Georgie56 3304 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 CBS has announced their plans for the Super Bowl. 8K cameras are coming Live, in-game augmented reality CBSSN’s That Other Pregame Show will have a 30-minute special before Road To The Super Bowl https://www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-sports/releases/view?id=51744 https://www.cbspressexpress.com/cbs-sports/releases/view?id=51745 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-220162 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper550 291 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 On the entertainment side of things, apparently Maroon 5 chickened out of doing a press conference for their halftime show. Meanwhile in Canada, Citytv picked up The World's Best instead of CTV, so they definitely won't be airing it after the game. Unlike CBS, Citytv at least hyping it by acknowledging the creators' contributions to reality TV, and also playing it up as being from "the network that brought you America's Got Talent" (Citytv has historically been the Canadian home of said series, although these two are a world apart - pun intended). Instead, CTV will be airing a post-game program hosted by former Fox Sports 1 comedy pundits Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole.

Viper550 291 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 On the question of what CBS will have in store tomorrow from a visual standpoint, let's play another game of "See If You Can Spot Anything In The Behind The Scenes Photos" This still looks like the current graphics style (and not a scoreboard, since I can make out "Mercedes-Benz Stadium - Atlanta, GA" under it, so I guess this is just for establishing shots), but it also answers the question from the other thread about which team colors they'll use (looks like black or very dark blue for the Patriots, and blue for the Rams) Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-221387 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper550 291 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Nothing new yet, but thenagain this was a pre-game show for the pre-game show's pre-game show that normally airs on CBSSN so I wasn't expecting much. They were, however, doing this very nice looking AR video screen during one segment that seems to align with that promise of "close-up" AR with a handheld camera. WBZ is understandably doing a two-hour edition of Patriots Gameday. The only people disappointed are those who actually did want to watch Road to the Super Bowl Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-221402 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only people disappointed are those who actually did want to watch Road to the Super Bowl I would wait for the game itself before we see anything new. There was a refreshed sponsor billboard during that TOPS special. Also, WBZ moved TOPS and Road To The Super Bowl to WSBK. They’ll join CBS at 1.

Viper550 291 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Firstly, for the first time since Super Bowl XLV, we have a broadcaster using their same graphics for two Super Bowls in a row Since you were expecting such a recap... LIII - CBS 2016 --- LII - SNF '18 (Debut) LI - Fox 2014 (Final event + they chickened out on using a boxy red and white reskin of it) 50 - CBS 2016 (Debut) --- XLIX - NBC 2015 (Debuted in playoffs) XLVIII - Fox 2010/vertical scoreboard (Final event) XLVII - CBS 2013 (Debut) --- XLVI - NBC 2012 (Debuted in playoffs) XLV - Fox 2010 XLIV - CBS 2006 refresh (Debut) And also if you live in Australia and actually wish to do this, you can watch the Super Bowl with the MNF crew.

broadcastfan9751 140 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 The scoreboard appears to be the same. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-221420 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTV1983 804 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 The scoreboard hasn't changed, but there were a couple of changes made to the existing graphics.

Viper550 291 Posted February 3, 2019 Author Share Posted February 3, 2019 Literally the only changes people have noticed are just details. There are most certainly some special inserts/etc., but the core is pretty much the same. Which is a shame, cause the actual L3s/etc. have always been a bit underwhelming to me. Speaking of old graphics, the world feed still uses the now-ancient pre-CBS Thursday Night Football graphics apparently Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-221423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronQ 282 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 The only change I noticed is the touchdown transition. Edit: And the play clock transition when it countdown to 5 seconds.

AaronQ 282 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 And from ESPNDeports side of things, nothing changed from them. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16586-2018-nfl-season/page/5/#findComment-221517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
