  1. I remember reading a Blade article 10 years ago and Gray planned to launch a 10 PM newscast not long after the start of their affiliation that would be younger and hipper. That never happened. Hopefully, the 10 PM newscast will be successful.
  2. Katie is a great TV personality, but she's never been really a hard news type anchor. She's more of a talk show host, and her style didn't cross over well into hard evening news casts. Diane may be also more of a talk show host, but she knew how to present an evening newscast well.
  3. Michael has had so many accounts terminated for a long time now. Hopefully, he'll elaborate somewhere eventually.
  4. It stinks to see Mike go. He was so great all those years at TWC, and you'd think with how many years he was there, Byron would want to keep him. He was a very hard worker and had so many great moments on the air. I know he's 68, so I'm not sure what's next with him, but it's still awful. It'd only be worse if Jim Cantore was among the layoffs, but I don't see that ever happening.
  5. If he's able to and wants to, would it really be a good idea for CBS to bring back Dan maybe for one last election night? It seems that since this was his first appearance since his ouster years ago, it seems like CBS was able to give him a second chance and the controversy is all behind them. He still seems very sharp for 92.
  6. John was always one of my favorite SC anchors and I wish him the best of luck in retirement. So many longtime ESPN personalities over the past few years it seems.
  7. Time to just bring Morning Express and Robin and be done with it, instead of trying to throw stuff at the wall to see what sticks. She was probably the most likeable person CNN had on-air. In today's divided and chaotic times, a lighter and more fun show might work in the morning. Might as well call her back if the next change fails.
  8. I kind of wonder if it'd be a good idea to rebrand the main TBN? The TBN branding has been big in Christian media for years now. It seems like Phil's channel would be better for TBN Inspire. I personally don't see Phil's channel being a big success being on cable, although I believe both TBN channels are on Pluto TV.
  9. Haven't seen much changes, but it looks like Tamron is moving to WUPW from WNWO starting Monday and WNWO is apparently running infomercials for now in the noon hour. Also, WTVG is going in-house replacing Rachel with Investigative TV+ and WTOL is adding a 4 PM newscast to replace Dr. Phil. Didn't know Court Cam was going into syndication.
  10. And another distributor is trying to partner with Amazon to bring reruns of Judy Justice to syndication, so they could be competing eventually with the original Judge Judy.
  11. Nice to see court judges come back without Byron Allen producing it. I only wished this new production company gave Mathis and Millian their new shows instead of Byron.
  12. Sounds very similar to how TWC does during LOT8'S, by listing various cities by region.
  13. Is this the first former member of Morning Express to have an on-air presence again? I know someone predicted here he'd land at FOX Weather. If so, great move on their part.
  14. I'm thinking its the Mission stations that have been blacked out since January. If every Nexstar station was dropped, NewsNation would be dropped as well. It's still apart of Dish's lineup, the last general dispute with Nexstar and Dish was in late 2020 and was resolved in a month.
  15. Is this a one-time thing or is this permanent? It's pretty cool to see the retro graphics again. Wish they'd have Allen Jackson's voice on the LOT8's again.
