At The Start Of Jornal Da CNN At 8:58pm Lisbon Time.

In Addition, CNN Brasil Also Adopted To New Look A Few Months Ago,
But Time Has Moved To Bottom Left Corner To Match Their News Ticker.
(Time On The Bottom Left Corner Is Also Used On CNN Türk, But With Different Graphics.)

Here Is The TX (graphics) Of The New Look Of CNN Portugal.


And By The Way, ''We're All In This Together'' From High School Musical Movie
Was The Final Song To Air On Trace Vault.

The time on the left was used by the US/International feed, but one month later, they moved it back to the right. So, this was related to the US/Inter feed, unlike that feed, CNN Türk, which is join-ventured and always have different graphic, with the time on the left being used from before the US/International rebrand on June.

Great success for one of the companies that want to become the biggest European private TV company in Europe or something along the lines lol.

By now you have more RTL-sub licenced (even odd ones like the RTL 102.5 music channel in Italy) channels not directly owned by them than directly owned RTL channels , basically a bit of mess lol .

Plus, RTL Netherlands has killed its branding imagination with the latest coherent rebrand, going from a more disjointed but creative branding to black blandness, even for RTL Telekids.
So I guess things are prone to improve, maybe?

I guess it's also because these private channels struggle in the streaming era.

Plus, the RTL channels have never been internationally renowned for their quality, but cheap (relatively) US acquisitions and loads of reality shows, including some very bad (especially acting wise!) Ones from the likes of RTL2 in Germany.

At least ITV has more dignity, although they would love to get away with more "dross", as you can see with ITV2

The new RTL hungarian channels were launched.

And as a bonus here's 3 continuities from Sorozatklub, Moziklub and Kölyökklub.

Maybe, bit more likely the operations will be kept separated.

Or at least I hope. The RTL Belgian logos are not exactly high quality...

 

[BlooCNBoy02]

Like I said to RONTV, there are multiple RTL companies in Europe, so you need to add Hungary.

Wait, wait, wait. You're telling me that our RTL 102.5 is actually related to the RTL in Luxembourg, somehow?

 

[Francisque]

Wait, I was technically very wrong lol

L stands for Lombardia.. Radio trasmissione lombarde lol

So sorry.

How many RTLs does the world need? Next, Mars lol

I mean, that would have been so cool, but considering that RTL 102.5's logo doesn't match with any other RTL...

RTL Germany's three main channels are a reality machine. Sadly true. They make tons of reality and "social experiments disguised as reality" shows according to a survey I made of schedules of RTL, RTL Zwei and VOX. Reality and talent seem to be VOX's primary pillars as of now, and they seem to emphasize more on human interest unlike RTL Zwei does.

Neither RTL9 from France does, which is probably the silliest RTL, next to RTL for French speaking Belgium which uses some strange names too.

I mean, RTL TVI? Why?
