ChesapeakeTV 312 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 This one is so good, you'll have to view it more than once. Amazing movie open. Hope movie opens are allowed on this thread! -- Matt Considering that the theme carries the signature of their news package, I'd count it. Meanwhile, KALB in 1992...the start year for Advantage moves even further back. Note one of the anchors here - Steve Coco further south in Lafayette. 5
Info Junkie 1286 Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 KOCO 5 Alive noon open at 12:32 -- still using Gannett's old graphics WTOL 1992 WATE in 1990 (I think that's David Kaye doing the VO)
ChesapeakeTV 312 Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 WTOL 1992 You can really see the TVbD influence in this one, especially in some elements that were pretty much recycled verbatim from their previous graphics (e.g. the talent shots). WATE in 1990 (I think that's David Kaye doing the VO) That definitely isn't him - compare his work for WBBH in the same timeframe.
Samantha 2902 Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 That WTOL graphic set is classic "post-TVbD". 6
Info Junkie 1286 Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 Yeah... their sister station WFIE in Evansville used a cheap knockoff of those graphics around the same time.

KnoxvilleTVFan 286 Posted July 16, 2017 Posted July 16, 2017 I recently came across some rare footage from WCYB-TV in the form of a news break. This aired in 1979 and the news break begins at 0:33 with Alan Byrne. An ID is seen at 3:03. Talk about the rarest footage I have seen. Here's hoping we see some more Tri-Cities news footage from this period soon.
Samantha 2902 Posted July 17, 2017 Posted July 17, 2017 Any KCBD or KLBK, even IDs and promos, from 1983 is similarly rare: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=pRgkbmLI81s;t=318

justin2kx 240 Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 KOMO News 4 in 1994: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=3Of7yWX4P_A;t=127 Nothing makes me happy like a hearing a classic. Dan Dean's KOMO News 4 theme especially the promo at the beginning of clip. All I wanted to hear is the full theme rather than just a NMSA sample. If anyone, ANYONE has it, please...dm if you can. I had an interaction a while back who has the KOMO and KING cds from Dan Dean. I asked him to send the mp3 files to no avail. I'll probably try again. Man, didn't Fisher's KOMO had soul or what? (Case can made same for Bullett/Belo's KING) 6

Samantha 2902 Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Great clips from WTVJ-4 when it was CBS for South Florida on this channel: I think that's Bob Mayer's channel, personally. But yeah, there have been some great items posted there lately.

Samantha 2902 Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Wow, the writing of the news stories... It's like a newspaper on television. Also, the story count could be said to be very high! 1
Info Junkie 1286 Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 This was taken from KOTV in Tulsa during its "KOTV 6 News" era. A couple highlights include a promo for Clayton Vaughn and Karen Carlsen (at 23:55), a weather bulletin at 11:35, and a Ragu commercial at 41:12 voiced by Doug Paul. YouTuber munecojim has a lot of Guiding Light episodes from KOTV on his channel, besides this one. 3
