    Shari - "I tried too, back to inexplicably allowing Pictionary (which airs against The Talk on the Fox O&Os) to have a Talk week and self-sabotage our daytime ratings!"

     

    (I did not make up the last item about Jerry O'Connell's Pictionary having The Talk cast on their show last week instead of a CBS game show. Why do that?!)

    Well, Jerry is a host of The Talk. I guess it is a little odd considering the Fox connection (although, at least here in Philly, Pictionary airs before The Talk, not against it), but it's not as strange as it would be if they had the cast of The View on or something.

    Are either Erin O’Hearn or Jeff Chirico still employed by the station? Though both are still on the bios page, neither seems to have been on air for several months. 

    Sorry for the late reply, I just saw this. Jeff Chirico's LinkedIn says he left in November, and is now a realtor full-time. Erin O'Hearn's page still says she is there, though.

    Would she be replacing Judge Judy at 4?  I guess CBS doesn't feel a 4 pm news broadcast competing against the ABC and NBC O&O's is worth it?

     

    A lot of CBS O&O's don't air Judge Judy. KYW never did. Now they have a 4p newscast. I do agree that Drew Barrymore could move to that slot though (or she could start airing at 3 and Dr. Phil could move to 4).

  4. I noticed her in the promo, too, alongside Llarisa Abreu, Lauren Casey, and Kate Bilo, all of whom are full-time meteorologists.

     

    Speaking of freelancers, has anyone seen former weekend morning meteorologist Matt Peterson on lately? He filled in a while ago, and when someone asked why (because he left in August), he said he was back part-time.

    WJET/WFXP got a new look a week ago. The new WJET open means the end of any Hothaus-era WKRC-like graphics package.

     

    No, it doesn't. They still use it for L3's I think.
