What's up with all these labeling failures lately?  I can't remember seeing this many map bloopers in such a short period of time. :unsure:

i smell new graphics soon.  :P well, for the maps anyway.

hopefully not though, otherwise the relaunch in the spring (is that still happening?) won't be so much of a relaunch.

I didn't realize there was going to be a relaunch. :unsure: (Although it sure sounds like TWC needs one. <_<)

For the Driveway Heat ad tag, it wanted me, an Arizona resident, to go to a Walgreens in Savannah, Georgia. The LFs still are Phoenix, at least.

For some reason, for the past couple of hours on YWT, the LDLs at the top and bottom of the hour have been cueing immediately, instead of the normal 1 minute delay.

This seems to be normal now for the new ldl.

For a brief second before going to break at 5:05pm, they showed a WV weekly planner graphic.

Whoa, after the LF... it looks like the video wall popped up, with TWC [HD] in the middle of it. After about 15 seconds, it goes to another 20 seconds of Trammell.

Nope, that was WV. WN's weekly planner opener has lowercase letters.

Indeed it is. Sorry I didn't reply, and thanks for the screenshot. I caught a clip of it in the E.L.
