SF1964 60 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Why aren't Ducis and Cecily's names included in the 11PM intro? It's only "Action News with Rick Williams". Most of the other daily newscasts mention the full lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The no-names short openings at noon and weekend mornings are absurd. Sundays especially, we know the team. There is no longer a second anchor. Just put the darn names in and run a full intro. And if Sarah is going to be the only permanent person at noon, ditto, put her name in. If you’re going to use John Paul permanently, great, put the name in. I get the “weather by committee” stuff, though you could cut three versions for the three regulars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder who the hosts will be? Also, and this is industry-wide... how many hours of news do we possibly need in one day?! This means on air 4-7 AM, streaming from 7-?? (not sure), now 10 AM, Noon, 4-6:30 PM, streaming at 6:30, 10 PM on PHL 17 (though who knows if that continues?), 11 PM. Let's just have Action News 24/7! Kidding, of course... though they'd probably make a better 24 hour news network than CNN... It isn’t about how many hours anyone needs, because no one (well…almost) actually watches them all. You jump in when it works for you. I watch the 5 am 1/2 hour most mornings. That they also have the other 2 1/2 hours is irrelevant. And they get all the commercial inventory with a relatively small additional expense that is spread over the entire operation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wofchristian 31 Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Since were now getting a 10AM newscast, who do you think will anchor it? And do we yet to have an actual lineup for noon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think a better lineup would be: 10am & 4pm: John Paul & Alyanna Gomez 12noon & 5pm: Brian Taff & Sarah Bloomquist 6pm, 10pm, 11pm: Rick Williams & Sharrie Williams Send Gray back to weekend AM where he shined alongside Nydia and Chris.

Roadrunner 212 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I'm not saying anyone's social media activity is a direct indication of where things would be headed but I mean.....I kinda saw this coming for a bit.

JoseRM303 169 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 The 10am newscast will be co-anchored by Alyana Gomez, Nydia Han & Alicia Vittarelli. Karen Rogers will do weather forecasts. https://tvnewscheck.com/programming/article/abc-owned-television-stations-announce-10-a-m-newscasts-for-wabc-wpvi-wtvd/ 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraham J. Simpson 311 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I guess that was a little surprising, but great to give it its own identity. Wondering if it’s going to be akin to 4 and 5 pm where one is a “third wheel”’who pops in here and there with a story or a genuine three-person anchor setup. And all props to Karen Rogers. All the prep work in the middle of the night, four hours on the morning show, inclusive of the streaming hour, now an added hour daily. Guessing then moon stays as weather-by-committee. Feel like they should give Karen the break on Tuesdays and put Chris on both Tuesday and Wednesday. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob J 0 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 With Alyana Gomez (Saturday Anchor) and Nydia Han (Sunday Anchor) being taken off weekends for the 10am show, who do we think will take over weekends? My guess is that Maggie Kent and John Paul each get one day. As for the noon show, I think it would make sense for either Alyana or Nydia to join Sarah since they will already be there for the 10am show and currently do not have any other roles on weekdays. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wofchristian 31 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Here’s the debut of the 10AM newscast! This is really interesting, it seems they are keeping Alyana, Alicia and Nydia all on the desk as regular anchors at the same time! But this makes desk looks really cramped. Also to note with the intro, for the first time in years, MCTYW is being played in the original key! I am also surprised that they didn’t debut the new graphics today.

Abraham J. Simpson 311 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 It seemed like a perfectly fine newscast, the right tone for a midday show. Interesting at the very end to see the still image for the noon show. But that’s a little bit of minutiae only a few will even notice. Nice to see after all the time she’s spent as the “third wheel” and doing fill-ins that Alicia is part of the main team for a newscast, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wofchristian 31 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 (edited) They also had a promo in the newscast for the noon newscast. In it, they showed Sarah Bloomquist and John Paul as the anchors, so that probably means John is the permanent second anchor.
