Action Newsroom 1303 Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 NBC News today announced the name of its new primetime newsmagazine to be anchored by Nightly News anchor Brian Williams. The newsmag will be titled Rock Center and will feature a wide range exclusive reports from fellow NBC News correspondents including Harry Smith (formerly of CBS), Kate Snow (previously with ABC) and Meredith Viera (who, as we all know, recently left Today.) among others. It will also have contributions from MSNBC, CNBC and, of course, NBC News. Rock Center will be executive produced by Rome Hartman (formerly executive producer of the CBS Evening News) . As of right now, it is unknown where in 30 Rock Rock Center the news-mag will be produced or when it premiere (because the Peacock is full of new potential shows), but I'll let you know as soon as I get the deets (or if you get them for me.) Here is the video for the new news-mag: http://www.mediabist...4489#more-84489
DMA 135 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 That's such an awful name. I have never heard ANYBODY call 30 Rock "Rock Plaza". Obviously they can't call it 30 Rock, but that's a far better name.
d247 43 Posted September 13, 2011 Posted September 13, 2011 Rock Center is the name of the restaurant inside 30 Rock. http://www.rockefell...ck-center-cafe/ Unless that is going to be the setting for the show, I'm not sure why they named it that other than that 30 Rock has already been taken.
Action Newsroom 1303 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Posted September 14, 2011 The show will broadcast from Studio 3B. I saw the unfinished set for Rock Center. Thank you someone who got the deets for me. What does it look like, pray tell?
Action Newsroom 1303 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Posted September 14, 2011 As of right now, I will move this topic to The National; General TV is saved for locals and everything local. Can someone tell me how to do that?
Geoffrey 873 Posted September 14, 2011 Posted September 14, 2011 Meredith Vieira will be a special correspondent. In the late 80s, she was on another news magazine named for its location: West 57th.
Action Newsroom 1303 Posted September 21, 2011 Author Posted September 21, 2011 The show will broadcast from Studio 3B. I saw the unfinished set for Rock Center. Speaking of Studio 3B, NewscastStudio released a publicity pic of the set and BriWi recently.

Here's the link: http://www.newscasts...ock-center-set/ That looks like the same one from TV Guide! I guess citing sources isn't "hip" anymore.
AndrewPollard_ 6 Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Recently, NBC News gave us a peek of the set of its news newsmagazine Rock Center with Brian Williams.

panewswatcher69 29 Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 When is NBC Nightly News planning to start broadcasting from 3B?
24994J 5630 Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 http://www.newscaststudio.com/blog/2011/10/05/williams-wants-pasta-bar-on-new-set/ Let the promo(s) begin...I'll definitely say it's not what I'd expect for a newsmag! Funny, though.
abric 181 Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 the NBC Nightly News will start broadcasting from 3B, the same night Rock Center premieres which will be October 31st. Just guessing.
Action Newsroom 1303 Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 Why do you type so annoyingly? So that people fully understand my posts, Thank you very much.
brb588 114 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 So that people fully understand my posts, Thank you very much. Nah, you're just pretty annoying.
KRAP-TV 146 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Why do you type so annoyingly? So that people fully understand my posts, Thank you very much. Better question: do you have a twin? Or do you have 2 accounts... and why?
MorningNews 1506 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Better question: do you have a twin? Or do you have 2 accounts... and why? I'd like to know that also. And your typing is extremely annoying.
Jess 1116 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 You know, had NBC did its "Comedy at 10" thing with Brian Williams instead of Jay Leno, it'd still be on the air. This man would probably be made for the late night talk show.
MorningNews 1506 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 How much hope does nbc have in this show? It'll being airing against two established series Castle and Hawaii 5-0. Hawaii 5-0 has the cbs comedy lead in, Castle has the Dancing With Stars lead in. BriWill will have The Sing Off which has rated very low. I'm very curious to see how it'll rate.

Their hope is that it will cost much less to produce than an hour of regular programming, and less than the failure that was "The Jay Leno Show"
MorningNews 1506 Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Their hope is that it will cost much less to produce than an hour of regular programming, and less than the failure that was "The Jay Leno Show" That makes sense. But I'm still curious to see what will become of this show. Hopefully its not just a season place holder, and returns in some form next season.
Action Newsroom 1303 Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 Nah, you're just pretty annoying. Well, who the hell are you to call--no. I am not annoying. I am a member of this website to talk about the news networks and stations in front of behind the camera. This is not about typing in certain or creative ways. I'm not here to fight with other members. So I'll leave this behind. Any more questions for me to answer? Better question: do you have a twin? Or do you have 2 accounts... and why? Let me explain in a way you'll understand...I have a family and one computer to share. And we all use Facebook...so I can't login from there if someone uses it. But I have a Twitter page...and I can login from there too. Got that? I'd like to know that also. And your typing is extremely annoying. Read the first post, dude. Now let's make sure this never happened. I'll stop typing differently if you all would stop criticizing me constantly. Agree?

fox2 191 Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 I don't find the typing annoying in the slightest :watch: . Seriously, I don't find his typing annoying in the slightest. Last time I looked, America was a free country - people who are annoyed by his typing need to get new hobbies, and the guy who wrote here "Nah, you're just pretty annoying" should see if he can find some manners and civility. And you need to get in perspective the things that annoy you in life. :rant:

They just want opinion and something to read about the news. That's what I give to this website since my first post. The typing is just typing.
