sfomspphl 545 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 KSBW April 1990 5pm intro/open - the set had just debuted and the bones of the set lasted into the 2010s. The music package switched from The Great News Package (here) to Brave New World later in the year or the following, so not quite aligned with the debut of the new set. KSBW 1989 5pm open (first part cut off) - you get a glimpse of the separate 5pm set they used until the 1990 set debuted KSBW November 1987 6pm open
sfomspphl 545 Posted February 20 Posted February 20 KABC 11pm January 1989 - this uses the 3D spinning globe with city names, similar to KGO's open around the same time, though here KABC uses the custom synth version of Cool Hand Luke by Frank Becker (not Gari). Versions of it were used from 1984-1990 by KABC, though the opens pre 1988 generally used the original Tar Sequence cut. This particular open didn't last long...used from 1988 until sometime in 1989 they went with a Miami style open for the 11pm and dropped Cool Hand Luke, but less than a year later switched to the Gari News Series 2000 version in 1990. I'm guessing KNBC and KTLA were squeezing them in the ratings during the late 80s so lots of changes until they found a groove by the early 90s. 2

sfomspphl 545 Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Speaking of WMAQ...a 1983 promo for Linda Yu with good shots of the panoramic set and using their second cousin of the WNBC theme. I like the use of the peacock color stripes in the newsroom and on the vans, tied together with the graphic at the end.
