    That's the first thing I thought when I first saw the commercial... that it must be a mistake...But it did say Kelly at 3 and Ellen at 4. 

    What would air at 2 then? Since Steve Harvey was canned.

    Just saw a commercial this morning for The Kelly Clarkson Show and Ellen saying Kelly will air at 3pm and Ellen at 4pm... I guess 4pm newscast is cancelled? 

    I think that’s a mistake because from what I’m reading Kelly’s show will air at 2 pm (Steve Harvey’s old time slot) Ellen will remain at 3. I doubt the 4 pm  news is getting canceled.

    Source?

     

    considering she has rarely been on air, not connected to the anchor team and the viewers this is surprising.   If it was for Sat or Sunday that would make more sense.   Either Raphael Miranda or Erica Grow should have been selected.  I wouldn’t blame them if they bolt. 

     

    She made the announcement on her social media pages.

    I don't think Cimino's retirement is forced.. He spent 24 years at one station. Never having to leave and go against a rival station and plus Chris is on good terms with Management at WNBC . (So definitely no forced retirement here)

    However, Erica definitely deserves a promotion and I like her for 5 & 6, possibly Chief Meteorologist after Janice leaves. I give Janice another 5-7 years.

    3 scenarios that may happen with Chris replacement:

    A) Dave gets bumped up to TINY and Rafael 11AM & 4PM

    B) Rafael bump to TINY and Dave keeps 11AM & 4PM

    C) Erica bump to TINY* (Wild card), Dave keeps 11AM & 4PM, Rafael stays at weekend TINY.

    Option B is most likely what is going to happen with someone new taking over Rafael spot on weekend mornings.

    They (WNBC) can't seen to get it right with the anchors for 11AM. All the other O&O's either have or already got their 11AM anchors right..

    Calm down there. David is working Stefan’s shifts while he is out on paternity leave. Jummy is filling in for Natalie this week and Stacey was on her normal shift. When Natalie goes on leave later this fall Stacey will once again fill in for Natalie at 4, 6 & 11 pm in addition to 5 pm duties. Likely a rotation of fill in anchors will co-anchor with David at 11 am while Stacey is on evening duties.

    And for all we know in the coming years Sam will end up back at GMA or Lee will and Sam will end up back on evenings. The morning weather anchor slot at WABC might open again before long. I’ll put it to you this way. It’s not likely that Sam will last 26 years on mornings like Bill. Just think WABC could have really screwed this one up and made Sam the weather-caster for the evening newscasts and offered Lee mornings and then ticked him off and got him to leave. 

     

    Sam is pushing 60 and unless Ginger intends on leaving GMA in the next few years (which I don’t see happening) I highly doubt Sam will be going back to GMA permanently before he retires.

  7. Doubt he’s going to replace Bill Ritter at 6 & 11 as the late hours is one of the reasons he & his wife left KSHB in the first place. My guess gonna anchor at noon (replacing Shirleen who can focus on the morning shift) and reporting for the 4, 5 & 6 pm shows. 

  8. King 5 anchor Lori Matsukawa announced today that she will be retiring after 36 years at KING. Her last day is June 14th. Morning anchor Joyce Taylor succeeds Lori as evening anchor beginning June 17th.

    It'll be interesting to see who'll replace Reed.  If they went with an inside pick, it'd likely be Shon Gables, Tracye Hutchens, Gurvir Dhindsa, or Karyn Greer being considered.  Not sure of the chances Stephany Fisher would be rehired.  Or CBS 46 could go with an outside pick, it'd likely be someone from a competing station, or from a different TV market.  It'll also be interesting to see whether Reed has landed a job at a TV station in a bigger TV market or one of the networks, if she's staying in the TV news business.

    FTVlive is saying Shon Gables is likely to get Sharon’s spot and that Tracye Hutchins would remain on mornings.

    FTVLive saying the station "decided to part ways" with the two is a stretch at best (but what else is new for him?). They have three kids that are all like, under the age of 5. They both worked primetime in TV news. How they ever had time to be with their kids is a mystery to me. Good for them though focusing on their children. I'm sure it was tough working their schedule with such young children.

     

    I’m pretty sure it was their choice to leave. Doing 3 shows a night and I doubt they had a dinner break with enough time to go home and see their kids probably weighed on them. If they do find another gig I imagine it will be reasonable hours

    Some changes coming to WTVJ starting tomorrow. Johnny Archer moves to mornings from weekend evenings. No word yet on who he will replace. Angie Lassman goes back to 11 am and 4 pm.

    He’s not replacing nobody. He’s an anchor from the alert desk so breaking news, information just coming in type of stories. Roxanne and Sheli are still the Main morning anchors.

  13. King 5 7, 9 & 10 pm weeknight anchor Amanda Grace posted on Facebook that tonight is her last night at King 5. Says she’s stepping away from local television for a new opportunity.

    Travis said himself that he'll be chief. Where are you hearing about Tillman?

     

    EDIT: BOTH are chief? What the hell is that?

     

     

    Travis is Chief meteorologist while David is chief weathercaster as to why 2 chiefs who knows perhaps for severe weather etc they can tag team.

    Probably a split between David Tillman & Myers?

     

    Something tells me that they're not going to hire a new fifth weather anchor in the near term.

     

    They recently hired Rachel Briers who joined last month from last KWES. I had originally thought Collin would take over Elita’s old schedule of 11a, 3 & 4p until I saw his FB post. So wonder if Rachel will do 11a & 4p M-F and add the 3p on Monday’s & Tuesday’s? Or perhaps she takes David’s weekend slot and David is moved to weekdays?
