Weeters 1916 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Did FOX29 say when the new set will be complete? Tomorrow! Really though, most of the time the debut date for new sets is on or right before the start of the next sweeps period. Late April is a good early guess for ALL the new sets that are under construction right now. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-147715 Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsfan6 22 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Expect it to look quit similar to Atlanta's FOX O & O set. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-147748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dk_mediaNYC 30 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 the old fox 29 set did get a duratran change a few years ago? after they changed the graphics in 2012 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-147767 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb542 13 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Good Day will be on for 20 hours on Friday for their 20 year anniversary Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-147982 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyWatch 239 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 An article from the Delco Times says Mike & Alex will be in the window at 4th and Market for 20 consecutive hours interacting with passers-by to celebrate the anniversary, but I'm not sure if it'll be a straight broadcast. I'm figuring it'll be a streaming event (or maybe they could air it on the currently nonexistent 29.3). Also an interesting tidbit from the article is that Donya Archer will be back during the week of April 4th, though there was little other information on that. With the anniversary celebration scheduled to last all month, could they let Alex take off and have Donya anchor for a day or two (or five)? Friday should be a blast, as should April. Cheers to Good Day! (All this also makes for a prime opportunity to debut that new set) Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-147984 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Newsroom 1283 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 You know what would also be great? If Sheinelle would be there too. The show was the local powerhouse it deserved to be thanks to the pairing of her and Mike. I know Donya Archer was awesome to you all, but since I was a kid when she was co-anchor-and can't remember much about her then, Sheinelle was awesome to me.

PhillyWatch 239 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 If I'm not mistaken, Donya made her way back into private life (save for a part in one classic sketch). With Sheinelle in the big leagues now up at NBC, it might be difficult for an appearance but she more than deservedly should be involved. Hell, Kerri-Lee should show up at some point too.

SF1964 63 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 How are Mike and Alex going to be on at 5pm for the live stream if the evening news will be going on in the same studio? I was watching the live stream earlier and just turned it on now during the 5PM news. Alex and some guests are sitting off to the side near the window whispering. You can hear the regular news anchors doing the news in the background.

PhillyWatch 239 Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 The stream during the newscasts was totally bizarre (then again, isn't that what this is all about?). It was Alex & Mike with two local radio personalities basically on their phones while Chris & Dawn did a newscast less than 10 feet away. Overnight should be a trip! 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-148371 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb542 13 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I was watching Good Day this morning. Sheinelle Jones was the suprise guest today. She wasn't in the Good Day studio. She taped it from the Today Show set. Comparing her to Alex Holley, I like Alex better! 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13140-the-fox-29-newsgood-day-philadelphia-thread/page/4/#findComment-148745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb542 13 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Why does FOX 29 never show SKYFOX while it is over breaking news? WPVI and WCAU show their copters sometimes but never fox.

TheRolyPoly 2447 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Why does FOX 29 never show SKYFOX while it is over breaking news? WPVI and WCAU show their copters sometimes but never fox. Maybe its because they don't actually have a helicopter and they just use SkyFOX for branding purposes with a shared helicopter?

ABC 7 Denver 1717 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Because FOX operates the black helicopters and we don't discuss that here. Lol. I'm not 100% sure what the deal is, but I'm going out on a limb and saying SSA.
