The show was good last night, at 10. The pace of the show seemed a little faster, more enjoyable, with the two anchors. And we almost got a full sports report, around 10h35 or 10h40. I liked it. It's going in the right direction.

I hope PIX realizes that WNYW is beatable at 10pm and that with the right mix they can really make an inroads at that hour. Dari and Steve are a very weak anchor team together and PIX should capitalize.

But one thing I did not like last night was the end, what they are going to call Scott's spot. I thought just the explanation was a waste of time, 90 seconds, if I am correct, and I assume it will be completely useless on a nightly basis.

I agree, the close ups are really too close - also there have been no side graphics, for a while, that usually appear above the shoulder of the anchor.

For the AM news Lisa is back to doing weather 4am-6am and doing a feature segment during 6am-9am.

Dan anchors 4am-6am then reports for 6am-9am.

Linda is doing weather 6am-9am. Julie is doing traffic 4am-9am.

I am at a loss as to why Mendte was hired in the first place, especially after what happened in Philly.

 

Two words: Carrey Bill.

 

Not in order, will need to put those together yourself.

What is going on with Marysol? She always seems so hyper - she's practically jumping out of her seat

 

Could be all the caffeine she's drinking to keep herself awake at the ungodly hour they have to wake up like at 1 in the morning to be at work by 2 or whatever they time they have to be at the studio.

So the management is just as goofy as the on air talent. I'm waiting for the PIX11 AM news to get a TV MA rating. :p

 

At least they were smart enough before the changes to bring back Craig Allen to do weather on the weekends.

Like last night, the anchors are not sitting in their main area with the 4 tv screens behind them. Are they finally removing those tv screen and replacing it with a picture of the NY skyline?

On the AM news they have stopped using the area of the set that had the older LCD Monitors and colored walls.

They have moved to the other wall that has 4 newer LCD monitors side by side where they usually do interviews.

 

Tonight at 10pm the regular desk and LCD monitor wall are back in use.

Can't tell if they made any changes.

Was there talk of WPIX hiring a sports reporter for weekdays or is Scott doing to do sports to?

 

Dyrol Joyner is on tonight doing the sports report.

I have to say, PIX 11, specifically the morning news is becoming much more watchable. A lot of the "sex talk" etc.. is gone and it is much more appropriate but still fun.

 

I think they do have more to do though, new set, graphics (especially traffic graphics), move Linda Church to evenings replacing Mr. G, put Chis Knowles in the whole morning show and Lisa Mateo can be entertainment reporter.
