A collection of TV Guide Channel idents. These would've replaced the Prevue Channel idents that debut in 1998: youtu.be/3qeDPE8SXLM (as TV Guide was sold to United Video Satellite Group (Prevue Networks' parent company) by News Corporation.)
These set of idents were produced at Pittard Sullivan in 1999. Sourced from Ed Sullivan's Vimeo page: vimeo.com/55695821. A pair of these are also available over at AgedCGI's channel, albeit uncropped from how they would've been originally displayed on TVGC: youtu.be/m5ANEmDQ1nA
These have not been altered in any way.

From June 27 to November 3, 2023, The Weather Channel has seemingly decided to bring back its famous Weather STAR 4000 (more accurately, its visuals) for an hour-long week-morning (3 AM CT) broadcast consisting of nationwide local forecasts with smooth jazz. Some may say that this is almost just like the real thing, although if I had to be perfectly honest, nothing can beat the real thing.
About the only critism I have about this (other than the font being used, admittedly its pretty close to whatever the 4000 used back in the day.) is the lack of Current Conditions icons, as the only icon set that appears throughout (from the amount that Ive seen of this) is often associated with the Regional Conditions/Regional Forecast segments.
The content provided is owned by The Weather Channel / Weather Group LLC / Allen Media Group. I am not affiliated with either company, just a long time fan of things like these. On the other hand, the music seems to be sourced from Transition Music according to YouTubes Content ID.
Clipped around Cincinnati since a TCF recreation follows shortly and I wanted to provide some high quality footage of that. For the curious, the full hour has been re-uploaded by TWCZach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcH63awa5ow")
