ATLNewsExpert 455 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 KBS, the Korean Broadcasting System, since it's relaunch of it's flagship news program "News 9", has went through a few looks while keeping the same design. I shared back on this form, this debuted in 2022. When anchor Lee So-jeong was fired after some controversy, the show got a new intro, and brought back it's iconic late 90's - 2019 theme, a new score. But now the 2022 intro has been resurrected, slightly updated, and the 2008-2019 version of the classic theme has also been resurrected. Keep in mind, through all these changes, they kept the same set and lower thirds, and the other news programs kept the same look! 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15210-international-out-and-about/page/12/#findComment-303771 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 2415 Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 France Thanks to last summer's decisions made by ARCOM (one third of France's FCC), C8 and NRJ12 have shutdown and are out of service on DTT. The French government channel Le Chaine Parlementaire (the C-SPAN France equivalent), replaced C8 on Channel 8, and the kids channel Gulli replaced NRJ12 on, you guessed it, Channel 12. The new channel list for FREE OTA TV in France starting in March is posted here: https://www.arcom.fr/presse/nouvelle-numerotation-des-chaines-de-la-tnt-compter-du-6-juin-2025 It includes moving France 4 to Channel 4 and the news channels (BFM TV, CNews, LCI, and Franceinfo) to Channels 13-16. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15210-international-out-and-about/page/12/#findComment-304074 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRolyPoly 2415 Posted Wednesday at 08:05 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 08:05 PM UK Not news but more TV in general. ITVBe is closing and migrating some of their programs to ITV2. In its place... ITV Quiz, a new gameshow network that's eerily family to one they used to operate, ITV Play, which would later close due to a scandal. I hope it doesn't go that route this time. However, I can see programs like The Chase and Tipping Point on the new network. https://www.tvzoneuk.com/post/itvbe-itvquiz-rebrandann1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15210-international-out-and-about/page/12/#findComment-305085 Share on other sites More sharing options...
