tylerSC 43 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 WBTV has a nice graphics package, which may be a modified Raycom style. And recently the Gray talk shows on WBTV and WHNS have identical new graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WBTV historically has had the nicest graphics package since the (Jefferson) Lincoln days & were always a one off from the rest of the group even after the Raycom acquisition and then the Gray acquisition.

Axiom81 58 Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 This is a very clean look, it's giving me a bit of Morgan Murphy Media Graphics vibe, but on a more simplified scale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be an excellent large-market Gray package going forward, but is it too big for a market like Lake Charles, Twin Falls, Dothan or Binghamton? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 2949 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I'm getting a Sinclair vibe with the lower thirds. The font is a little more refined than the "Din" Sinclair uses, and the "LNL" is a dead ringer for the "TND" they use for The National Desk.

Not impressed with the boring graphics either. It sounds like an insurance company, Lincoln National Life. I said the same thing when Sinclair went to Curves that I'm going to say here. Sinclair has that overly serious sounding music. That's not who they are. The old Stephen Arnold upbeat theme songs fit them much better. Same thing going on here. Gray is a second or third rate broadcaster. Stay in your lane. This is not an insult, it's just who they are. Have something that better fits you and your viewership.

Staggered launch..not sure why Gray did it this way, but looks promising. I haven't been a fan of the logo in a LONG time. Wish they would have brought this one back.

It’s timeless. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would that logo fit well with modern graphics? I agree it should be brought back. I know the change from the Raycom-era logo was a positive, but that would be another step upward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their current logo is a nod to the last one they had under Jefferson-Pilot's ownership prior to Raycom's purchase (albeit is not quite the same): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current logo is still better than this one IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldenShine9 1375 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) Having that WANF-esque font in the WCSC logo under the classic "5" would make for quite a nice logo. Edited March 15 by GoldenShine9 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
