So now that Ed Curran is back at 11am, are they potentially looking for another hire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t they already have 6 meteorologists? I took this as Ed and Robb will be splitting weather duties at 11am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 4712 Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Yeah, I'm totally taking this as Bannon giving up the 11, and having the weekenders split the week. Hell, why not recast the whole 11am as a newsroom-anchored vehicle for Brad Edwards, of Streaming with Brad fame?

Maybe Ellis Monday-Wednesday and Curran Thursday-Friday. I agree, hopefully Edwards is named the anchor.

R.R. 51 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Jim did great as interim 11am anchor years back! So he’s a perfect match! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 4712 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 First Linda MacLennan, back in the fall, and now some of these familiar faces. We're officially living in a timeline where WBBM has a decent relationship with some former on-air talent, and I never thought I'd see the day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey 393 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Very nice tribute! Side note: It amazes me that even people who work in TV sometimes shoot vertical videos with their phones for TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbs2worksforyou 32 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Walked past the channel 2 studio today. They had black curtains down around all of the windows. I remember reading how they were going to begin reusing the street-level studio after the jumbotron was repaired. Does anyone know if they started building out the studio?

They had not started work the last time (about 2 weeks ago) I walked by the studio. I do know that it was been completely cleaned out so it's ready for work to begin. The studio is big enough for more than just a weather center, so I'm hoping they really take advantage of the space.

Agree! Really hope they build out a nice new set to use up all that great space and keep it functional for some versatility in shots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
