Georgie56 3071 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Watching KXAS' 4pm, and their new music really screams Texas. It's a remixed country version of 360. Nice to not have that upper bar going on all newscast long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbnews 344 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 They should have kept their old music. I feel like I am watching some country music show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie56 3071 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Stumbled upon something on KNBC's Creative Services Vimeo page. I won't post it here for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5286 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Stumbled upon something on KNBC's Creative Services Vimeo page. I won't post it here for obvious reasons. Yeah, I just saw it. Looks really good. I wonder if the various color schemes (morning, daytime, nighttime) will translate to full-screen graphics, and not just the studio imagery? I doubt they'll do anything to the lower thirds, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBC 5 Chicago 165 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 So, maybe there is a pattern. WNBC, WTVJ, and WVIT all got the new websites before switching to the new graphics. KXAS got theirs and switched to the new graphics. I just noticed WMAQ and WRC have the new websites as well. Maybe they'll be next. WCAU, KNBC, KNSD, and KNTV still have the old websites. Maybe its nothing but there seems to be a pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5286 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 WMAQ must've just switched this afternoon. Wasn't like that midday today. The 2012 overhaul debuted on a Wednesday, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have it looks like 2-28-12 which was a Tuesday. I was thinking they would switch in August. Either for the Olympics or for their 4pm expansion. They went with Look A in August 2005.

They modified lower thirds and everything else in the current look for Today in LA, so they could do it again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5286 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 After switching to the new website yesterday, WMAQ accidentally cued up the new ticker today. One would think they'll debut within days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidwestTV 1174 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 So was it NBC's turn to decide whether or not KXAS would get the graphics? The last two times somebody said something about the other partial owners having a say in whether or not they would go with the O&O look. Also weird, I have never seen a station actually have the trademark TM on their slogan. It's neat that they were able to trademark "Texas Connects Us," but it sucks for everyone else in the state thinking of using it or coming up with it unawares. About the graphics, I really wish they would stack the time and temp. That bug is so big with so much empty space it's unsettling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do put Dallas and Fort Worth forecasts on the bottom of the time/temp; it came back on during the weather segment on the 5pm today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two times somebody said something about the other partial owners having a say in whether or not they would go with the O&O look. KXAS and KNSD are wholly owned by NBCU now and have been for a couple years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
