TheMassMediaGeek 98 Posted October 31, 2019 Author Share Posted October 31, 2019 Just saw a coming up promo for the Noon news, already in their new set. I bet it’s going to look awesome.

qunewsguy 377 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 The set looks nice. I wish they'd finally dump the last vestiges of the 2008 graphics though! Those are getting realllllllly dated.

TennTV1983 804 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Kinda hard to say who designed the new space. A lot of the elements are unfamiliar and not something you would typically see from the usual suspects.

Those are getting realllllllly dated. Not really sure why they ditched the 2016 package. They could've refined/simplified that a bit more (getting rid of the lofty proclamations and tightening things up a bit) and it would look better than continually going back to that 2008 package!

MidwestTV 1232 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 It looks really sharp and modern. A European inspired look with an American flare. Honestly, I think it looks better than some network looks. I'm a big fan of that gigantic stylized 5 by the 20x11 monitor (the one without the call letters). What will they be doing with the old space?
