From Francophone Canada, ​here’s the launch of Noovo’s new, in-house newscast: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/Qa8PXKoPtak/maxresdefault.jpg "Noovo - Le Fil 17h (New Newscast) - Open March 29, 2021") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa8PXKoPtak) A part of the YouTube description from Emarsee, who uploaded the clip: > “Le Fil” (The Wire) is Noovo’s (formerly TQS and V) second attempt at an in-house news program. From 1989 until it’s cancellation in 2008, the television network had a news operation known as “Le Grand Journal”. Starting in 2017, the network aired an out-sourced newscast known as “NVL” and that was cancelled upon the launch of “Le Fil”. Here are the opening minutes of Noovo’s new newscast (or should I say Noovo nouveau) as anchored by Noémi Mercier. I’m pretty sure the beginning of the tease was cut off. I was recording it off the web stream, so I have no idea if that’s how it actually appeared on air. The newscast began with an interview with Quebec Premier, François Legault. At 5:30, the newscast in regions outside Montreal begin their local opt-outs, with the Bell Media O&O in Quebec City, Shebrooke, Trois-Rivières, and Saguenay editions anchored by Lisa-Marie Blais and regional affiliates presumably having their own editions. ​Here are the local opt-out mentioned above: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/2csL01eFaD4/maxresdefault.jpg "Noovo - Le Fil regional opt-outs - Opens April 2021") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2csL01eFaD4) And a graphics montage: [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/LXllkqHNyy8/maxresdefault.jpg "Noovo - "Le Fil" Graphics Montage - 2021") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXllkqHNyy8) ---

Very evolutionary. Proprietary typeface stays in place and so does its animation logic. Lost more of the green from the last two generations of presentation in favor of more blue. And the studio exhibits the same sort of evolution, though I bet they liked the versatility of the larger standalone displays that VTM has. ---

It’s because of a merger of the NBC, CBS & MyNetwork TV news departments, they provide news for the 3 channels and needed a uniform name that doesn’t have the channel name in it because they simulcast some bulletins across the stations.
