10Viewer 338 Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) I knew I remembered print ads from WXFL with the "Time Well Spent" slogan and that image of the house at the end of the promo. Believe that slogan was a dig at WTSP's hourlong 6 o'clock news experiment from 1986-87. By 1988, 'XFL had largely passed WTSP at 6 o'clock but the 11 o'clock race was still competitive into 1989. Also probably a dig at WTVT and their hourlong 6 o'clock newscast. Edited October 8, 2019 by 8Viewer

And was this done only on the weekends? No. They did it on weeknights too, as late as 1986 before the logo change: That being said, they might’ve been the only Gannett outlet to use the ID as the open. Indeed, by this point (December 1983) many Gannett stations were phasing in the CGI Deathstar IDs (WTCN I believe was the first). 2
Samantha 2902 Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Huh, I had always assumed from the other aircheck that the cold open was because Linda Álvarez left...but it seems like it really was a thing for the 10pm at this time.
