The NBC Tower is located at 455 Cityfront Plaza and Studio 5 is located at 401 North Michigan Avenue in the heart of Chicago.
Oh my!! It's been 17 years since Darrien Chapman passed away?? Then Darryl Hawks in 2011?? A lot happen at 5 in that era. I miss both those gentlemen.
RIP to Floyd Kalber, John Coleman, Warner Saunders, Darrian Chapman, and Max Robinson.
Ron Magers, Linda Yu, Mark Suppelsa, Jerry Taft, Jim Tillman are retired.
Carol Marin, Marion Brooks, Brant Miller, Art Norman, Allison Rosati, and Rob Stafford is still at the station.
RIP 2 Dick Johnson, Warner Saunders & Jim Tilmon along with Jerry Taft
12:21-12:30 I'm still remembering this 10:00 newscast opening since 2013 before they changed the studio in 2017
Prior to Working at WMAQ, Max Robinson Worked on ABC's WORLD NEWS TONIGHT
Yes, he was.
I personally remember when NBC 4 (aka WRC-TV) had a similar opening in the late 1960s to "News 4 Washington". This, of course,
was when Neil Boggs and the late Glenn Rinker were reading the
news. When the Roman numerals stopped at VI, that meant it
was time for the six o'clock report; when the Roman numerals
stopped at XI, it was the eleven o'clock report. The animated clock
opening was interesting.
02:46, 03:26, two of my faves.
Thanks for posting that very first one, "
NBC News Night Report" - I was a child when I saw that but could still remember that opening animation! Great catch!
+CT I remember that opening. Very cool opening.
Voiceover Ed Hopkins and former Anchor Warner Saunders may they both rest in peace.
I notice this O&O, unlike other O&O stations, didn’t receive a personalized version of a certain 2008/9-2012 graphics package.
At 1:00 the late Max Robinson as an anchor. He anchored a long time in DC.
Jerry Taft as an anchorman, wow! I'm so used of him being a meteorologist.
WMAQ-TV, Chicago! This is the Channel 5 News at 5:00!
mark now works on rival WGN-TV in chicago and rob mayers at the rival WLS ABC 7
Mark is now retired as of Friday December 8th, 2017.
6:42, Same news background theme, same voiceover actor, reminds me of WAVY TV in 1995.
Same news music package. Same voice over artist.
WMAQ, the NBC affiliate in Chicago IL, is owned and operated by NBCUniversal. WMAQ is the sister station to Telemundo affiliate WSNS in Chicago.
I Remember John Coleman In KUSI News
From WMAQ Chicago this is NBC 5 news at 5
Carol Marin is probably the most famous local newscaster due to her walking out when Jerry Springer got the commentary portion at the end of a newscast.
Ron Magers also walked out due to the Jerry Springer controversy, to end up at WLS-TV (ABC-7) until his retirement.
This is NBC 5 news today in chicago
I liked the NBC Tower theme but not what they use today.
this is like the 1965 opening sequnce to WNBC-TV Sixth and Eleventh Hour News if you can find it ill give you props
I know this was posted 5 years ago, and the creator may never look at this, but, my GOD, people, half of the clips are at volume 1 and half at volume 100. It is impossible to manage the volume control to hear them all. Put a little effort into equalizing your volume levels, people!
This is NBC 5 news at 10
Formerly of WNBC-TV in NYC, now WMAQ-TV in Chicago.
+Robert FunderburkeJr At one time it was WNBQ before it was changed to WMAQ. They changed call letters in 1968 I believe.
ebf1957 1964
Hmm, the yellow 5 at the bottom appears to be in a different font than the white 5 in the logo at 10:08
10:31, the colors on the peacock logo, on the right, are mixed up. LOL. 💛🧡❤️💙💚💜😄😄😄
RON MAGERS AND LINDA YU AS FROM ABC 7!!!
Did they use the NBC grey-tan set during the N-logo years of the 70s?
WMAQ-TV newscast schedule...
*MONDAY-FRIDAY*
12noon, 4, 5, 6, and 10PM.
*WEEKENDS (SATURDAY & SUNDAY)*
5 and 10PM
"NBC Nightly News" @ 5:30PM every weeknight.
That _NBC News Night Report_ open was most likely used during the mid- to late '60s; that particular recording was from the Blizzard of 1967.
+iamnomad101 If I recall that opening was used for the 5 and 6 reports.
The "6" logo looks like the studio 6 logo.
This is NBC 5 news 6
This is NBC 5 news at noon
(7:26-7:37) “NBC 5 News” Live at 10 Intro (1998-2000)
(7:37-9:51) WMAQ-TV “NBC 5 News” Morning, 4:30, 5, 6, and 10.p.m. intros (2000-2005)
(9:51-11:13) WMAQ “NBC 5 News” Morning, Noon, 4:30, 5, 6, and 10.p.m. intros (2005-2012)
(11:13-12:31) “NBC 5 News” intros (2012-present)
Does any one have an opening from the short amount of time that WMAQ used the Battery news music package. It should have been from 1999-2000.
1:16-4:06. from October? 1985-September 1989
WMAQ-TV CHICAGO NBC 5 WSLS-TV TELEMUNDO CHICAGO
I found a wmaq open from 1949
There are also some opens from the late '70s that aren't included in this compilation using Michael Randall's "NewsCenter Theme."
I'm not entirely sure if the 1949 open is a legitimate one since I read somewhere that the clip it was from was used as a demo reel for the network execs in New York.
7:15 RIP headphone users
The motel 6 logo
Motel 6 in (1995)
is from abc 7 I mean
6:40 - Same music package and Anouncer as WAVY TV 10 In VA Beach...
Motel Six is owned by Accor
I'm back to ID a few more V/Os:
Del Clark: 0:05-0:24
Jim Hill (not the longtime L.A. sportscaster): 0:54-1:05
Ed Grennan: 12:33-12:36
It seems as if NBC was trying to institute a standard look across its O&Os during the mid-'90s. The news opens from one station could have elements of opens on another. In particular, WMAQ's 1994-95 open (from 6:29-6:41) has the ending animation from WNBC's open and logo animation from KCNC's, not to mention the similar logos (and that open wasn't transcribed in the captioning).
Jim Hill also did the open from 1:05-1:12.
WMAQ-TV NBC 5 Chicago
Callsign Meaning:
W - We
M - May
A - Answer
Q - Questions
Actually, WMAQ means:
W = We
M = Must
A = Ask
Q = Questions
@@bsteven885 You took the words right out of my mouth.
I support Jerry Springer and his right to free speech!
