The graphics are very nice, but the new FX set still doesn't do it for me.

G.O. is annoying me....They're copying many of the elements that Hothaus has created.

I liked in when it used to say the "9" and the helicopter turning

wttg fox 5 midday is at 11am

[anchorman87]

there is only one midday. it is at 12! i used to think the 'stupid american's sterotype was just a sterotype, but if they get confused with when midday is, maybe they are...

Very nice graphics!

[6news]

dude, they say 'midday at noon' to A) tell you what time it is and B) avoid confusion (i.e. WCNC-TV's Midday News airs at 11:00 AM)...

[anchorman87]

did he say 'Miday at noon'. is that opposed to 'miday at 2pm'.

stupid americans

IT"S NOT a ripoff "Hothouse" (Hothaus), they were done by Giant Octopus, don't beleive me, check out their website giantoctopus(dot)com

They're still copying many of the same elementsas Hothaus...Hothaus was the first one to use the oval-swooshes around the logos, and the words with the letters that seem to slowly spread appart, as well as the fast moving footage in the background, and the shiny bar of light that's seen unveiling the words "Covering The Carolinas" Granted G.O. is using these in good & creative ways, they're still emulating Hothaus so much that they don't even have their own distinct style.
