New videos from the "430" group of channels:

Close Up Gendai (Today's Close Up) in 1994 on investigations of a plane crash (theme music sounds quirky and unpleasing):

News Zap, BS Sky Perfect, April 2015:

This program which airs on a satellite pay TV preview channel broadcasting from the BS satellite (which has its own programs), contains mostly some live previews of news channels available on Sky Perfect TV's platform and discussions with experts with on the news of the day, roughly like NHK BS1's. I think this is a one of a kind news program; not sure if any pay TV providers do such kind of programs like this on their preview channel.

 

Commercial breaks in the video only include promos for Sky Perfect TV's channels at 33:30, 1:33:10 and 1:47:44.

Get a load of that glass block curve set!

 

I had shared the video two posts above. You didn't realize me.

Here's a good example of a bilingual newscast: NHK's News9 from 1995:

MBS Now from 1995. Interesting open! The newscast is mostly complete, but the uploader has cut some stories apparently to protect personal information.

And a morning newscast with lots of 3D animation:

Between the surreality of the images and the quality of Japanese computer animation (very different feel from Western stuff of the time), Japan opens really do stand out.
