I was lucky enough to get a tour of the WBZ studios in 2003-2004 - I was studying radio in college, and one of my instructors was a producer for their news radio division. I remember learning two things - 1) Gil Santos was quite pleasant, and 2) the studio that held the news desk was much smaller than it appears to be on TV.
WBZ-TV 4's "Eyewitness News Evening Edition" means 6:00 pm and "Nightcast" means 11:00 pm.
Westinghouse-era 4 was legendary. As was most of their other stations as they treated their stations so well. Not the greatest company by any means but a great TV station owner.
(except for WPCQ (now WCNC))
@@ndulmillenium Yeah, they neglected 36 so badly. Ted was this/close to making Charlotte home as well.
Not to mention that Westinghouse/Group W had what I still think is the best looking corporate font of its time👍
The three hosts of Tom Bergeron:
Hollywood Squares [1998-2004]
America's Funniest Home Videos [2001-15]
Dancing with the Stars [2015-19]
"Today's 4, a whole lot more" is my favorite jingle.
DANNY DARK: You're watching WBZ-TV Boston.
JOHN B. WELLS: Live from WBZ-TV 4, This is Eyewitness News.
WBZ-TV Channel 4 was an NBC station, now a CBS TV Station along with WBZ Radio
In this clip 15:14 to 15:21, It was WBZ-TV's CBS 4 News Live at 5:00pm Video Open From Late 2006.
HAPPY DIAMOND JUBILEE 75TH YEAR-LONG ANNIVERSARY WBZ-TV 4 [NBC now CBS]; NEW ENGLAND AND BOSTON'S FIRST TELEVISION STATION!
The "CBS 4 News" titling was short lived around the period of 2002-2004. The network realized that all the Group W stations they inherited were more oriented to call sign, KDKA, KPIX, and WBZ more so. These stations had rich histories in their respective markets being the first tv stations in those cities to sign on. KDKA and WBZ also had powerhouse radio stations as well. WBZ reverted back to 'WBZ News" after "CBS 4 News" was really not well received and the station was mired in third place in many time periods, early evening especially. Some of the openings and theme music after WBZ transitioned to CBS were quite horrific, "News 4 New England"(circa 1997) being perhaps the worst. Now WBZ uses the same CBS branding and theme music (Enforcer by Frank Gari) as all the other network o&o's. I miss the old days of WBZ when they were "The One 4 All" and "Today's 4." Highly recommend checking out some of the vintage 'BZ campaigns as a Group W station availableto view here on CZcams. They are real classics!
My favorite TV show is "Cheers" on NBC.
Thanks for sending Dawn H. Back in her hometown of Chicago which she's on Fox 32 Chicago WFLD-TV
"The Six Million Dollar Man" starring Lee Majors and "The Bionic Woman" starring Lindsay Wagner are left in 1978.
I met Virginia Cha in San Diego! She now works at KGTV, she was very kind and I had a photo with her at a media student conference SDSU. Also when I was visiting Massachusetts, WBZ was covering a local story in the area and the cameraman was nice enough to let me inside the news van and hold the microphone to do a photo op 😄Bill Shields was working on a story in another vehicle. 👍
Bill Shields was (is he still there?) around for a long time!!
@@randyc4084 according to their website, he is still with WBZ
WBZ 4 News is now CBS 4 News.
As the years rolled on the openings got flashier and flashier. And less honest and revealing.
9:13-11:03 and 11:47-13:27 FTW
Traffic and weather together on the 3's with the Boston's NewsRadio 1030.
"4Today" is a shape of the Columbia Pictures Television sunburst logo from the 70's through the early 80's.
Just after the closing credits of your favorite TV shows from the past.
In 1982, Columbia Pictures Television torch lady's first appearance replacing the sunburst logo.
WBZ; Boston's home for Brooke Shields, the "Blue Lagoon" teen beauty that was the darling daughter of _The Dan Hedaya Show_ in 1982! 😍

Don’t even remember Virginia Cha! Joe Shortsleeve is now on Bloomberg Business Radio Boston with Kim Kerrigan. Never knew she was on ch 4, must have been for a very short time
WBZ WAS AN NBC AFFILIATE FOR OVER 40 YEARS, UNTIL A SITCOM MISTAKE BY GENE WILDER CAUSED THE STATION TO MOVE TO CBS IN 1995, WHERE IT HAS STAYED FOR OVER 25 YEARS.

9:55 why is Bob Neumeier in the same intro with Liz/Jack/Bruce? Wasn't Bob Lobel part of that team?
Maybe Lobel had the day off that day.
Bob Neumieier was supposed to be Bob Lobel’s replacement, I believe, but I don’t think he was there for a long time.
No clips of Shelby Scott, Don Kent, Jack Chase or Tom Ellis!!! Some of the Eyewitness News intros before this time were more memorable, can’t believe how bad most of these were in comparison to NewsCenter 5 or even Ch 56 10 o’clock news intros. The current CBS4 intros they are using are actually quite good
Surprised how far back they abandoned “Eyewitness News”. And I miss “Almanac”; wbz signed on about 6:40AM, and Almanac, with a rooster logo, was 6:45-6:59 with jack chase & don Kent. Jack chase had a cup of coffee in front of him. Don Kent always started the weather with “good morning everyone “ and jack always closed with “so long and make it a good day”
I think Lisa Hughes is the only person in the video still at WBZ!
Lisa, David, Ken, & Paula are all still there as of date 🙂

Liz walker,Bruce schwoegler, Bob lobel, and as of 2015 jack williams are all gone from wbz-tv now.
Florence Chestnut Where are they now?
Katheryne Koelker Liz Walker is a pastor,Jack Williams lives out in Las Vegas now,Bob Lobel has iusses with walking now,and Bruce Schwoegler I'm not sure what he is up to these days.
IIRC Liz Walker basically left of her own accord to spend more time with her family and become a minister. Bruce Schwoegler was pushed out, I don’t know why, Bob Lobel was pushed out I think. jack williams, they tried to replace him 2-3 times with young hunky looking anchors but they didn’t do well with the audience so they kept having to bring jack back as the primary anchor.

A shame that Rhode Island doesn't get channel 4, 5 or 7.
When did THAT come about?!?! I recall in the late 1990s, living in Pawtucket, that we were able to get all the Boston channels as well(except channel 68).
SuperPat88 Because we didn't have it on cable. We had it on antenna but that was it
SuperPat88 Also. I live in Pawtucket. We got WLVI-56 (WB) for a while and that is how I got into Pokemon before they got rid of that also.
+Goldenrod636 Why is that a shame? Rhode Island has their own equivalents of 4, 5, and 7: 6, 10, and 12.
But we didn't have an equivalent of the WB which is what I watched growing up. By the time CW came around, the WB was pretty much dead.

After the 80s and mid 90s, and CBS taking over channel 4, things went downhill. Fast music, not star news anchors, just boring intros and boring forgettable anchors. I"m glad I left MA in 91.
Sean Mooney and Joe Shirtsleeve are the bullies of Jack Williams on WBZ
