I wonder what's the theme of that WDIV News 4 at 6:00 Open? It's not even on SouthernMedia's News Music Search Archive Database

[ntropolis]

@wtvg1 Sounds like the WDIV 1984 theme

[WDJBPhilly4]

Cool. I like the WPVI open.

WBMG open 1:11

[wtvg1]

@ntropolis ok. I wasn't sure about it. But thanks.

Look closely, because that WDIV open is another example of TVbD's inability to properly match new additions to the old. Jac LeGoff animates differently. Some of the frames are not in the same positions between anchors. There are also slight differences in the small caps of the text. Compared to the 1984 11pm open the last anchor moves out differently. Kinda standard quirks of heavily edited TVbD opens (KPRC 1980s, WTOL, WBRZ).

@raymieX WBMG and KTSP same era from my childhood days baby

[raymieX]

That WBMG open smacks of KTSP from this era. Now that I realize it, it's an affiliate package!

And you made my jaw drop with that KPNX open there.
