Re: Emmy award winning director departs 25-66
This is already happening as 46 is resorting to more Ad Council and generic Shea Chevrolet commercials.

Re: TV5 Loses a Meteorologist
He's leaving his contract a little earlier than expected as the contract was to run to the end of the year. Getting demoted to being second banana to the afternoon news rehash "Look At Me, I'm Colette!" Show was probably the last straw for him.

Re: Childrens Programming Violations
Kids Click didn't have any local traffic. It was a direct feed from HQ. There is an aircheck from February 5, 2018 that features some choice words on signs from Chime pictures of the Eagles winning the Super Bowl.

Cars 108 Mornings
Yet another new morning show has started on Cars 108. This time, it is Lisa Marie paired up with Nathan "JJ Shades" Reed, formerly running the Cox cluster in Tampa.

Re: More News on TV5
Colette's morning show phoniness doesn't work in the afternoon. Her eyerolling, overenthusiastic reaction to high school football was so over the top proclaiming that Mid-Michigan has the best athletes in the state. The newscast has no identity, as they ran last week's football plays of the week ree...

Re: More News on TV5
Are they going with the 12:00 rehash? The last time they attempted news at 4, it was Bill Walsh just reusing the 12:00 scripts.

Re: Abc12 breaking point
This weekend has provided some of the worst newscasts ever. The morning newscasts consisted of a taped weather segment from Wisconsin while a storm was happening in the area. There was no sign of any live radar, as the storm was occurring. They would be better off just running informercials.

Re: Abc12 breaking point
Add to that 2 of their biggest and longest ad clients reducing their ad buys and eventually leaving, and they have a mess on their hands.

Local4+
It looks like 4 is looking to cut into the local news ratings by adding an exclusive additional hour in the mornings on their digital Local4+ TV app. Also, it sounds like Jason Carr is getting his Facebook show moved to Local4+ per his social media postings.

12's Lack Of Closed Captioning
With the massive losses, apparently the person in charge of closed captioning was laid off as well. 12's running a back to back low grade paid program for a spine doctor without closed captioning. This would never happen with the old owners. The channel looks worse than the Alpena ABC station.

It had a Goodrich spin to it. Good typical fluff piece from TV-5.

It's as if Meredith is still running things. It is quite tacky and way too soon for a story like this.

Re: Elisse Ramey to 5
Why is she screaming during the newscast? Also, Gray has removed the 10:00 replays, so she basically will be barely seen in that hour.

Re: What's going on at ABC12?
What needs to be done differently at 12? They run the market and will continue until Gray makes any changes at 5. 25/66 are just a blip these days.
