    Today's the day for WCCO! I wonder if all of the O&'s are gonna debut today?


    No. WCCO will debut today, then KCNC next Monday. Every O&O is not launching at the same time.

    The 4pm has been running since last Thursday from the State Fair (big deal up here!). Tuesday should originate from the studio.

     

    They've made clear that the temporary 4pm show they have now is not a newscast. It's an hour-long show devoted to the State Fair and nothing else. 

     

    The actual newscast launches Monday, Sept. 5. You can see in this full promo the use of TT Norms and glimpses of the prospective new graphics on their set's video walls that look nothing like the outgoing package. Also, notice how there is a lack of channel number in the title of the show.

     


    Also, if you look here, you’ll see that WCCO has no newscasts scheduled at their State Fair studios for it’s last day on Sept. 5.

    I'm just wondering who will be the first station to debut the new graphics and when?


    Likely WCCO. They’re debuting a new 4pm newscast on Monday and it looks like it’s using the prospective new graphics.

  4. Here’s what’s happening in DFW:

     

    KDFW: Sherri at 11am, and Jennifer Hudson at 1pm. 
     

    KXAS: Their post-Ellen life looks like this: Dateline at 1pm, Access Daily moves to 2pm. Kelly Clarkson remains at 3pm.
     

    WFAA: No change.

     

    KTVT: Among the O&Os who are doing the news-Drew Barrymore 9am hour. Let’s Make A Deal moves to 2pm.

     

    KTXAThe Balancing Act moves from 4am to a more reasonable timeslot at 7:30am, replacing Supreme Justice, which moves to 11:30am. Funny You Should Ask and America’s Court move up an hour to 10am and 11am, respectively. Justice moves to noon from 12:30pm. Justice for All is at 12:30pm. A block of The Neighborhood airs from 10:30-11:30pm and a block of American Housewife follows from 11:30pm-12:30am. Comics Unleashed replaces Right This Minute at 1:30am. They’re airing the second half of Drew Barrymore at 3:30am (yikes!). Another run of America’s Court at 4:30am.

     

    KDFI: Lots of changes here. Dateline is replaced with Chicago Fire at 8am and back-to-back Family Feud in the 3pm hour. At noon, The Real is replaced with back-to-back Divorce Court. Pictionary airs at 2pm. 25 Words or Less moves up a half-hour to 5pm from 5:30pm. Modern Family moves to 5:30 from 7pm. 7pm is a repeat of KDFW’s 5pm and 5:30 news, and 8pm is a repeat of their 6pm news. A block of Law & Order: SVU airs from 10pm-midnight. Repeats of Nick Cannon are still airing at midnight for some reason.

     

    KDAF: We the People with Gloria Allred replaces Daily Mail TV at 11:30am. Karamo airs at noon (no word yet on where Tamron’s going).

    Is anyone else sad that the old graphics are now gone. It is also fitting that the the final time these graphics are shown. Major Garrett is anchoring instead of Norah. Speaks to the true downfall of the CBS Evening News for the last several years.

     

    Main anchors not showing up for the final newscast of a graphics package being part of the downfall of a long-running network evening news program is certainly a new one.
