty sure KXTV has done Sac & Co for the longest time.

WGN gets to do what they want now that their independent.

Apparently, WCBS has a new Mobile Weather Lab.

KOVR also has this.

It's back on youtube!

 

someone must have liked jesper kyd. lol.

Inside Edition now has an updated theme with new graphics. they only teased it in a open and in a topical promo.

All affiliates are starting to move their Logos and bugs out of the Safe zone now. the only ones left is CBS and CW. just recently ABC moved theirs to the corner. the first to do this was FOX.

Well good for Ben. I always liked him. He should do well in Bean Town. It seems like Boston is finding a liking to picking NY Talents. It almost seems like the talent that are being underutilized in their respective area.

Side note: Every time I open the WNYW thread, I hope its for them getting a new set. This thread is such a tease :D:D

you mean like WAGA or perhaps maybe WTXF? the few O&Os that still use their old set is WNYW, WJBK and WFLD.

Mark S. allen will join KXTV.

KTXL uses a Different set. Could be a new set.

KOVR is starting to use 3D studios. they look like WHDH and WSVN.

KTXL seem to have brought their Spinning 3D Bug back as well as their lower thirds. weird.

I remember back in the day in 1998 you could catch Soul Train, Kids WB, Sitcoms from the WB and WGN News at 10 EST/7PST all on WGN America when they were the superstation. WGN used to have great programming even though it was already in tandem with the local affiliate for the same programming if you didn't live in the chicago area.

KRXI seem to have removed their live feed of their station on their website. before you could actually watch shows off it but now its only up for news. i remember you could do this with WNYW.
