Also, being first in HD for Buffalo would be a huge plus. All Channel 2 has to do now is keep working hard to climb the ratings even further.

Their graphics are ok but it often looks dark and gloomy behind Jackie and Don at the anchor desk. It is also all to obvious that they are trying to save money because they don't get the quality reporters channel 2 does. They need to realize that viewers want quality in their reporting, they apparently don't think it is important for some reason but I think it is more that they just don't care..and it shows. @ Randy, Channel 4 needs to do some serious updating.

Having been a loyal Ch. 4 fan since about 1952 (!), I now watch Ch. 2 news most of the time for the reasons you have cited. Ch. 4 emphasizes so much of the fires, shootings, accidents and morbid crime, that I just don't care to see! I agree.

It has been surprisingly successful at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday. It gets ratings in the 3 and 4 range." Don't be surprised if that happens. Once football season starts, the 11:30 slot won't be available. That's what killed Sports Extra once upon a time. “One replacement possibility: Channel 2 could move Bill O’Loughlin’s talk show to noon. It has been surprisingly successful at 11:30 p.m. on Sunday.

Great anchors, graphics, reporters(except for one), and I find myself watching them more than ever. I certainly hope that they do everything they can to keep Marissa Bailey because with her talent and looks she could go anywhere. Channel 2 has got it all!
