24994J 3,502 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Discovered just now, weeknight meteorologist Duffy Atkins is one of those being let go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spring Rubber 312 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Looks like 6pm on New Year's Eve is the end of the line for CLTV. That's when the program guide lists SIGN OFF for the channel. Politics Tonight will be the final show at 5:30pm. Kind of a shame; I was hoping they would end with a normal newscast. Instead, the final newscast will be at 2:30pm. I set a DVR recording for both. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CircleSeven 1,305 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Well, at least there's cake.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
speed053 21 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 That cake looks good. Just watched the final newscast today, and I'm going to miss CLTV. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheRolyPoly 1,637 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 The final half-hour of CLTV's existence has started. By the time many of you will read this, the channel will be no more. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spring Rubber 312 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Here we go, time for the end of an era. I still have fond memories of CLTV from the 90s during my childhood. :( Wow, they cut Paul off mid-sentence, at least on Xfinity, and went to sign-off. Not sure if it's the same for everyone. How embarrassing. Not a pretty send-off at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How embarrassing. Not a pretty send-off at all. It's unfortunate, but also... the reality now. Local cable news channels don't care about signing off with traditional and custom farewells anymore.

CircleSeven 1,305 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) CLTV dropped this vid of veteran reporter Marcella Raymond signing-off on one of its last newscasts. Was this the 2:30pm show? Edited January 1, 2020 by CircleSeven Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Was this the 2:30pm show? Had they repuposed the old WGN set? Also, I like that they plugged High Velocity V.1 in the final newscast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

24994J 3,502 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 And after 27 years, meteorologist Tim McGill is out, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CircleSeven 1,305 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Konrad did a "small" tribute to McGill on the morning show yesterday (1/7). I'm surprised the higher ups at Nexstar would allow this. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
