PhillyWatch 238 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Here's hoping the classic logo sticks around. It breaks up the rectangular monotony of the current gfx and I appreciate them using it for the bug today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven 1944 Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm sure the "Youse Up Yet" was no more than the "cleverly" April Fool's stunt and nothing more. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyWatch 238 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 It appears Dave Kinchen has returned after a two year stint working with the city. From his twitter feed it looks like he came back around the beginning of August Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillynewslover 126 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Drew Anderson will be joining the Fox 29 Weather Authority team from WFMZ, where he worked weekend mornings. He is a great meteorologist and will be an awesome edition to their team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhillyWatch 238 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Watching Good Day on Friday & this morning, they're anchoring from in front of the monitor setup with a video feed of the corner windows behind them. This makes me think they have to be making some desk or set adjustments. Otherwise, why anchor from next to the window... with a feed of the window... instead of just their regular spot in front of the window?

I'm pretty sure they're actually upstairs in the main news studio. I guess Studio 29 is getting a makeover. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess 1110 Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 The 10pm news seems to have been dramatically reformatted. I’m catching up on the livestream. it’s now titled “10 at 10”. the ENTIRE newscast now seems to be formatted into 10 minute blocks. Jason Martinez did the first 10 minutes, then traded off to Shaina Humphries for another ten minute block. Jason’s on a third block as I type this. Each block starts with a “Rundown”, complete with large Gannett 1.0-style graphic on right side. Weather is now two 1 minute hits in each “block”. More frequent commercial breaks of just 60 seconds, including before the seven day forecast. Each block is slightly different. Shaina’s block seemed to have more national stories. The first two started with the same lead - John Dougherty’s guilty verdict. This third cycle started with a supply chain story. Wow. And I don’t think it’s a good wow either.

PhillyWatch 238 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Glad Hulkie was able to get the full deets on this. I saw Jason Martinez tweet out a short video of the studio with "10 at 10" on a monitor, then saw Kathy Orr reply to a tweeter who asked if this was regarding new graphics by saying "fun, fast format".

Jess 1110 Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 I don’t have functioning capture right now, but I actually remembered I had a license for Bandicam and set it up in time to get it. I’ve been recording the last hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyWatch 238 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I tuned into the Tubi stream for a replay and started around :30 past and by the time we got to around :50 past my partner said "wait, didn't they just do these stories?". So it looks like repetition is high. I'm guessing WPHL must be clobbering them in the ratings for them to totally upend the newscast.

All of the blocks have different content, and some have different top stories. So it's a mix. That being said I felt exhausted by the end of it all, so yeah. They must be getting fierce competition from WPHL (and this is probably the answer to the question of whether Nexstar goes in-house with their news - they clearly have a good thing going) Here's a compilation of the new format.

I know people have short attention spans, but this seems really rushed and unnecessary. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillynewslover 126 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 There was a "10 at 10" bug during last night's broadcast. So for only the debut edition did it still say "10:00 News". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judge for yourself. Wow. Interesting format. I will say the 10 minutes are good 10 minutes. But I don't see most people sticking through more than 1 or 2 segments considering the repetition. Are they hoping to train viewers to tune in at any point in the hour to get all the news the need without feeling compelled to start watching from the top of the show? If I were them, I'd have at least 2/6 of the 10 min blocks be substantially different so that viewers who do want to watch more than 10 min, actually get something out of it. But hey, if they find this works, good for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillynewslover 126 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) According to this article, Fox 29 is removing The Dr. Oz Show from the schedule. I think this could be a potential new schedule: 12p - Nick Cannon 1p - 25 Words or Less (x2) 2p - TMZ Live 3p - Judge Judy (x4) They could also do this but only air Judge Judy for an hour at 3p and debut a 4p newscast. But this is probably the easier way. Edited December 1, 2021 by phillynewslover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess 1110 Posted December 1, 2021 Author Share Posted December 1, 2021 At least for today they will be reairing the 9am hour of Good Day at 2pm. Just made the announcement at the top of that hour, and the time/temp was taken off of the bug to accomodate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyWatch 238 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I saw this thread yesterday and WISH I would’ve posted then, because I 100 percent thought “they could just re-air 9am Good Day to fill an hour”. Save for any Breaking News that might happen, it’s relatively evergreen for the day. It’s the only hour I DVR in case my boo or I want something goofy and light to watch in the evening. They could even air it after The Feed at Night for an extra hour of late night competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyWatch 238 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Starting today, they're giving the 6:30 run of Dish Nation the boot in favor of rotating local shows, starting off with "The Pulse with Bill Anderson", coming from a new retrofitted podcast studio. Checking Zap2It, other shows throughout the week look to be "The 215", a return (or reruns) of "The ClassH-room", "Kelly Drives" and "Props & Locks". All except "Props & Locks" also appear to be airing earlier in the day at 1pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No details or time slot from you or Anderson, just a semi-cryptic "hey, we're working on something" from the host. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
