24994J 5327 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I was gonna put this in the 'Today' thread, but I don't want to. After 6 years, the NBC peacock bug has moved back to the right side of the screen. For 'Nightly News', the bird is full-color, though it seems to be slightly transparent. The L3's are now right-alligned so the names practically touch the edge of the logo. The rainbow coloring clashes horribly with the muted nature of the graphics. The show's hashtag has moved to the left. I wouldn't be surprised if the main net's programming sees the shift as well, and as mentioned earlier, the bug will likely be sporting the Olympic rings (but not on 'NN').

localnewswatch 6 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'm thinking the NN set/graphics will be updated due to the cancellation of Rock Center, they don't need that large space anymore. Edit - The point of this is that maybe the new graphics will better fit the relocation of the logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthonyz 26 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Olympic rings were on the bug after the first break on NN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVLurker 168 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 So much for being unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skbl17 188 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 So much for being unique. Honestly, if you really want to be unique in the U.S., go European! Smack the logo at the top-left of the screen instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d247 43 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Looks like USA (who launched a new look today) has moved its' bug to the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance 2 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Apparently, Nightly's L3 text is back to left-justified, though the Twitter hashtag is on top of any other text. In my opinion, the peacock should be transparent or just not as bright. Also, the hashtag should be attached to the bug on the right and alternate with the nbcnews.com text, like it does on WNBC and now WCBS for example.

Lance 2 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 The Special Report/Breaking News graphics currently retain the previous format with the transparent bird on the left and the Nightly hashtag on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulsethousand 0 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 The Special Report/Breaking News graphics currently retain the previous format with the transparent bird on the left and the Nightly hashtag on the right. I was about to say how they started with the new logo and hashtag, then put the old ones up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
