At 3:55 PM ET before going to break, they used the Day Planner teasers lower third.

Interesting, they're using the original A&B live tag (the non-"shiny") one on A&B tonight.

After the 8:58 PM ET local forecast, they showed one of those 'coming up' promos where it said something along the lines of "Watch When Weather Changed History at 8 and Evening Edition at 9" then they showed the normal WWCH top-of-the hour bump.

I can't hear him at all. There's no sound whatsoever. But I was able to hear the LF just prior to him just fine.   :unsure:

The commercial audio is fine to me, but the local forecast music seems a bit soft, especially compared to the IS narration.

Everything seems fine now. I couldn't hear Mike at all, then the commercials came on and were fine, and then the LF was fine, and now A & B are fine.  :unsure:

And, thus far, they've been using the original one all week.

They're also using a new lower third on which the white-ish line separating the top and bottom lines of the L3 is thicker and creates an awkward looking A&B logo on the left. At the same time that this happened, they've restored animated corner logos for A&B, YWT, and possibly other shows.

I liked the animated corner logos. Gives it a "lively" look

Wow, I wasn't expecting this... They just used a normal Local On The 8s opener. The one with the guy walking on the beach at sunrise/sunset. I don't think I've seen that opener since last July.  :thrilled:
