I noticed they're now using NBC 10 Weather. Is "Earthwatch" done now? Plus I saw them promoting Sheena Parveen heavily during the Super Bowl. I must ask is this a set up for her to be next in line for Glenn's job?

Overall, liking the new look and graphics all around.
Philadelphia, PA is the home of the best tv stations in the country.

Huh. Good point. Earthwatch seems to be dead (though they still use the theme with the NBC10 Weather name).

The little squares on some of the graphics reminds me of the Novocom package they used in the early 2000s

They reallly went back in time to get those NOVOCOM squares...
"Group W: Diversified and Dynamic Today... A Bold New Force For Tomorrow." from their sales tape, '82.
Wish they kept that promise back in '95...

I must ask is this because she immediately became the most attractive on-air talent locally in Philadelphia when they hired her?


Fixed that for you...

It's a sharp new look. The morning show carried me over to Today, which I hadn't really watched since before Couric left. The new L3's are the first I've liked since after the Olympics in '96 and it's nice to have a logo that reads" NBC 10!"

I did watch phl17 news at 10 to see if they adopt the new graphics, they are using a modified version without the NBC Peacock

Like the look (the logo looks almost like a fresher call-back to the CBS-era "10"). Very impressed.
Been too long, but I'm back.
