CBS streamer launches its version of ‘Mornings’ broadcast from Studio 47

CBS News’ free, ad-supported streaming television offering has launched an updated block of morning news programming.

The show, which is called “CBS News 24/7 Mornings,” launched the week of Dec. 1, 2025, and is produced from Studio 47 at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York.

Borrowing part of its name from the streamer’s branding, CBS News 24/7, the show takes the other part from “CBS Mornings,” CBS’s morning news program that airs on the linear network.

It is distinct from the now-canceled “CBS News Mornings Plus,” a 60-minute extension of the network’s morning show that streamed on CBS News 24/7 and aired on CBS stations from 9 to 10 a.m. Eastern.

“CBS News 24/7 Mornings” airs from 9 to 11 a.m., giving it a two-hour runtime. Vladimir Duthiers, a regular on “CBS Mornings,” anchored the broadcast’s debut edition. The “Plus” version featured “CBS Mornings” primary co-anchor Tony Dokupil and Adriana Diaz, who also appears regularly on the morning franchise.

“CBS Mornings 24/7” leverages Studio 47’s large LED volume combined with virtual set extensions that replicate the slatted wood, an element that has become prominent on both real sets and VSEs across the network and its owned stations.

Also included is whitewashed exposed brick, an element that appeared during in Studio 1515 in Times Square that “CBS Mornings” used prior to moving back to the broadcast center in September 2025.

The VSE for the 24/7 version of the show also features a simulated artistic installation comprising nine squares, each depicting a portion of the network’s iconic logo. There are also virtual Edison bulb pendants placed within the virtual space, while the floor LED tiles depict a traditional wood-toned floor.

Like “CBS Evening News,” which broadcasts from the same LED volume, the VSEs also feature simulated video walls that can be filled with topical graphics and video, adding to the illusion that the space has more structural elements than it actually does.

The broadcast also makes use of a similar virtual layout within the VSEs as “Evening,” including the placement of a simulated video wall camera right that often appears in a cross-shot style view that includes the anchor desk.

The VSEs used here are more muted than the ones used by “CBS Mornings” and lack the golden glow and brighter, purer whites used in Studio 57. The exposed brick has a more off-white or gray feel, while the wood tones are more in the gray-brown part of the spectrum as opposed to some of the warmer depictions the network uses elsewhere, including on “Evening.”

Contrasting with this more muted palette are bold blue and yellow graphics that offer a slightly different take on the deconstructed eye motif CBS first started using back in 2020.

For this look, the graphics use a slightly glassy look for portions of the eye logo. Like many of the network’s other looks, select shapes do have a prominent beveled edge while gradients are used to add texture.

In many ways, the design has similarities to the “Evening News” package that was introduced when that broadcast revamped in January 2025, though it does eschew the radial gradient and microdot elements in that look.

The blue is also notably lighter for “CBS News 24/7 Mornings” and, while “Evening” does have some gold accents, the color is used much more prominently on the streaming version.
