After almost 14 years, WPDE is getting new digs in a few short months (or weeks depending on the anchors posts on social media).

2010 was the last time they debuted a new set that was when Allison Floyd and Tim McGinnis were anchors and Rich Chrampanis was still sports director all of them gone. That’s how long they had the set.

The studio is now empty. According to sources they should be on the new set in late June. IMG_3200.thumb.jpeg.7fcd5be307ee233944f87a9ea80b96bd.jpeg

I wouldn’t be surprised if they get the same set that WEAR, WSBT and KATV got. 

Or WCIV in Charleston…I’ll be surprised if it’s totally different.

With the impending threat of Tropical Storm Debby, Ed gave us a sneak peek of the new weather center in his Facebook Live chat. IMG_4210.thumb.jpeg.87f088d876d5f54debafcf01ab4e73fe.jpeg

Nice, clean design. Not a fan of the red or whatever color used in the texture below the monitor wall behind the main desk; it reminds me of brick.

 

Sinclair definitely needs to update its graphics, though. They definitely haven't aged well, either.

That's basically the 2024 update to KGTV's current 2012 set... Yikes... Can't believe that set is still being made all these years later.

Actully it’s nothing like KGTV’s current set. Nothing like the layout, anchor desk or weather set. The KGTV set was designed by Park Place.  This set was designed by Sinclair’s in-house design team. It’s similar to KEYE, WLOS and a few other Sinclair stations.

Of course it's not the same layout, but this is my opinion. The desk is very similar (textures updated), the TV array behind the desk is very similar, the colors are just about the same (again textures updated, no use of all light boxes). And yes, I'm aware the sets have different designers, but for me the first thought that came to my mind was KGTV.
