WDIV studio

Meteorologist Bryan Schuerman posted a photo on his Facebook a few days ago and it was the local 4 News desk in front of a green screen. Looks like a temporary studio? Is wdiv redoing their permanent studio? Surprising if they are as it isn’t that old?

Weekend newscasts

Has anybody noticed the lack in quality of weekend newscasts in metro Detroit? Has it always been this bad? They are almost unwatchable. It is completely regurgitated news from the week with 0-1 possible live reports and talent that hasn’t been in the market for 5 minutes. I understand they have to ...

The 6 o clock was a normal full newscast. It was just the 7pm that was like that.

7pm news Saturday WXYZ

Did anybody catch the 7pm news last night 7/1 on WXYZ? It was 5 minutes of headlines and 2 minutes of weather then about 8 pre recorded stories that were part of newscasts earlier in the week played back to back without the anchor throwing to any of them then the anchor closed the show and that was ...

WXYZ anchors out?

I have noticed lately when one of the anchors is out for the day at WXYZ nobody fills in from the other newscasts? For example the 5pm today is Brian Abel alone cause Glenda Lewis is out. However at 6pm Dave and Carolyn will both be on the desk. Why don’t one of them help anchor the 5 so Abel isn’t ...

Weekend Evening News

Will Detroit ever get a weekend 5pm newscast? So many of the top markets have a weekend 5pm. Considering a lot of the time sports does go until 6pm for some of the year, but also a lot of the times shows that don’t matter are playing in the 5pm slot. Would they ever consider a 5pm weekend newscast a...

Re: 2023 predictions

WDIV- New hires Ron Hilliard and Ashley Baracy take over live in the D and Tati gets shown the door. I think They will rotate weather for the noon and possibly 4pm newscasts so Brandon doesn't have to stay for the noon. And then they will help fill in other slots on the weekdays. I see Gross hanging...

Karen Drew Lost Luggage!

So local 4 did a story about how Karen Drew was going down to Florida and how her bag was lost for 3 days. Then inside edition picked it up nationally! As if everyone isn't having travel issues right now trying to actually get home to loved ones over the holiday. Sorry your flight was delayed for yo...

Re: Hmmm,is the news drought at CBS62 about to come to an end?

Watched detroit news now tonight. Actually not that awful with Shaina Humphries anchoring. I think cbs news Detroit is being sorely underestimated and 2,4,7 better hold on tight. WXYZ studio is so old and outdated its hard to even watch. Local 4 has to many personalities that think they are all that...

Re: 4 Adds A Couple of Weather People

I see them putting both as co-hosts of Live in the D and showing Tati the door? And then both would fill in for weather spots when needed.

WXYZ needs a new studio

Is it just me or does WXYZ studio just look so old and unappealing lately. I guess fox 2’s weirdly shaped desk isn’t much better but at least updated. It seems like 4 is the only station with a somewhat decent studio. We will see what cbs 62 does with there’s.
