jake1478 0 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Maybe they will show the new set after the Super Bowl. Rob and Allison said earlier that they would be there after the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NBC 5 Chicago 164 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Seems like Sunday is the day. Rob and Allison said they will be there and they have a special report too. Definitly trying to rein in on the viewership!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5275 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 They just ran a weather promo using the new graphics and logo...the shiny network peacock is more subdued, and the weather dept. is now billed as the "NBC5 Storm Team". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake1478 0 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Knew it! And I haven't seen the new promo, but they have been using the "NBC 5 Storm Team" for a couple weeks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5275 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Let's see...it's 10:13 and the news preview just aired. So what do we have? Super Bowl done, Voice almost over Rob and Allison are in place The studio's lit, the graphics are on the screen, the theme music playing So what's the problem? Their in Studio 5 with Look A and Tower V.1 in use. Unless they run over the NBC Tower in 15 minutes, no changes tonight. Bummer. Update (10:23): They couldn't run fast enough. :bang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill875 0 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Grrr. I keep tuning in to missed opportunities via my Slingbox Pro-HD back in Chicago as I'm now living in crap market WCNC (upconverted SD) hell... Charlotte, NC. I don't miss hearing about Pat Quinn and Rahm though. What a cluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 818 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I don't know...maybe the earlier thoughts about Monday might be correct... No way they have as big an audience tomorrow as they have tonight. Dumb move to wait if everything is ready to go. Who knows what's going on....

Either they will wait till tomorrow and switch or they are really overhauling the tower set and need more time. Funny thing though, they have been airing all the new promos with the new logo. And Brant is finally at the green screen after more than 2 months sitting at the desk due to a broken leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5275 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Well, there is one bit of good news, Brant Miller's finally recovered from the broken leg. He's back in front of the green screen. @NBC 5 Chicago: you just beat me to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5275 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 If nothing happens tonight at 10pm, I'll see if I can email as a "concerned viewer" and see what's up. It'll probably be a lost cause, but what the heck...it couldn't hurt. The worst they could say is nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
15connects 4 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 It appears the new set/gfx won't appear tonight...I believe they record the teases for the 10pm, at least the ones until 9:45 after the six o'clock, but the tease used the old graphics.

24994J 5275 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Yeah, I give up...I'll check back in with Channel 5 in a couple months and be pleasantly surprised when I see that they're only using a basic, half-assed, creativity-at-a-bare-minimum version of Look F and say to myself "ah, good for them". And then I'll put Channel 7 back on. :rant: Goodnight, everybody... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compubit 670 Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Has NBC 5 gotten a new desk recently? Watching the Superbowl, I was wondering if the desk Bob Costas was sitting at possibly being used in Indy is targeted for NBC 5? One of the hints (to me) of it being repurposed after the game is that during game coverage, there were 3 people at the desk (when I saw people sitting at it), but the are 4 in-desk monitors (if you look closely) - more appropriate for a local newscast? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
