  • I didn't know TV could still be this much fun.

  • 5 sub channels! Nice.

  • that was cool.

    seeing them hit the main switch live was interesting, something not seen on live tv.

  • qq arrecho un boton pueda apagar 50años de tv!!!

  • It actually turns out that WCIU is serving as a "nightlight" and is using WMME 23's analog transmitter to simulcast WCIU to those few who still havent switched. They are also simulcasting WGN's 9:00pm newscast, and a few of WMAQ5's newscasts throughout the day.

  • Is it a nightlight video?

  • Post a YouTube video.
