Tribune’s KTVI-TV took the wraps off its new studio this week, just in time for sweeps. The set, designed by Broadcast Design International, includes two large monitor walls, backlit paneling and stonework. “We have two television stations to operate and we’re doing 80 hours of local news a week. There’s an awful lot more than […]
Regis Philbin is guest hosting “The Late Late Show” this week from New York, as the show continues to cycle through hosts after Craig Ferguson’s departure in December. While the other hosts have used the shows main Los Angeles digs, Philbin is hosting his stint from Studio 57 at the CBS Broadcast Center, which is […]
Hearst‘s WCVB-TV, the ABC affiliate in Boston, has updated its set with a new video wall — mirroring a change made less than a year ago elsewhere on the set. The station added a 6 × 2 flat panel monitor wall to its weather center, replacing an icy blue branded dura background. Last March, the station traded […]
WTIC-TV, the Tribune owned Fox affiliate in Hartford, Conn., debuted a new home this week that blends its network’s signature bold colors into the set design.

WFSB-TV, Meredith‘s CBS affiliate in Hartford, Conn., is offering up previews of its new set. The set, which is dominated with backlit walls with metallic framework, also includes a 3 × 3 monitor wall behind the anchor desk. The anchor desk, meanwhile, is internally lit and also includes two white internally lit bands at the top and […]
YouTube hosted a special live stream featuring YouTube creators Bethany Mota, GloZell Green and Hank Green interviewing President Obama from “sets” that resembled something between a really bad preschool play and adult movie set. You’ll notice the word “sets” appears in quotation marks (read: air quotes) throughout this article, because they barely qualify for that distinction. […]
CNN‘s morning offering “New Day” is using an existing area of its set as the “CNN Money Center.” The area, which is also used as a one-on-one interview area, is now equipped with a glass-topped pod. The “windows” on the three walls behind are now used to display financial data, branded graphics and topical graphics […]
ABC‘s “The View” welcomed back cohost Whoopi Goldberg this week and, because she is still recovering from back surgery, swapped out its normal stylish chairs for ugly, but apparently back-friendly office-style chairs. The high backed black chairs, which also feature wheels, were pulled up around the show’s normal table. The next day, Goldberg was still […]
Following the relocation of HLN to Studio 7 in Atlanta, CNN has created a rather weak knockoff of the “New Day” set in HLN’s old space. The space, which has been updated to have faux brick walls, bookshelves and faux windows much like its New York City counterpart, is used for the weekend editions of “New Day” […]
“The Rundown with Jose Diaz-Balart” is borrowing the studio of “Meet the Press,” while Diaz-Balart is in Washington for the State of the Union coverage. The show is only using the smaller glass table, with a divider wall added to block the larger desk. Graphics with MSNBC’s State of the Union branding adorn the set. […]
