[radiodj1520]

I Believe This Was A Video Clip Of WCVB-TV's Newscenter 5 At 11 Video Open From Friday Night, June 27, 2008.

any know who is the composer of the tease music at the beginning? I have reason to believe its by Killer Tracks, but can't confirm or find a cut of it anywhere. any info would be appreciated!!!

[tayloroux]

i feel like they could have something cool with an arrow going on in their graphics... since there is an arrow incorporated into their logo. kind of like WGN used to do? except it would make more sense because they have an arrow.

Has any noticed that they no longer use the hd, id and lower thirds? what gives>?

[redsoxguy617]

the begening is the same as NECN

[ConnorCrosbyPrdctns]

The new intro is so much better, go check it out!

[starlite221]

at wcvb we copy and imitate(fox 25) more often than any other station in boston with no shame of course.

[TaylorMMontgomery]

GOD I hate the hearst theme. It sounds like any other news music. blahhhh

[ktrkhoustonfan]

They have the worse graphics ever.

[TaylorMMontgomery]

agree.

[JTCPingas09]

wow the intro is so similar to kmbc

[rmartin6451]

What day was this open?

[itlaiaboy514]

I believe June 30th , if i'm not mistaken.

WYFF in Greenville will be the next Hearst station to go HD.

[hkfreak]

There is a chance that the following may be:

WYFF

WXII

KOAT

...and then maybe WPBF or KITV. I don't know about WBAL or WAPT or WISN.

[NewEnglandWeather]

what about WMUR?

[hkfreak]

I think Hearst will take their time with Manchester. It's part of the Boston DMA, so technically, it's not that important. I believe It should be split from Boston to create a Manchester-Nashua-Derry Market. Then again, it's my opinion. But Hearst will (eventually) have all their stations in HD.

[rmartin6451]

My ABC Station in Indianapolis is in HD!

[megamanfan3]

This marks the 2nd Herst TV station to go totally HD that I witnessed. (The first being WTAE.)

[hkfreak]

Although you WITNESSED Pittsburgh's Hearst first, CHRONOLOGICALLY, WCVB was second, behind KCRA in Sacramento. Then KMBC is 3rd, WESH, and then WTAE.

[ptb267ii]

KCRA though now uses somewhat of the graphics that WESH-TV has which are glossy, but they borrow the talent opens from WBBM-TV in Chicago.

[pushhx31]

i dont know what one i like better, newscenter 5 or channel 7.. fox just sucks. haha we dont hav HD so newscenter 5 looks like crap lol(:

[hkfreak]

OH NO, wayyy different...seriously. We have KCRA's "turntable" compared to this. You're looking for Kansas City and KMBC.

[OTownNews]

Actually, WCVB premiered in HD first, then WESH. If anything, WESH is mirroring them. But in our own way.

[richardsrfs25]

wcvb 5 does such a beautiful job at telling their viewers that they really do give a shit

best regards to the people thank make wcvb come alive every night at 11

[CCProductionsTV]

I love WCVB Newscenter 5, I wish I could get their music!

[parodypictures90]

Same here- The updated theme works well for Boston.

[CCProductionsTV]

they are probably the same company (Hearst-Argyle) so they have the same thing.

[truedanielg]

I love the beefed up version of the hearst-argyle theme!! Love the tease music. Graphics great as well.

[hookem2003]

gotta love the tease and the open
