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

I still prefer the music/signature of the music before the last set of updates. So two generations before this.

[24994J 5589]

Yes. Definitely.

Another newscast, another bug change. It's now a faded shade of the blue seen in the graphics. It looks good, now hopefully they could keep it this way.

I'm not sold on the evening or nine o'clock themes. However, I've gotta say that the new morning music is amazing.

So, are they ever going to put the new music into the playback system, or are they unhappy with the music and looking to get it redone or something?

I'm not feeling the evening music nearly as much as the morning stuff.

What I don't really care for is on the weekend talent bumps, they mention specifically that Jim Ramsey does weather and Dan Roan does sports. They don't seem to do that on the other ones that I've seen. Just a little weird. I love stations that do talent bumpers, I wish more stations would.

Well, I hope they'll get it together soon and put the new music in the playback system. The mixture of new and old music cuts is awkward and does not sound too good.

[Spring Rubber 705]

There's gotta be another issue here where they're commissioning different cuts than originally planned or something. We're now going on two full weeks of still using the old music. It would seem to me that they didn't like how the music sounded in teasers, and they want something a little more heavy-hitting. Again, that's just my speculation. If anybody has any official word, please feel free to chime in if you're allowed to.

Been noticing that the Closed Captioning sponsorship screen on all newscasts has the WGN Morning News logo. Oops!

[24994J 5589]

They made another positive change to the bug. The glassy skyline has expanded from like 6 spinning buildings to a legitimate silhouette.

I've never seen a city skyline being in a logo/time and temp bug before, and this is one of WGN's positive change!

Actually, this whole city skyline by the bug thing reminds me of WPIX's new graphics. The skyline only appears when the lower third is in use. Take a look (I figured I'd use this pic :lol: )

So about that new music...I guess it got scrapped?

[Newscenter5WCVB 29]

Rumor has it that Jennifer Lyons isn't a big fan of the new music. No word on what to expect.
