That fit the station well IMO. Blink twice and without the website attached, I'd be confusing them for KCBS out in Los Angeles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krz Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Recently my “my tv” channel became “Fox 4 More”, is this happening to anyone else? Excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, that's CBS' trend with their O&O's (stations CBS both owns and operates); they all share the same graphics package and have pretty similar, if not identical, logos. CBS has O&Os in NYC, LA, Chicago, SF, Sacramento, Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Philly, Boston, Baltimore, Dallas, Detroit, Denver, and Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least from the mid-70s on, the CBS 2s in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago all had distinct logos from each other, although WBBM (Chicago) used a different logo. Before then, and just like today, the Big Three did used standardization for their O&O stations--Fox just upped the game, by branding their stations with "Fox xx" right since the beginning of their network. This was the "CBS/Channel 2" branding used on the O&Os in the mid-60s... This was also used in the mid-70s on both WCBS and then-KNXT. This was WBBM's logo from the mid-70s until the late 80s.

RyanMcD29 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 According to a college friend of mine who now works there, it looks like NBC Boston is *already* coming out with a new logo even though the station's just one year old Twitter: @RyanMcD29 // College Crosse: Where I write, chat, and infograph lacrosse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pharos04 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Well at least they're using the channel number. "NBC Boston" felt really lazy. Feels like it fits in with 4, 5, 7, and 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigFiz21 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 The WJZ logo change is finally settling in. I noticed the reporters got jackets & mics last week and their social media pages changed their profile pics some days later. Today, the new logo finally made it on screen during the newscasts. The graphics, however, stay the same for now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCalderwood Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Continuing with the Baltimore theme from the previous post, today WMAR-TV in Baltimore introduced the first major overhaul of their look since 2002. Somewhat noteworthy, since they are Maryland's oldest broadcast TV station. Old logo: New logo: HUGE upgrade in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the faux-back approach they took with the new "2", taking a note from this legendary, long-lasting logo: I thought of that too . . . and I'm old enough to remember that version. The new one doesn't loop quite as far around (and isn't split, of course), so fauxback is a good description.

I agree. The earlier 90’s version was much bolder... and more colorful: Also used to love WPIX’s look. They showed great movies on weekend afternoons.

MadmanLA Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Dallas' ABC station, WFAA, is set a debut a logo soon; I found this T-shirt on their Facebook page...really nice touch, and something you kinda rarely see with TV stations.
