clind 2 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 This doesn't really make sense, but the best word to describe it is...slutty. I don't know why. The last one was classier. This one screams tack and slutty. I'd have to agree with you there, the past CW style seemed a little better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjohnson 15 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I think we need to accept the fact that theWB and UPN were superior to this drivel of a network. This promo is cheap, demeaning to women, and tasteless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This promo is cheap, demeaning to women, and tasteless. Uh...they're just trying to connect with and utilize what is popular among both men AND women. And if you really find it to be demeaning, which I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you on, please see the following: The Pussycat Dolls, Kat DeLuna, Ciara, Nelly Furtado, et al. The CW is doing nothing wrong in embracing what is popular culturally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still doesn't make it s good package though, I cannot explain what wrong with CW's graphics, but it feels like something is missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if WPSG will pick this up as their news graphics package since they like using the network look which doesn't work well with news at all (although if you ask me their newscast is nothing but a 4 hour promo for traffic.com).

clind 2 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Looking and listening to it, I could care less for the music, but the styling is a nice change I will admit. Looking at it, kind of off topic, but how many areas have CW news programs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmediaguy 123 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I like the end slide with the CW logo inside a box. It looks good. Perhaps some affiliates could redesign their logos similar to this. I have yet to see a good CW affiliate logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCAUTVNBC10 408 Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well then don't watch the network. Les Moonves is not putting a gun to your head and telling you to watch the network. I really hate when people bitch about a TV show or network that shows something that offends them and it's usually a show or network that they don't even watch. If you don't like it change the channel simply put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further, how can it be said that this mic-stand dancing, scantily clad woman is demeaning to women when our society is permeated with the belief that that sort of behavior and dress among the fairer gender is actually empowering to them. Just ask any 16-year old girl who's more than willing to show off her goods at the mall. She's "empowered by flaunting her sexuality." Her mommy said so! Not to get all sociological or anything...

However, I have stifle my opinion on something because somebody doesn't want to hear it? If I think it sucks, I feel I have a right to say so. So, back on topic, what shows are are going to be great shows? Aliens in America. It sounds like a good show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blargh 2 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I doubt Aliens in America will last long, as it portrays Middle Eastern people as strange freaks. I'm not of Middle Eastern descent, and even I'm offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blargh 2 Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I suppose you're right, but that means the show stereotypes two groups of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy B 0 Posted September 2, 2007 Author Share Posted September 2, 2007 Somehow Aliens in America sounds similar to CBC's show 'Little Mosque on the Prairie' (a non PC comedy) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Tu2-lXDe2to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess 1110 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 WPSG's new promo styling looks a lot better - and if it's indicative of the whole network, it is an improvement. Far less of that overpowering green and a little more of other colors. Still, as a whole I tend to prefer the look UPN had for its last few years than the two CW looks. I think CW took on the WB promo and art guys, because the last couple of years of that network didn't look too hot either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
