CLTV shutting down.

Looks like 6pm on New Year's Eve is the end of the line for CLTV. That's when the program guide lists SIGN OFF for the channel. Politics Tonight will be the final show at 5:30pm. Kind of a shame; I was hoping they would end with a normal newscast. Instead, the final newscast will be at 2:30pm. I set a DVR recording for both.

Here we go, time for the end of an era. I still have fond memories of CLTV from the 90s during my childhood. :(

Wow, they cut Paul off mid-sentence, at least on Xfinity, and went to sign-off. Not sure if it's the same for everyone. How embarrassing. Not a pretty send-off at all.

Shortly after that, they took it behind the barn ...and shot it.

It's unfortunate, but also... the reality now.

 

Local cable news channels don't care about signing off with traditional and custom farewells anymore.

CLTV dropped this vid of veteran reporter Marcella Raymond signing-off on one of its last newscasts. Was this the 2:30pm show? 

 

Had they repuposed the old WGN set? Also, I like that they plugged High Velocity V.1 in the final newscast.

With the background playing my favorite cut of the whole 'high velocity' package: the morning bumper.
