    please stop changing the programming on the weekend nights…read more I watch your channel every single night from 9 o'clock till 1 AM. On Saturday night I am scrambling for something to watch before I go to bed. Older people who love to go to sleep to your comedies find it really challenging on Saturday night. The very shows that put us to sleep every night are missing. Take a survey if you want and most of us viewers, especially the older ones we like to watch the same thing every night. Also, I DESPISE THE NEW SHOW YOU PUT ON CALLED GHOSTS! Please take it off the air. I will be watching WTTW until you do. That show should be on another channel or at 3 AM. Please do not put it on before I go to bed. It's disconcerting, and I find it disgusting. I love your channel and I got everybody hooked on the nighttime line. Please move that golf show to some other time or channel. Please, please please please please please please please please? You're a loyal your, Carole CAT-LOTTA

I like King of Queens, Seinfeld, Family Guy. Weather stories on Saturday nights. Something worth watching. I like syndicated programming.

    Let's face it, Channel 2 hasn't been THE Ten O'Clock News for a while now, but then again, save for…read moreChicago Tonight, television journalism in Chicago isn't as rigorous as it was in the Jacobson/Kurtis days. Nonetheless, there are several reasons why you should tune into CBS 2 news every now and then: Number One is investigative reporter Pam Zekman, a munchkin of an elderly woman with thinning hair who has been at Channel 2 since color came to television. The sharpness of Pam's coordinated wardrobe is trumped only by the incisiveness of her reporting: she once simulated falling hardware from the 'L' structure by dropping a huge nail on a cantaloupe from 20 feet up. Number Two: Channel 2's salacious teasers and vapid reporting look splendid in 1080p. The station has taken a cue from crime television and each of their promos spots lure viewers to find out what happens with crystal clear video and dramatic narration. While many of CBS 2's stories are ridiculous--I can't count the number of times I've seen Dorothy Tucker do stories that involve a trip to Walgreen's--you've got a front row seat and a crystal clear view of Chicago's latest scams and deals. Number Three: Walter Jacobson's back. Walter offers his Perspective on Tuesday and Thursday nights, and he has yet to re-master the teleprompter or offer any real insight into current events. At this point, Walter is more Andy Rooney than Mike Royko. Number Four: Kristyn Hartmann. What planet is this woman from? Where did she learn to speak English with those remarkably unique inflections. It's all very dramatic and she's at her best during the post-segment banter with Rob Johnson. With the recent departure of Anne State, there's only one strangely hyper-emotive female reporter. And this one is perfect.

Well you can't with CBS 2 Chicago...because their phone number now belongs to Paramount+...and their reporters don't publish their email addresses...so I'm going to report my breaking news to one of their competitors instead...‍

I have never had difficulty finding street parking, finding the door to enter can be confusing and you have to ring a doorbell then wait for someone to buzz you inside. I LOOOOOVE the inside of JBTV, so much music history and acts have graced this place/stage. I mean they have a wheelchair signed by one of my hero's, Layne Staley. They usually have free drinks and some light snacks since you stand around for a bit while they get everything ready for the live recording that will eventually be aired on public television, so exciting!! Looking around at all the old music memorabilia is always a fun time. Jerry is the man, suuuuuper super friendly and has been doing this for as long as I can remember. If you ever get a chance to attend a live performance here do it!

    Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! This show was awesome. I always…read moredreamed of being on this show, and throwing a chair or going for a haymaker punch to only be held back by Steve, the bouncer. My favorite episodes generally involved the "Holiday Hell Feast" where they'd invite the midget Klan over with the midget Black Panthers and let them sort it out over mashed potatoes and gravy. The episodes where someone reveals themselves to be a transgender were always good television. Inevitably, people got their hair pulled or a chair thrown. I never made it to the taping, unfortunately. But it was always my favorite thing to watch on TV when I got to stay home sick from school. I heard they moved the taping to Connecticut. I guess there's better freakazoids out there to put on the show. But it wasn't tacky television. There was always the closing thought, where Jerry poignantly summarizes what we've learned and how we can all make the world a better place.

    Tasteless talk shows come and go, but one magazine declared this long-running daytime chatfest "the…read moreworst show in the history of television." Loaded with bleeped profanity and guests who aren't afraid to embarrass themselves on national TV. My daughter went to a few of the shows taping, and she said she laughed from the minute she walked in to the minute the show was over. No matter what the shows title was, I would always get a laugh when I would see his shows on tv. My daughter says that he was such a sweet gentleman. Always greeted his audience with respect. May he RIP
