    And WNCN has launched their 4:00 pm newscast. No more temperature, just time. The open seems to be some in-house modifications of the generic Nexstar CBS open. New VO, but I can't tell who. CBS Local remains, but now they're using the same cuts as WKYT.

    Nice info there, but to clarify, I wasn't talking about market rollout. Rather, I was talking about packages released overall. Artists can get inspiration for their new packages from anywhere in the world.
  3. TheSpeedKing
    Yikes. They could have learned from their previous look to not do L3's this way. It just doesn't look good.

    The KOIN package launched in September of 2019 whereas the WSMV "Gray" look launched in March of 2020 alongside In Sink V.6. However, the time/temp bug on the WSMV look is reused from the WFTV package, which was released way back in 2016.

    I see elements of the WAVE look in here but I can't make out any in-house graphics.

    ATSC 3.0 and Univision/Telemundo are saying hi. In the ATSC 3.0 case, WJHG would become the host, keeping the 1.0 channels on W31EP-D

    The More You Know....thanks @Adam MadMan! And bye-bye, Litton Entertainment.

    KPTV was the nation’s first commercial UHF station. They’re now returning to UHF. And on an unrelated note, WJLP’s MeTV signal has been upgraded to 720p. The Get After It trash remains.

    The sad part is that NBC pretty much doesn't like Sinclair, but if they attempt to disaffiliate from these stations a la WHDH, it might cause massive confusion. So NBC is stuck with Sinclair.

    Isn't WKYC #1 at 11pm? But anyways, WEWS is a very stable station and I wouldn't mind CBS moving there, causing WOIO to become an independent.

    This also makes me wonder about W30EY-D. Gray appears to want to relay WXIX closer to Dayton. While not a larger market, part of me wonders if Gray wants to cover the entire nation with full-power "hubs" and fill in other markets using LPs (albeit with syndication blackouts) so they don't have to worry about broadcast range. In Ohio, Gray could relay WTVG in Lima and WOIO in Columbus with LPs.

    Good. I'm hoping Weigel axes the more...questionable subchannels, as well has audio simulcasts that are just consuming bandwidth.
  13. TheSpeedKing
    Probably with some new graphics (Tegna ABC perhaps?) and replacing C Clarity with production music.
  14. TheSpeedKing
    WAVE fixed up its own in-house take on LIM4.1. They don't like Gray's "corporate graphics", a hodgepodge of garbage looks here and there, replaced frequently. New look?
  15. TheSpeedKing
    New graphics as well? 2019-2020 look refreshed for VizRT? Either way, this is shaping up to be a great rebrand.
  16. TheSpeedKing
    The WAVE logo is usually applied to flat elements only-don't be concerned about that. Also, have you seen their previous graphics? (Videos are in this thread)
  17. TheSpeedKing
    I'm not concerned about WNCN moving Y&R to the recommended time slot, but I'm more concerned about what they are replacing it in that timeslot.
  18. TheSpeedKing
    Finally! This is what I’ve been hoping for all these years. Modernity has been something WAVE pushed really hard as of late. So a “fresh” logo design was in order.
  19. TheSpeedKing
    Why? Just why?
  20. TheSpeedKing
    Yikes. One more reason to recommend that station broadcasting on Channel 17, WNCN's namesake. You know the callsign.
  21. TheSpeedKing
    Nexstar couldn't be that shortsighted. This is not Lexington, KY where you have a low-quality competitor (cough, WTVQ). In the Triangle, your competitors are some of the best stations in the entire country. There will be no way WNCN can poach viewers away unless Nexstar does something different, and launching another newscast is not the solution.
  22. TheSpeedKing
    Quick reminder: The CBS affiliate in Lima is WOHL-CD, owned by the owners of WDRB (Block Communications).
  23. TheSpeedKing
    The Rock is garbage IMO. I would've preferred NBC to sell back the O&O package to SAM for syndication rather than keeping The Rock. CBS Local *might* have been another option if they wanted to pull a WVIT and use the Enforcer logo.
  24. TheSpeedKing
    Like WOIO's? Graphics implemented during Gray ownership are considered Gray graphics in my books. Howell probably does not care where those graphics came from. So, they're going out-of-house.
  25. TheSpeedKing
    We don't know what's happening with Gray graphics at this point. The Meredith hub's fate is unknown, so before any of the ex-Quincy stations get new graphics, Gray must decide whether to shift these stations to the Meredith hub or to shut the Meredith hub down and go out-of-house (a la Page 1 of this thread).
