  1. Looking forward to the new Eyewitness News Mornings. Curious what they will do to differentiate the show from the competition. There is nothing wrong with Action News. They have perfect chemistry. And, Fox 29 puts out a strong morning newscast. And, V And Tracey on NBC10 are familiar and stable. Should be interesting to watch.
  2. That makes more sense. The article didn't do the set justice.
  3. At least it's resolved. Now they don't have to mention her absence in every related story.
  4. I would agree --- NBC10 has to resolve the Renee Chenault-Fattah issue. Otherwise, it's the better station for in depth hard news coverage.
  5. Nice set. Nothing special. Odd they just use it at noon. Why the cheesy graphics?
  6. New York stations are doing the same thing with plugging their primetime lineup. It's nothing new. But, I split my viewing time between WABC and WPVI. It seems to be an O & O mandate. Local news in Philly really has changed. NBC10 does a very good hard/breaking news product, with enough features to balance it out. And, they do have some well known names in the market. PVI is still Jim Gardner and the theme song, but they are slipping. CBS3 is trying. I like the team, but the content is off the mark. Fox29 and Fox 5 are actually the freshest things going on in the morning.
  7. Watched them for years. WSVN is a giant.
  8. Love the set. And, their graphics are great. Is it me, or do they not produce as much hard news?
  9. Love the fresh looks from the talent. But, it does look like "The Talk" is about to start.
  10. 10 is very good at hard news. 3 has improved, but not enough to challenge 10. I do like Ukee at 11pm. Much improved over the previous team.
  11. Congratulations to all of the stations for great coverage during the storm. 3, 6 and 10 all had strong points. Aside from the ratings, who stood out?
  12. Technically, the station has many problems. There 10pm weekend news was a train wreck the other week. I actually felt sorry for the anchor continuously apologizing. There is plenty of news to cover in the area, just read The Morning Call or Lehigh Valley Live. But, WFMZ seems content with feature stories. It's much easier to watch WPVI for the big stories. Their morning news is written well. WFMZ is going through the motions. They do have some good on-air talent. But, as the previous poster mentioned, they usually get picked up my larger markets. As far as their talent goes: Eve Tannery - The best. Good at hard news and features. The runaway leader of the team. Jaciel Cordoba - Dry, robotic style. Will Lewis has much more personality. But, Jaciel always looks good. Matt Broderick - The best in their weather department. Melanie Falcon - She is very boring an anchor. Nothing special, but the team has some fire. Jim Vaughn - Lightweight at best. He is the 2015 Anchorman. Wendy Davis - Works well with Rob. Loved her on political coverage. Rob Vaughn - For the size station/market, he's a professional. He's the leader at night. They should pair him with Eve. Ed Hanna - The weather guy you either love or hate. Troy Hein - Excellent sports story teller. Very good. Makes sports action come alive. This guy is a star. Bo Koltnow - Not a good weekend anchor. Good reporter. Karin Mallett - Much better on the evening news. Chandy Lowry - Very professional. Jamie Stover - Their best reporter. Look for her at WPVI someday. She is good. Jaccii Farris - They should let her anchor. Will Lewis - He could anchor in the morning. Rosa Duarte - Nothing memorable. I saw her fill in as an anchor once, it was college TV at it's best. Perla Lopez - Nothing to get excited about. Roberto Vinces - Great sports reporter. He does bring the show alive. Entertaining. Hillary Lane - She has developed nicely. Solid reporting skills. She is going to move to a bigger market. Keleigh Gibbs - She looks like she is putting together a Vimeo demo every night. Flashy/visual... not WFMZ. Just moving on. Amanda VanAllen - Amazing. They have a winner. Ryan Hughes - Solid reporter It's just not PVI.
