Encore 323

They just showed the closing credits for the 11am news and they were using the 2012 theme briefly but halfway through the credits they changed it to the WABC theme that they are using now. I thought they were going to let the old one finish out like before but I guess that's not how this works.

I was very shocked to see the new news graphics come this quick after a month or so of the weather graphics but I am disappointed that they got rid of their 2012 music package that was made for them only until KTRK started to use the midday theme. The WABC theme does not fit the Los Angeles area because SoCal is known to be more relaxed but it is market number #2 and there is always something urgent going on. I don’t know if the early morning opening theme is going to stay the same or not so we will see.

I’ve noticed lately that KTLA has been using a new font when they show current/future temperatures. It’s a possibility that they may be testing for a new graphics package in the near future but I don’t want to speculate too much.
