Weather Center is my favorite. The music and graphics are soooo awesome! I am in LOVE with the opener, for sure. My least favorite is First Outlook. I was hoping that TWC would chuck the orange from 05-08...sure enough, they didnt.  :hmm: Orange just isn't a very appealing color in news packages, IMO.

My favorite is the Abrams & Bettes package. The graphics and the theme music fit in very nicely. Evening Editions comes in close behind. I can't refuse the striking visuals and the nice music.

I didn't see too much in the Weekend Outlook/View/Now. They do not stand out.

Really? I like how FO's colors are orange. It was one of my favorite packages during the 05-08 era, not only because how I like their graphics, but First Outlook was the only show that still frequently showed its own openers during the last year or so of that era.

My favorite is EE, but YWT is a close first.

I don't know why, but there is a portion of Weather Center's bumper music that reminds me of the music from 2000-2003 First Outlook. I'll see if I can capture the portion of the music I'm referring to.

I wish that Weekend Outlook and Weekend Now would get different music from eachother. It's pointless to have 2 shows with the same theme music.   :hmm:

Actually, it's 3 shows. Weekend View also has the same music.

How is it pointless :unsure:

I personally don't see a problem with it.

Well, I guess it's not pointless. But it just doesn't idolize the shows.  :ermm:

At least Weekend View uses a different cut than the other two weekend shows, and that their graphics are completely different from each other. I wish WO had its own segment openers, and different graphics that aren't close to First Outlook's.

I agree, I guess they aren't spending much time on that show because of the amount of people that view it. It's basically their "low budget show"

Do any of the packages have Lifestyles openers? I've yet to see this in any show. Also, have we seen WC's regional openers yet?
