Gotta say...everything flows really well, graphics-wise.  The new LDL blends very well with the on-screen graphics package.

Good job, TWC.

I find it odd there isn't a new :57 ID background that's more HD-friendly. (ie widescreen).

Final local before the launch....

Argh...Your post didn't show up when I submitted...and didn't give me that "new post" alert...must be a flaw of the mobile version.  I'll delete it when I get on the 'real' version.

The deal has not closed yet.  TWC is still Landmark's.  NBCU just put in a bid.

Is the Local Wx ID still shown?  Cuz if it is, and the date isn't...I'd seriously bring that to the attention of someone.

Good job control room...when Alex was at the wall for the weekly planner, they used the city rotating lower-thirds and the HD countdown non-stop while she was there.

I'm not complaining...I'm just bummed that I have three of the songs already.  I've been looking for Big Country forever...glad I can pick it up.

Quit complaining, eh?

Didn't know you were Canadian, Gary......

Everything Else TWC / Re: TWC has started pillar boxing 4:3 programming

Distracting would be if they used the pillarbars for forecast information.

Is it just a standard black bar, or is it a custom bar?
