What water damage could there be ... that's a relatively new skyscraper in Center City. -- Matt

Can't help but to think of the Maury Show when seeing the WMLW logo. - Matt

WHP-TV CBS 21 here in Harrisburg (not to any surprise) kept the old ticker, for now. -- Matt

I would say they have most of the graphics ready for it ... except for the open. I really believe they are having trouble matching the style of the collage-style open to the Action News theme. to the graphic look. I still think they will keep the Action News open but will adopt the rest of the package. Some things, you cannot change. -- Matt

Much needed upgrade from that other graphics package. A major upgrade. Well done! -- Matt -

Much, much better WAFF. -- Matt -
It's something to work and bulid on. It's not bad. It's not great either. -- Matt

I love the new look. While it is basic ... it's minimalistic and nice. Not bad at all. -- Matt

A 100+ Market weather branding for a Top 5 TV market. Odd. -- Matt

susquvalleywgal replied to T.L. Hughes's topic in Chicago News
Just like how there is only one WGN-TV ... There's only one Tom Skilling. A well-deserved retirement. -- Matt- 21 replies

I will never complain how dated CBS21 looks here ever again. And the NBC side of that duopoly is not having that rebrand at all. Those talent opens ... yeesh. -- Matt

New WGAL set coming THIS Tuesday!
susquvalleywgal replied to susquvalleywgal's topic in Sets & Studios
Yes, it does look nice. And yes, I've been waiting forever for it. Haha. The time-lapse video is something else. Two months of construction ... 1 month of tweaks and getting it just right ... and they kept it a secret to about 48 hours from go time. There is only a handful of stations where a secret can be kept like that and silent. -- Matt -
New WGAL set coming THIS Tuesday!
susquvalleywgal replied to susquvalleywgal's topic in Sets & Studios
Today was the day and the new WGAL Studio A made it's premiere on the Noon newscast. It is a 50 foot by 50 foot set, bigger than previous Studio B and it's just beautiful. Hats off to Hearst for making a great investment in WGAL. Here is a link to the new set including time-lapse video the construction, that took about 3 months. https://www.wgal.com/article/take-a-look-at-wgals-new-state-of-the-art-news-set/45316686 -- Matt -
After over 11 and a half years, WGAL is about to say goodbye to Studio B. New set makes its premiere on Tuesday afternoon. I wonder if this is Studio A. Not sure. But … finally! https://www.linkedin.com/posts/kristin-kay-315b44111_so-much-hard-work-and-brain-power-over-the-activity-7111802338553552896-S1XR — Matt

Perhaps. One thing about Northeast and Central PA ... is that things do not like to change or evolve. -- Matt

Kate Merriman is leaving WGAL. https://www.facebook.com/KateMerrimanWGAL/posts/pfbid0YAcAHCkmWL3und3nbqY9pbw2WeFpobYV1icDJD1BeyU5U1kCgQz1AUJnEzjF1is7l Best wishes to her in her new adventures! Her replacement, Jake Reyes has already started. He is from Florida. https://www.facebook.com/JakeReyesWGAL -- Matt

My thoughts exactly. It's nice to see plants in any studio ... not just the holiday season with poinsettias. They really did a nice job with this set. WHTM here in the SusquValley can take some pointers from WMBD. -- Matt

My opinion: Change is good here. Yes, the new 7-day look will take time to get used to, as with anything. Other's opinion: Only 1 in this FB thread liked it (two if you include my comment lol). Rest, well they don't. Once person asked to change it back to 'save his marriage'. Philly, being Philly I guess. LOL. https://www.facebook.com/6abcActionNewsWeather/photos/a.164230073660511/5984925338257593/?__cft__[0]=AZVBHUZenayjbhVYtwF9YV61w0VW-V9mI6YVOhNmdE11dx2ooOJVe-6Ncvicj0y-5CQB1PXKbZIGLBL7A0m2VMANeEzkQJBDeNdriw3FnlWUhukX3EM7OlC-hCEksa-MEfHbC29IG71wjcveHVPFGKUHTPyJr2poT8FzUXn8oudxcev5P2j01MFCxv9F6CkAjtk&__tn__=%2CO%2CP-R -- Matt

They've come a long way from stretched Helvetica. This look so nice. -- Matt

I think they should just air CLASSIC Bob Barker TPIR eps in it's place. Yeah, I know Pluto has it whenever, but I think it would be neat to see this on live national OTA television again. -- Matt

Question: Does WESH also do all the promos for the other Hearst Stations as well? -- Matt

That works for KAKE-Land Weather Plex ... not necessarily for Houston. -- Matt
-
Bad timing yes? Was there another way of handling this (like the FOX station did) maybe? But by FCC standards, practices and rules, they had to warn. It amazes me how many viewers do not realize this. -- Matt

Last night, Mike Hostettler said goodbye to WGAL and the Susquehanna Valley. After 33 years at WGAL and before that at WEWS-TV in Cleveland (I'm sure I'm correct on that one, correct me please if I'm wrong) ... He will remain in the SusquValley while in his retirement. Here's some of his best moments ... the very last video on the page is his farewell. Congrats Hossy!! https://www.wgal.com/article/wgal-news-8-sports-anchor-mike-hostetler-memorable-moments/42041782 -- Matt
