After 10 seasons, ABC 7 Chicago's 'Windy City Live' transitioned from a daily talk show to a weekly program on September 10th, 2021, highlighting what's happening in Chicagoland ahead of each weekend. Airing Fridays at 11:30am, 'Windy City Weekend' hosts Ryan Chiaverini & Val Warner have shifted 90 minutes earlier, replacing the 2nd half hour of the station's 11am newscast, while featuring much of what already appeared in the time slot. Roz Varon's 'Weekender' report & Tracy Butler's full forecast remain, while WCL's (shortened) host chat segment & film critic Richard Roeper's 'Spend or Save' feature join from the former 1pm show. Also appearing at the top are news anchors Tanja Babich & Ravi Baichwal (filling in for Terrell Brown), who will toss to a preview of 'Weekend' at the close of their newscast.
Some of you may also notice that WLS is beginning to roll out their updated logo, in accordance with ABC's rebranding guidelines. It appears in the 'Windy City Weekend' package, plus a few promos that I left in this montage. The ABC dot has shrunk, and all glossy effects have been stripped from the iconic Circle 7, with the new proportions lining up with New York sister station, WABC-TV.
