Looks like WGN is getting new graphics (and new cuts of Chicago's Very Own music?)

[Spring Rubber 611]

Now the bug is gone again.

[Newscenter5WCVB 29]

Again, it's not a matter of them choosing not to use the new cuts. They aren't loaded into the audio play out. So until that happens, it'll be the old cuts.

 

I want to say the green flash coming out of the tease animation was directly related to the bug being back. Something to do with the keying on the switcher.

1888? Am I dialing a toll-free number?

[Spring Rubber 611]

Bets on whether or not the new weather graphics are loaded in fully? I'll say no.

[Newscenter5WCVB 29]

I vote no.

 

EDIT: Was really scared there for a moment that since the bug was up they were going to leave it for all of weather.

Radar title bar was going weird when the radar moved from place to place.

[Spring Rubber 611]

Nice, a Jim Ramsey and Dan Roan outro.

[Spring Rubber 611]

Was that a Jackie and Rich intro? Wrong day for that.

[24994J 5276]

And a Jackie and Rich rejoin...even though he's not on tonight.

 

Yeah, what he said. ^ ^ ^

[Spring Rubber 611]

It's fun live blogging the news.

[24994J 5276]

It's like the day NBC5 debuted Look F and the new set...but without everyone losing their f*cking minds.

[Newscenter5WCVB 29]

Goodnight Bob.

[Spring Rubber 611]

Goodnight Bob.

I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation.

[24994J 5276]

Nothing new on 'Instant Replay', but they are broadcasting from the cook nook.

 

[Oooh, I need to write that one down.]

[alex979 118]

No new intro for Instant Replay.

 

But he's in a different area of the studio and the pictures behind him are sports-related.

[Spring Rubber 611]

Wow, old opener on Instant Replay. I'm shocked considering it's NFL opening day.

They did the Bears preview special on Friday from the cook nook, as well. Is this the new sports set?

[Spring Rubber 611]

They're still using the pre-2008 NFL logo on these graphics. *sigh*

[24994J 5276]

Yes, it's squished.

Maybe...they could be mixing things up to see what works and whatnot. They could have gotten some updated stuff however. A 15-20 year old black/white picture of Phil Jackson???? Really guys???

 

Don't like the new graphics at all. They don't mesh well with the set and seem cheap when compared to WLS, WMAQ, etc.... It's 2014 not 1994 for goodness sakes.

[Spring Rubber 611]

I'm strongly considering torturing myself and waking up specifically for the 4 AM news. Anybody wanna join in the fun?

[ns8401 846]

 

Yes, it's squished.

That thing has way to many angled moving parts. What is it with angles these days anyways? Everythings harder to see...

 

The music is great though.

[Spring Rubber 611]

Meh, there's no way I can get up for the 4 AM show. I guess I'll just catch the 8 AM show.

[24994J 5276]

The morning theme is absolutely fantastic.
