Montrose1100 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 More of a "hearing", but in Jay Z's new song "Tom Ford", he mentions H Town when referencing Beyonce. Two firsts, he mentions Houston and a major gay designer. It's that kind of night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChannelTwoNews Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Tower Spotter, here is another video from WNYW-TV New York Fox 5 *SNIP* I'm trying to find Fox 26 Houston's 1986 and 1987 news opens similar to WNYW just let me know if anyone else can upload it It's funny you posted that clip. KRIV actually ended up getting that set in the mid 90's, when WNYW got a new one. It was the last set they used while they were at the old studios on Westheimer (now the Central Market). They used the same graphics for the open around the same time too. I have a few items posted on my YouTube account from the station from 1989 - the tail end of the period you're looking for.

Montrose1100 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) There is a Grand Canyon University commercial with a flyover of Dowtiown facing south west. A bit dated though, as Discovery Green is just dirt. Also, don't know if this is national or just a localized commercial.

Blue Dogs Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 ChannelTwoNews, I stumbled upon this video on Rendezvous Houston concert news clips package and discovered that Shara Fryer was doing the 6pm newscasts with Dave Ward for KTRK 13 in 1986 here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Db6dRG0jgHQ KTRK's section is at the 0:0132 part of the video. So I assume that Fryer began doing 6pm weekday newscasts in 1986 or earlier in 1985 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Mojito Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 NBC's Community had a bit of a Houston easter egg during the season 5 premiere "Repilot" episode. during the end credits, you can see it here http://www.nbc.com/community/video/super-jeff-vs-super-abed/n44677/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTiger Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) This week an episode of the Mentalist was set in Houston. There were even a few shots of the skyline.'Course, everyone still had California accents, but points for effort!

KinkaidAlum Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I went to high school with the lead writer of the Mentalist. I'll ask her if that was one of her episodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronTiger Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Name of the episode was "The Golden Hammer", by the way. I wasn't familiar enough with Houston to know if there's any place with pink metal park benches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
