My husband directed part of a friend's music video here and I tagged along for the shoot. Jerry was…read moreour friend's contact and was extremely helpful. He gave us a tour of the facilities the day before the shoot and we got to see all that Fairfax Public Access has to offer. There is a large empty studio that we used complete with a huge green-screen wall or choice of black, navy or tan curtain (I think those were the colors). They also have a set that has a full kitchen--just like when you think of Food Network shows like Rachel Ray. I personally don't know all the terminology for all the stuff in there but we were all very impressed by everything. I felt that the cost for renting the studio to non-members was quite reasonable but I have no basis for comparison. We also brought in our own lighting and cameras but were able to use the studio lights with some assistance. Jerry let us know that members who take certain classes to train on the equipment are able to use the studios and everything free of charge (the membership costs $26 according to the site and you have to pay for the classes). Definitely look into this place as an option for studio rentals among other things.

I've had the pleasure of going into the studios 2 times now to appear on Good Morning Washington,…read moreand it was such a pleasure each time. First thing! Parking: There is a large parking garage under the building and the attendant is pretty friendly. He'll ask you how long you're planning on being there, and for me, it was always like 1 hour so he would park me somewhere real close. Second thing! There is a little cafe across the street that opens super early. So if you're on Good Morning Washington and have to be at the studios at 7:15, you can grab a bacon egg and cheese sandwich across the street- I believe the spot opens at like 6 for all the early birds. Third! The biggest surprise to entering the TV Studio is that pretty much 90 percent of the space is taken up by desks. It's pretty much like a huge office and then the studio is like SOOO small. The actual news studio is like the size of a 1 bedroom apartment in DC. All of the anchors and production staff are really sweet and nice. It seems like they really enjoy their jobs. Which comes off in their interaction. It's not like... oh they're super nice on camera and then when the feed goes dead they're like " I hate this place." Quite the opposite. I look forward to going back and doing more segments with Audra and the rest of the team there. Also, Live TV is no joke. Good thing I have so much experience from when I read the announcements on our school TV station at Richard Montgomery High School ;)

I would LOVE to give NBC 4 5 stars, but I have some personal gripes with this station I love so…read moremuch. Why go young NBC4 as if the former reports or co-anchors weren't good enough? I mean we keep Jim and Doreen but bump Bob Ryan? Come on!!!! It's bad enough we no longer have Arch Campbell because if I have to labor through hearing Pat Collins any more....HE'S the guy you need to let go!! We let go of some really good people... =[ And another thing, why in the halibut isn't Steve Handelsman on NBC Nightly News? This guy BEAST out on his reports! Steve is about as stately as you can get. He has truly outgrown the local news format, and all praise goes to this former man of academia! Yes people, education goes a long way! Hurray STEVE! Help me get a job Steve? heh heh....I keed! I keeeeeeeeed! Ok, maybe I'm not giving the new crew a chance. I mean who doesn't love Lindsey, Dan and Doug (thank goodness he's a local!) but it was all so sudden WRC-TV! I have been watching you for YEARS! I think I've been watching News 4 since I was in the second grade. I grew up watching Jim Vance....even through his "trouble years" with the station and I've always pulled for him. And when I stood beside him in an elevator at GW after an outpatient procedure, I knew I was watching the right channel for me. He's the coolest guy ever! He IS Washington DC! Doreen, uh, I think she feels I use to stalk her when she did stories at GW back in the mid 90's. A former professor laughed when I told her the story and she mentioned: "Oh, what young guy didn't crush on Doreen when she first showed up?" At any rate, I love the news cast, everyone from Barbara Harrison to Pat Lawson Muse (who looks the same way when she was at my high school YEARS ago! hee hee) to Joe Krebs to Tom Kierein to Wendy Reiger to Tom Sherwood. I can't imagine NOT watching NBC 4 local news! I wake up to them, come home from work to them and go to sleep to them. Unfortunately, I just don't believe every story I hear on the news...lol. Come on folks, I'm not as hypnotized as I seem. =]

NBC absolutely sucks. Your coverage of the Olympics is the worse. I seldom watch your station and…read morenow I know why. The Olympics should be the priority right now and you to televise it in the middle of the night and when it is one, you fill it with a million commercials.

The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is a North American public broadcaster and non-commercial,…read morefree-to-air television network based in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia. PBS is a publicly funded nonprofit organization and the most prominent provider of educational programs to public television stations in the United States, distributing shows such as Frontline, Nova, PBS NewsHour, Masterpiece, Sesame Street, and This Old House. I've seen a lot of documentary and music programs on PBS. Depending on the time of day I watch the mystery shows and crime shows that don't have the fundraising interruptions. The station is geared to the city where viewers reside. I can see different shows on PBS out of New Jersey and also New York. I'm recommending.

The vast number of cultured Jewish music lovers , who are naturally perplexed at the shamelessness and cultural arrogance of a "Oh Come all ye faithful"; 2. Thousands of music lovers who happen to be neither Jewish nor Christian and feel left out when inundated by jingles all day long 3. Serious Christians who feel the birth of Christ is too solemn an event for Christmas jingles and should be honored by the more congruous compositions celebrating the Event of which there is a multitude by real composers--Mozart, Verdi, Bach,et al. So by drowning your listeners with totally musically incongruous material, you are trivializing what Christ truly stood up for and losing contributions.
