NBA TV as well

Channel 55 re-airing the knicks parade with an "ENCORE PRESENTATION" on the ticker itself

Is it me or is that logo a bit stretched...also they can't get their own logo? It's right there!

N4NY ended coverage around 1:35 and went to dateline, conveniently blowing off the last bit of anyone recording the channel at least on YouTube tv by saying Dateline started at 1

They muted a couple times during Brunson's speech, presumably to try and mute him swearing...they missed...twice... Also a live F-bomb got on the air during an early spectator interview

Channel 4 was commercial-free for about 2 hours but now is having breaks every 5 minutes or so it seems like Edit: they also seem to be having trouble getting to Dave Price whenever they go to him, think he mightve mentioned that before.

9 usually uses 5's logo, even when they have all of the newscasts in a day! I wish they'd do this more often

Peacock/NBCSN Extra (one of them, at least) simulcasting channel 4s coverage, obviously sans commercials. May also be off-air as we had a bit of no-audio coming out of the last comm break before sounds were cued up

I love the way the CBS stations do customizations, we need more of this at channel 2

Parade coverage seems to be either using a still shot or a live feed of the empty N4NY studio for some graphics. We also had the station referenced as "WNBC" a few minutes ago going into said shot of the studio, wondering if it was supposed to be a verbal ID (since they didn't flash up the usual WNBC NEW YORK chryon) but it was just "WNBC"

Channel 5 having issues with live reports and bitrate. Other stations having similar problems but they're very noticeable on 5

I have it recording on YouTube tv, I'll see if I can find a way to get a clean shot even if it's off my phone

Making a new graphics package and rolling it out to your stations that you own is cutting costs?

1. Why did you start each sentence with but? (I'm aware English probably isn't your first language) 2. What does the VO change have to do with GrayONE? 3. I'm sorry but that MOD-03 open is just too high-quality for the cheap podcast format, like it's so jarring to go from professional news graphics to something that was only meant to be watched on phones.

World Cup causing some odd gaps in the usually continuous 4-7 block... whoever was anchoring the 4pm hour (on 9 due to the soccer) was cut off mid-trying to tell viewers presumably to turn over to 5 by the beginning of Family Feud (9 airs 8 episodes of Feud an evening, although I believe the only new episodes come at 7/7:30) This would be fine if the game hadn't run late and delayed the start of the 5 O'clock by 8 minutes, thus giving 8 minutes for people to end up finding and sticking on other newscasts or shows. Certainly they could've started on 9, simulcast up to, say, 5:30, then 9 could've left for Feud?

Yes, which they advertised heavily immediately after the final buzzer. They could've probably went into breaking news once the first post-game ended and the main telecast was done, but remember that Inside the NBA had an interview with Jalen & Rick Brunson that most people watching probably wanted to see after the former won the MVP. You could be right about them having no choice though, as I'm sure both ESPN and Turner/WBD would've been a bit mad about losing Inside in the market of the champions. I would assume the opposite, that most people would stick with channel 7 rather than flip to another channel, especially since only channel 7 wouldve had the trophy presentation and the post-game interviews. Not to mention by that virtue they were also on the air the latest, their coverage ending around quarter to 2.

Yeah I know 2 & 4 got to react live, 5 had late news but I don't know if they hit 11:30, I DO know they also went rolling coverage, 11 might have online but OTA they I assume broke into Seinfeld (and they pre-empted the Honeymooners, something I didn't know they were capable of doing), 7 definately had coverage online although that might have started just after, they had a box cover the outside of the picture to say so which looked oddly closer to channel 5's graphics package than 7's...the coverage popped on OTA after Inside the NBA ended, close to 1 AM (oddly started with a breaking news bumper rather than the 11pm open despite the newscast being scheduled after the game) Of the two I saw, Channel 4 seemed to actually call the final play of the game, Channel 2 i think did the same to an extent but they seemed to be somewhat in disbelief. I have to check if I actually did get a DVR of Channel 5

Missing from this of course is the reaction from the anchor desk the moment the knicks won (i had been dvring the various 11pm newscasts since i wanted to have the reactions should the knicks have won (of course, they did) but didn't get the whole reaction since the DVR cut off where SNL would've started). 2 was also at the anchor desk when the buzzer sounded and they got pretty emotional there.

He sounded rough for a few years...he's also on less of the O&Os (I know he's been off WPVI)

It is a shame, but perhaps given that it wasn't certain the knicks would win tonight until the final 8 seconds...I can see why he didn't wait...that and he probably wouldn't want to upstage them if he announced it immediately after.

2, 4, 5, and 11 all have (or at least had as of midnight) special reports going in (2 4 and 5 leading out of their 11pm/late 10pm newscasts)...7 of course broadcasts the finals and thus their coverage is online-only until inside the NBA ends at which point Eyewitness News is scheduled

Fox on 6th Ave or Fox on 67th St?

Interesting thing i noticed about the new animation--they have an animation segueing into the AGT open, at least tonight--the logo zoomed in a bit as it faded into a cloud background. Don't know if it was just reversing the animation or an actual seperate animation though.

One thing i noticed is that the colors seem closer to the pre-2023 colors rather than the 2023- colors, especially the purple. The music also doesn't sound too different from the current version but it sounds filtered and I'm wondering if the intention was to give it a sound similar to the actual physical chimes (I'm reminded particularly of the 1953 chimes) The animation itself isn't that remarkable, we're back to a glass Peacock unfolding on a black background like '86 (albeit the animation is very different and i cant recall them doing this type of animation before except maybe during the Chime In era? But even that was different)...I can't tell if all these retroish ideas are purposeful, but given that the new Peacock font is a good bit similar to Futura (look at the Cs and K) I'd say this could be a purposeful, if lacking, callback

Looks nice, but also kind of looks bland and a bit cheap compared to the last 2 versions. I am wondering if they'll have a more substantial change coming up, what with Peacock having rebranded almost 40 years to the day of the 60th Anniversary special where NBC started their rebrand and the big C having changed NBC to be in line with Peacock a couple of times before (maybe the day of their 100th anniversary?), and if this is just temporary. It isn't bad if it isn't though.
