NYTV 117 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 KASA-TV Albuquerque, NM, recently acquired by Telemundo debuted Look S, although without animation, as the station's newscast are being produced by NBC affiliate KOB while Telemundo builds a new base and team proper. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18356-nbc-oo-graphics-2021-look-s/page/9/#findComment-266584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ref1997 59 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 A minor update to Look S on WMAQ - there is now a blue/red background behind the bug that is attached to the lower third graphic, similar to the blue/red bug background previously on Look N. The bug's background will turn to transparent when the lower third is removed, similar to Look N. This may be rolled out to other O&O stations in the future...

24994J 5551 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) Ugh, you'd think they'd learned from Look N. If the bug goes away, it's safe to assume that that the blue/red will remain, hanging off the lower third, like a tumor.

Spring Rubber 700 Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 (edited) I'm curious how feasible it would be to have the bug's logo also be present on the lower third as a pixel-perfect match to the on-air bug, so that should the on-air bug not be present, the lower third would still have the logo there.

TheSpeedKing 265 Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 WNBC and WRC-TV do not have it yet. As a matter of fact, WRC-TV still has Look N monitors from their at-home "studios".

compubit 673 Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 The 6:15-ish rejoin on WRC was still the Look N rejoin. The open was Look S.

kdex86 53 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 With the Olympics over, I've noticed the NBC O&O stations are back to using their "regular" logos during local news broadcasts. This marks the first time that the regular logos are used with the "Look S" graphics - I believe these stations went the entire 2021 calendar year using the "Olympic" versions of their station logos. Has that ever happened before? 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18356-nbc-oo-graphics-2021-look-s/page/9/#findComment-270462 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess the notch was specific to the Olympic logo. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18356-nbc-oo-graphics-2021-look-s/page/9/#findComment-270496 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdex86 53 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 WBTS is back to having the NBC peacock cover part of the number 10 in their logo. Side note - when WBTS launched, it was known simply as "NBC Boston", and had a logo very similar to KNTV. Why did they abandon that logo/branding in favor of being called "NBC 10 Boston", especially when there is a very close by NBC 10 in Providence? 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/18356-nbc-oo-graphics-2021-look-s/page/9/#findComment-270497 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has that ever happened before? Honestly, I hardly notice as when I watch I'm more focused on news content. That being said, the NBC O&O's always revert to non olympic ring logos as soon as the Olympics are over. This past year has been a unique situation. The pandemic delayed Summer Olympics were only 6 months ago, give or take, and were quickly followed by the Winter Olympics. It may be one of several reasons viewership was low - Olympic fatigue. Personally I watched the few events I was interested in rather than wall to wall coverage and often watched it live on Peacock.

The reason WBTS labels itself as "NBC 10 Boston" despite actually being on channel 15 is due to the channel being on channel 10 on most cable and satellite providers. And speaking of KNTV, when they were bought by NBC it was initially branded as NBC 3 as it was on channel 3 on most providers.

Given the quickly dwindling subscription rate, only 72.7 million by 2023 from 100m in 2017, it's making less sense to brand your channel by cable position.
