tyrannical bastard 3953 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 Who runs specials live in other time zones?....meaning the ball drops at 11pmCT, 10pmMT, etc.... I know WMBB has run Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years Eve live the past few years. The other specials were delayed an hour to coincide with midnight.

CircleSeven 1955 Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I don't know about other television stations but I know on the ABC Stations, they usually air the 'Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve' Celebration live on stations that are on the Eastern & Some Central Time Zones. The Stations in the Mountain & Pacific Times are aired on Tape-Delay. Now some stations do tape-delay the special so it can air at 11:35 to coincide when Midnight occurs in their respective time zone. Also on the special, the Los Angeles portion of the program where recording artist do their performance always be recorded, yet I'm not sure if it taped days apart or hours apart. WLS does air Dick Clark Special live at 10:35pm and air when the ball drop occurs at Times Square. Then at around 11:08pm Local Time, Channel 7 does their Local New Year's Eve special which includes live bands performing during the telecast. When Midnight occurs, there's a fireworks display from the Lakefront at Grant Park and it last at least 15 minutes. Then when they finish their local telecast at about 12:18am, they'll go back to airing the Dick Clark Special but tape-delayed from where they left off. Here is the WLS's Monday Night Lineup: 9:00pm Dick Clark's' New Year's Rockin' Eve (Primetime Special) 10:00pm ABC 7 News at 10 10:35pm Dick Clark's' New Year's Rockin' Eve (Part 1) - Live 11:08pm Countdown Chicago 2008 - Live 12:18am Dick Clark's' New Year's Rockin' Eve (Part 1) tape-delayed 1:16am Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve (Part 2) tape-delayed WBBM will also have a New Year's Special airing at 11:35 after Letterman.

rjdickens 1 Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 We will do our traditional New Year's Eve special; however, I won't be there so they'll have to find someone else to stand out in the street and talk to drunks and homeless people lol Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2781-new-years-eve-celebrations-specials/#findComment-24973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
