JosiahCubed 238 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 With the KDKA version of the graphics, I could do without the immense amounts of black and gold. The version everyone else is starting to use is fine enough. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyWatch 238 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I appreciate KDKA keeping their color scheme- SOMETHING to differentiate the standardized graphics locally. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFTV 484 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I actually don’t mind the CBS NEWS PITTSBURGH Black Box. It blends well with the KDKA BOX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleWXYZ 173 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) Now that KDKA has joined the CBS collective, we are waiting for WJZ, KYW, WBZ, WBBM, and WCBS. Come to the collective guys. Resistance is futile lol. Edited March 22, 2023 by CircleWXYZ 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyWatch 238 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I somewhat surprised (and annoyed) that KDKA got the revamp before KYW. KYW seems to be teetering on the edge of relaunching but, for whatever reason, hasn't yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsunshine 16 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I actually really like KDKA's version of the graphics, it combines extremely well the standardized package with the colors it's known for. This would've been a great example for the other affiliates to follow but I'm not sure if they also had signature color schemes. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDKA was tinkering with the studio backdrop to match the new graphics yesterday before they implemented the new graphics today. It's possible KYW has some bugs they need to work out first before they implement the new graphics. Edited March 22, 2023 by Mrtraveler01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techteacher50 26 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) WJZ just got its new Weather Center with updated graphics. It even has the CBS logo jingle when the final forecast is played. Not long now until the changeover to the new branding.

Ryan 24 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 1 hour ago, Mrtraveler01 said: I hope so. What I've noticed with all of the new opens you see the name of the show like for example "At Noon, 4,5,6,10 and 11but on KDKA's open you don't see that. I don't know why but that bugs me. Another thing I feel needs to change is the KDKA/CBS News Pittsburgh Box. I would've like to have seen a gold for mornings (we'll find out tomorrow what they do with their opens) and the blue box for afternoons and evenings. 1 hour ago, Mrtraveler01 said: I have a feeling they will switch very soon.

Briella 232 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Omg the black and yellow is SO ugly. It’s funny how protective people are over their special little colors too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like WNEP and the 70's Move Closer theme.. Change it and death ensues 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the way they implented the colors with the last package was not good. But with this one, it's a little more tolerable. That's not to say it's better. It's just a little easier on the eyes to watch. Now after seeing the gold box this morning, I don't think it looks good at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycnewsjunkie 1405 Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) I guess they’ve walked back the “CBS New York” brand, at least for now. Even the newscasts are still called “CBS2 News.” If I had to guess why, perhaps it’s because there are a lot of OTA viewers in NYC? That’s the only reason it would make sense to me.
