  1. From Portugal: RTP2 mid-evening news opener and top story from Sunday, July 23, 2000. The station's branding seen at the beginning was designed by Novocom.
  2. If you thought this is Inside Edition, you were wrong! These were America 2's news bumpers between 1993 and 1994.
  3. Italy's RAI Uno had some very interesting openers for its program TG1 Speciale featuring Rondo Veneziano's song "Sinfonia per un Addio" 1987 version 1990 version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Upt-BUj4kw Current version (certainly looks like an After Effects template)
  4. TVN's opener of its evening newscast from March 22, 1995 (begins at 0:29) I'm posting this because the theme used in the open (a very good one) is slightly different than the traditional one, introduced in 1996, seen in the video below beginning at 3:39.
  5. Two Seven Network promos with NBC music packages: ADS7 (Adelaide) promo from 1985 with "Let's All Be There" featuring Kevin Crease, Anne Fulwood and Keith Martyn: Seven News promo from 1988, shortly after they began using "The Mission":
  6. Legendary Argentinian anchor Santo Biasatti did his final newscast on Canal 13 yesterday. He resigned after refusing to be reassigned to do special reports. Mr. Biasatti is 74 years old and worked at Canal 13 from 1990 until 2017 as anchor and reporter. This is his brief farewell message: He didn't want to cry on air, so he left the studio immediately after that message (and never came back), and his co-anchor María Laura Santillán continued the newscast alone until 9:30pm, the usual end time. He's one of the best in the business and a very good JOURNALIST! Hope he'll be back in another channel soon!
  7. Three idents from Azul Televisión in Argentina that aired from 1999 until 2001, when the channel was owned by Australia's Prime Television. These pieces were designed in the US by Pittard and Sullivan.
  8. A very interesting report from Jana Wendt (then with 60 Minutes) describing the anger of Melbourne viewers when HSV7 was bought by Fairfax in 1987 and Mal Walden was sacked. He later joined ATV10 and retired from that station in 2013.
  9. Telefe's 12PM news open from Monday, March 19, 2001, with the headlines included. The music was innovative and the graphics a little bit flashy, but I like that.
  10. Seven Network's signpost and image campaign from 1998, during the "Everyone's Home" era.
  11. I really like the BBC election theme. It should have been remixed.
  12. Nine Network's graphics for their coverage of 1999 state elections: Those graphics are very amateur and didn't fit with Nine's elegant image, despite the music is great.
  13. More Jornal do SBT, but from 1994. This is really bizarre, but the management at SBT decided that, because they couldn't beat Rede Globo's soaps, they should add these 5-minute updates to fill the schedule and wait until Globo's soaps finished. It looks that the people who watched SBT's soaps were loyal Globo viewers!
  14. Some promos from Canal 13 in Buenos Aires (1990) shortly after being bought by Clarín. At 0:07 there's the a teaser for the evening news, where you can see the opener (a very humble one): thankfully was later reformatted. This commercial break aired during an episode of Hunter.
  15. Two WCVB short promos from c.1994: the first with the late, great Dick Albert, the second is to announce the expansion of their morning newscast, which started at 5AM! It was a really unconventional time to start back then. WCVB preempted ABC World News This Morning from the very beginning (1982) and didn't air it until was moved to 4:30am, around 2001, but they always cleared ABC World News Now.
  16. [quote name='compubit'][I][B]Carolinas from September 1994[/B] I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving week! [/I] Newscast opens and other clips from the Carolinas in 1994. Please pardon the quality on some of the clips - they were often recorded off-air from my car on this trip... [MEDIA=vimeo]243589515[/MEDIA] WSPA Noon; WJZY 10pm; WCCB 10pm; WCNC 11pm; WSOC 11pm; WFMY 6pm; WGHP 6pm; WYFF Noon; WLOS Noon; WBTV 5pm; WSOC 5:30pm; WCNC 6pm; WXII 6pm; UNC-TV 6:30pm; WLOS 11pm; WIS 11pm[/QUOTE] @compubit I've two questions for you: 1- How did you record TV from a car? 2- When you traveled to the Northeast in 1994, did you visit New England?
  17. I didn't know that Paul Douglas worked at WBBM. It's surprising!
  18. Canal 13's promo of the "new" Telenoche, but not in 2015: it was 1992 when that happened for the first time. Back then, they said "we've the world's more modern cameras". That was a little bit exagerated. They really had the best team (anchors, reporters, producers, technicians, etc...), they were #1 at 8PM, and the quality of pictures made you feel you were in the 90s, but in countries like the UK, Australia and NZ, the picture was more clearer.
  19. Hi. I was listening to the WSB 1991 theme on the NMSA and I thought you could have something from that period. As I said before, everything you post here is great!
  20. A great filler used by Australia's Seven Network when they had exclusive access to CNN (1985) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXmjaW_gVFE The Alan Parsons Project song was the right choice for the footage.
  21. Kristyn Hartman was (and still is) so beautiful. She was almost unrecognizable on that excerpt.
  22. It was a 4pm newscast. Back then, KMGH aired local news at 4pm, CBS News at 5pm and syndicated programming between 5:30 and 7pm.
  23. WBZ-TV Eyewitness Sports updates anchored by Bob Lobel (from the mid-80's) They were relying heavily on computer graphics.
  24. The 7.30 Report was a newsmagazine that started during the Gulf War, but aired until September 1992, when 'BZ replaced it with Entertainment Tonight.
  25. América 2 was using what appears to be production music for its newscasts between 1992/95.
