TWC Behind the Scenes

Thanks! I love seeing behind the scenes. You can definitely tell they have to be on the ball when on live television.
That video showed that the middle video wall panel wasn't turned on... I hope it didn't die...again....

From what I heard they are remodeling. New sets, new desk and new graphics(?)

I sure do hope so, but I'm not holding my breath on the latter. But if there were new graphics, I'm hoping they would change YWT. Its graphics are just ugly.

Why not? They just recently changed Weekend Now's graphics, that would be a sign to me that the other remaining shows still carrying the June 2008 graphics will be revamped graphically also. It would be pretty stupid to leave a mixed bag of old and new graphics of snow openers like that imo.

I meant not immediately after the studio change, since the graphics are being rolled out slowly. I would still give the graphics update some time. I was originally going to mention that new graphics were still a possibility in my original post, but I was thinking it would make a contradictory post.

Sorry for the double post, but I just noticed a new station ID. I'm not sure if it's been used before, but it has a beach. What's different about this one is at the end it says "or visit weather.com."

It might have just been that they use the middle one for a background when they're sitting @ the main desk and they might not have had a video source fed into it?

New graphic packages I can understand, but new sets? I don't really see much wrong with the current studio....  :hmm:

I would have thought that they went back to the male voice for the next ID update. And the narrator is talking WAY too fast. Slow it down there, Sally!

Well, let's look on the positive side, NBC might just do something right for once.


:rofl2: Who am I kidding? NBC can't do ANYTHING right.
