Memphis & Channel 3. WREG-TV Channel 3. Serving The Mid-South Since 1956. (1987-1988).

I worked at WREG from 1989 to 1995. This reel brings back a lot of memories.

Phew! I'm glad you reuploaded this. I got nervous when I couldn't find it!

15:35 - MEMPHIS & CHANNEL 3

WREG-TV Channel 3. A New York Times Company Station.

These are not all of WREG's news opens. Missing are the Hello News open and another version of the NewsChannel with different music.

WREG-TV News Channel 3. Your 21st Century Starts Here. A New York Times Company Station.

0:00 - “Hello Memphis. Channel 3 Loves You.” (WREG-TV Memphis).

“Your 21st Century Starts Here!”

13:19 - 13:27 I wonder why they didn't include the Live @ 9 logo in the new open.

For the 1988-92 opens: the BGM replacement happens at 3:57. The 1993-97 opens had a voiceover change sometime late in the run. The only open after the voiceover change that was posted was at 5:20. 1998-2005 opens had a BGM change around 2001-02; the first open that was posted was at 7:15.

KREG-TV news opens

Nexstar: It’s 10 o clock do u know where your children are? Fox Corporation: hold my beer

Would you even consider combining kyndle hewett and S BEN’s WKRN-TV opens considering WKRN just got the new graphics that first debuted on WJHL-TV?

While we're on the subject of the Memphis market in general, we now await the complete compliment of the current WHBQ-TV news opens, which soon will be uploaded by Studio 31 Media Archive (formerly dma37dude). Memphis' Fox 13 got the new graphics during the week of April 26, 2021.

Is it just me, or is Todd Demers slowly packing on more weight every year? I'm just sayin'...

Todd has always been a big guy. No disputing his popularity in Memphis; he’s been on the morning show at Channel 3 for 36 years and he’ll likely be there as long as he wants to keep working. Something that has changed over the last 20 years? WREG’s dominance in the ratings. For decades, they were a distant second to Channel 5, but since they hired Bruce Moore as news director, WREG has ruled the roost and Demers’ popularity in the morning is a big part of that success

Can you do WKRN

Would you even consider doing a tag team of WXYZ and WMYD? WMYD (previously WXON and WDWB) had newscasts/news cut ins predating common ownership with WXYZ-TV, and it may gain new newscasts following the loss of the MyNetworkTV affiliation, so I was wondering if you could consider doing WMYD in Detroit, and tag-team WXYZ-TV with it, stitching three separate WXYZ compilations together.
