WBTV went onto the air in 1949 which made it the very first television station in the Carolinas and the 13th station in the United States. WBTV is an an affiliate of CBS and so they have all the CBS television shows. For news, it's mostly been Norah O'Donnell when she's not on break. I'll miss her when she steps away from the anchor desk. WBTV does broadcast some of the CBS programming including Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage that took over for Young Sheldon and Blue Bloods for Tom Selleck's moustache. I don't watch football or baseball so I skip over those when CBS starts with the sports programming. [Review 2554 of 2024 - 4006 in North Carolina - 23565 overall]

I remain loyal. recent coverage has declined. very little sports coverage. too much weather multiple times during the broadcast time. you frequently fail to report the high and low temp/air temp for the day you dwell on "feels like" and forecast while not reporting on actual almanac stats. also white reporters have become the minority. I hate to say this, but spectrum news is now better

Sometimes, the news shows seem to try so hard to be "different" and "hip" and "young" that it feels really contrived; however, when it works, it really works. The folks on the various local news shows have great chemistry, and it can be fun to observe their interactions. Sometimes, though, their antics become the focus of the program, and not the news or the commentary. I go back and forth. It's kind of like a train wreck, though, in that I can't stop watching. I'll watch the local news programs just so I can debate whether or not it's awful or funny or fun or horrid...and I've been watching it for about a year now, debating. I guess what they are doing is working, though, as I"d never deign to watch local news programming anywhere else. I hope somebody else reviews these guys, as I'd like to hear what you think...

It's…read moreone of the few stations I can actually name some anchors & other local "celebrities" that host some of the local shows. The Edge is a show hosted by Brotha Fred from 96.1 & the beautiful Morgan Fogarty. It's a news show with a young, humorous flair to it. Other than their crazy weatherman, the normal newscast isn't anything special & I tune in to a couple other stations for the local news.

You may have seen it while channel surfing if you have Time Warner Cable (if you don't then you don't get it) and probably saw some lunatic preaching so you kept moving right along. Next time you're gonna sit in front of your TV check out channel 21 because sometimes they have some really cool, interesting and, best of all, local shows with a wide range of interests. Some of the cooler shows I've seen here are Z-axis, Crazy Late with Johnny Millwater and Scotty's Drive-In Theater. But there are quite a few other diamond sin the rough out there, check out their schedule http://www.tvaccess21.com/froms/4th_quarter_2011.pdf. The best part is that for a small membership fee, $25, you can take some of their most involved TV production classes such as Basic Studio and Control Room. Other great opportunities to learn television production include Final Cut Pro X, Green Screen Lighting, Chroma Keying and Webcasting. CMPAC provides a great opportunity for Charlotte to display a wide range of opinions, voices and interests, unfortunately, the channel is mostly being overrun by religious programming.
