Fox 35 teases.... stop it

Let me preface to say that Fox 35 is probably the best Fox station out there and one of the best Stations in Orlando, the reporters and anchors are first rate, and the webguys and gals  are also fantastic.

But one of the most frustrating things to see in News and similar shows are these OVERDONE teases.  Either tell the news or not.... and then when you say NEXT, it isnt 20 minutes later.   Not sure if some News Consultant came to all stations but it is on the rise.   You mention a story or 2 or 3 that you will talk about Next... run to 5 commercials..... mention the tease AGAIN !!!!!!  and then 5 more commercials one of the 3 stories is mentioned while 10 minutes later the tease again for those NEXT stories.  

Sorry guys, but I click away and dont come back half the time.

The worse of these is Inside Edition and ET, or Insider type shows where they do this 30 times in a half hour.  If you add up these teases, folks, they are more than the actual story.

The other thing (which you dont do but another channel does) is ask a question and say the answer when 'we come back" or at the end of the package.   I always leave and dont come back for a while when they do that.

I actually have 4 TVs running with Fox35 unmuted in my Home office while catching up on work or calling LA offices.   So the teases stay... but man o man, I am leaving if they keep getting worse.   Tell the consultants, NEXT IS NEXT. 

Here we go again... more teases before commercial.   Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

One of the teases last night, the lost horse. I sure hope they find it. It only took all night to find out what had happened to the horse. Beautiful animal! I know this guy is very grateful to the man who took him up in his plane to look for Ance.

I will add that if that is my only complaint..

I love Fox 35, the people behind the scenes and on air. YOu should see the Fox station in Tampa for instance. While great people, their broadcasts will put you to sleep.

Gammies: owning horses, I would have dreams that my horses were running around my neighborhood. I hope the horse didnt get hurt... not sure how you can not see the horse and no one can take him without a trailer.

Once my 3 horses got out when a person left a gate open in spite, and after 30 sec of running around, they rolled right in the main gate after I shook feed at them. I raised them since they were born so people laugh at how they listen and act.

I, also love the FOX35 news crew. They make me smile. Witty and friendly. Makes you feel at ease.

This is a big problem TG we where blogging it a few days ago and some of us have actually stopped watching the broadcast because of it! I can get just as much “news” from the front page of this blog in 3 minuets as I can out of an hour of broadcast....I love ya Fox but you have gotten “soft” . Even if I tevo the news cast the teasers keep making me jump in for a story that is coming up...so even that does not help!
