hfiles 80 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 The lower thirds look like it should be called "CNN Mornings." Especially when there's breaking news and the orange turns red. Also, my local affiliate still has the wrong time zone and wrong weather on the ticker. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13225-cbs-mornings/page/17/#findComment-264478 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth Kissel 281 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) Looks like there is a difference depending on who owns the station. The first Picture is CBS O&O KOVR, the 2nd is Tegna owned KFMB, the third is Cox owned KIRO TV. Look at the difference in tickers or lack their of.

The graphics are very CNN and the CBS bug is too small, otherwise the lower third is a nice look, much improved! The name change however was utterly unnecessary. If this fails, give up the morning attempts and hand the slot to the local cbs affiliates. 6 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13225-cbs-mornings/page/17/#findComment-264482 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I can see on the KDKA version of the ticker bar, there is a modified version of the KDKA logo in between the time/temperature and ticker. Huh...that's the same one which popped up during Steelers pre-season games, so there's a change in the making for sure. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13225-cbs-mornings/page/17/#findComment-264488 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorningNews 1448 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Wow - did CTM ever use a soft set area with couches and chairs like they did this morning? I can see the show gravitating more and more towards The Early Show than CTM and let’s be honest that format just works for American morning television.

PLEASE CBS, Whatever you do, Don't go back to The Early Show . It Was more Horrible then This is. This was done at Trump Plaza in its beginning run too before moving to 5th Avenue. I agree about giving this to the Affiliates if CBS Mornings doesn't work out. How did this not get changed for over 12 Years? 3 minutes ago, 24994J said: Just throwing it out there.

FmrENCNewser 21 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I feel like most everyone else the name change was completely unnecessary. It seems like to me CBS had actually gotten some traction with CBS This Morning. Why throw all that away for a new name? I love the Eye Opener and am glad that it wasn't discarded. But I agree with the poster earlier on who said it is slowly devolving into a tease for the show ahead rather than serving as a look at your world in 90 seconds. The music will grow on me, I suspect. I love the new graphics and studio. I also like the fact that talent isn't confined to the main desk and is moving around a bit more. While I'm disappointed Anthony Mason is no longer part of day to day activities, I'm looking forward to the pieces to come from him which I think he excels at. I'm willing to give Nate the benefit of the doubt, but it seems to me he just sat there today like a bump on a pickle. Not sure what was up with that. He showed a lot more personality during the time he filled in for Tony while he was out on paternity leave. All in all, as long as they continue to focus on hard news the first hour with a bit more features in the second hour, I'll keep watching. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/13225-cbs-mornings/page/17/#findComment-264502 Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5575 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I came THIS CLOSE to rechristening the thread as CBS Early This Mornings News Show. Oh, and the lower thirds suck.

Of all the Morning show attempts CBS has has was CBS This Morning (2012) the most successful? and I’m curious as to which morning show attempt do you think was CBS’s best?
