A little creepy when they first cut to the commercials there is just a few frames of the end of another commercial -- "Make the Moment Sparkle", with a shot of the Twin Towers.
It's really good to see Emery King again. Channel 4 News just isn't the same without him anchoring the news with Ruth Spencer anymore. WDIV-TV should have renewed his contract. Rhonda Walker is a good anchor, but there is no replacement for Emery King.
It was really all one theme that they started using in 1988, but there were different cuts used at different times between then and 1997 when they went to Local First News.
"Five Lions you'll see in the Pro Bowl"...ahh if it were only 1991 again :-) ... great video btw. I always liked Emery King--shame the way his tenue ended.
Yeah cutbacks at GM nothing new But.... at least they will be hiring at 14 an hr now cause they are hiring again now

don't worry too much about Emery King... he may have been pushed out by WDIV, but he's now the communications director for Detroit Medical Center.

You can tell WDIV is an NBC station when this newscast came on It kinda felt like the intro for Dateline NBC

I think they used this theme for "NightBeat" starting in 1989.

Did they change the theme by then, or did WDIV create a theme just for the Nightbeat?
