I don't see where Alex made a first guess. (edit, ah, I remember now, he guessed PA)

Anyway, I'm going with West Virginia.

OCMs & Personalities / Kim Perez moving to Day Planner?

« on: May 30, 2008, 06:58:54 AM »

Today at the end of First Outlook they mentioned that Kim Perez was moving to a different shift in the late mornings/early afternoon. It looks like she will be Jennifer Lopez's replacement on Day Planner/Weekend Now, and it means that Jennifer might be leaving TWC very soon.

In the past week or so, I noticed that the text being output on the chyrons has become jagged on the edges; I wonder if it has something to do with resources being devoted to the HD productions.

Chyrons? I had to look that one up. Why not just say lower third?

BTW, thanks for that screenshot/video, Steve.

Anyone have a pic of these per chance?

You've read my mind, Tyler. I was just about to ask that myself.

Is anyone able to view Youtube? I can't log into the site.

I can, but it says they're preforming site maintenance.

Wait, they've just started? I thought SD programming on the HD channel has always been pillar boxed, like this:



If they've just started, how was it before? Stretch-o-vision?

When will she leave TWC during her maternity leave?

Well if Betty Davis' pregnancy is any indication, it won't be for quite a while.

Why does the LIVE tag never show during the national outlook map that is shown at :55 during EE?

Ya know, I've noticed that Alex has done very few segments up at the wall lately. Could this be the reason why?

Edit: She's up at the wall right now. I just hope none of her long, dangly necklaces hurt the baby.

I don't get it. I see virtually no difference between the new one in Beanboy's pic and the old one, other than maybe a very SLIGHT change. Seriously guys, what's the difference?

Compare these two and you'll see the difference.

I really don't like the new player. Is there any way to get the old one back?

I have a strong feeling that people are just typing these into google.

I get that feeling too...
