  1. Will NBC consider airing content from their movie and TV studio to fill the gap at 10PM? A few years ago, NBC had the slogan, if you hadn't seen it, it's new to you. Why not air classic shows on certain nights of the week with old shows and movies that they have? They should do this on Friday and Saturday nights. Then put more recent shows that have been off the air, put them at 10pm if needed. NBC should make all the films and TV shows that are part of their studios available on peacocktv.
  2. NBC doesn't have to put Dateline, but should consider putting other shows instead of cutting back an hour of network programming.
  3. Instead of cutting back on network programming, NBC should put more alternative programming or just put Dateline at 10pm hour.
  4. Why didn't NBC try to make a deal to put some more college basketball and football on USA network with the Big 10? They are trying to build content for Peacock, but I thought they wanted to turn USA to the destination for sports like what TNT / TBS are. I think NBC should drop Nascar and get the NBA back. They can put games on NBC, USA, and Peacock.
  5. How about putting some games on the USA Network? I thought they wanted to turn the USA network to like TNT, with a mixture of sports and entertainment.
  6. Will KTLA air news from 4am till 8pm and then from 10pm till midnight, then air taped news from midnight till 4am during the weekdays? In addition to that, add more "live" news during the weekends?
  7. Since Amber Lee went on maternity leave, is that why the station hired Mary Yoon? If that's true, once Amber comes back, what will happen to Mary?
  8. Why are stations like KTLA airing so many hours of news on in a single day? I understand that it is supposed to be cheaper than airing a regular hour or half hour TV show, but you are still paying people to sit there to read the news to viewers and have people behind the scenes editing and so forth. Plus, other stations are also airing news at similar times. How much are they stations actually saving and how much are advertisers actually paying each station, since many of the stations are showing the same thing - news at the same or similar times. Plus, with so many stations airing so many hours of news, especially in Los Angeles, how do you expect viewers to tune in if all the stations or most of the stations are airing news at the same time? At 5 and 6 pm, ch 2, 4, 5, 7, and 11 are showing news at the same time. There's basically nothing on TV to watch besides news. Ch 9 is showing funny you ask and family feud, while ch 13 is showing reruns. In my opinion, many viewers would just tune out or off and not watch at all, since many people can get their news online or later on in the evening.
  9. With the rebranding of KCOP to FOX 11 PLUS, what does it actually mean for the station? They should do something within the next couple of weeks since FOX does have the super bowl this year, and that would help jumpstart whatever they're deciding to do with KCOP.
  10. Does anyone think they will try to lure sports anchor from another station like Steve Hartman or someone else? If not, I hope they use Conan Nolan. I saw him fill in a couple of times before and he did fine.
  11. What will follow Sunday Night Football now that Fred Roggin left the station? I hope they don't bring back "the challenge" and start fresh with a new show, or just go straight to local news. Also, I hope they find a new permanent sports anchor. Does the station have any reporters that have sports background? I remember before, Andy Adler had some sports reporting background when she was at the station.
  12. Is the new slogan that both stations are using confusing? It's confusing to me. Why not just state CBS NEWS Los Angeles on CBS 2 and CBS NEWS Los Angeles on KCAL 9 as the slogan? I understand that the KCAL brand is more popular, but in my opinion, it is confusing to many viewers.
  13. Who will replace Fred Roggin? Mario Solis is working part time at the station and has other employment obligations. I think Roggin wanted to wait until the NFL season was over to announce that he will leave the station. Otherwise, I think he would have just left when the other 5 reporters and anchor left last month
  14. KNBC has a couple of new reporters. Bailey Miller and Tracey Leong join the station a couple of weeks ago.
  15. I notice that the station finally removed their bios. Has anyone heard who will, be promoted to the 5 and 6 pm newscast? I'm believe Michael Brownlee may take the 5 pm and keep the 11 am spot and Robert Kovacick will get the 4 and 6 pm spot, while Colleen Williams does solo at 11 pm while keeping the 5 and 7 pm spot.
  16. Does anyone know why the stations chose Jan 5 for the premiere? Jan 9 would be better start date since it's a new work week. It would be better for their promos, with the 9s.
  17. It's official. The station posted an article of them retiring. I hope they give a send off for them after all the years. I been watching the station since the early 90s and will miss them.
  18. News articles said there were possible additional layoffs at Nbc4. Does anyone know if any other fiull time reporters were laid off and how about freelancers?
  19. I believe Kcal starts their morning news on Dec 12. I saw the listing on zap2it.
  20. I believe Michael Brownlee or Robert Kovacik will be promoted to be anchor at 11PM with Colleen Williams. I hope Ted Chen gets promoted to being an anchor. He did a good job when he was anchoring weekend TODAY in LA editions a few years ago.
  21. Will they have a farewell news segment for the news veterans? They made such a big deal when Paul Moyer got laid off and the station was not on best of terms with him when they did that. He was at a golf course, while Colleen and Chuck were trying to give him a send off.
