That watermark is too big. Think a stacked version would work better.

I agree. The stacked version was much more respectable.

I’m pretty sure the Carols OB played out the promo (with the logo burned in) before Presentation cut to the break. It was also live-captioned just like the rest of the broadcast.

Interesting that Premier League provides world feeds in both HD and 4K. It’s a shame that Optus Sport’s telecast is only available in HD.

Was this the last year Nine did Sydney NYE? I remember Richard Wilkins presenting a lead-up show, ‘best of 2011’ or something, I recall a music one and I think JLo’s “On The Floor” hit featured.

2012 was the last year. 1996 host Catriona Rowntree and Jason Dundas were the presenters

WIN opted out of the concert in

WIN opted out of the concert in between the family and midnight fireworks for a 20 year old random movie I’ve never heard of, and don’t remember seeing on TV again.

Think it also took them about 15 minutes or so to cover-up Nine’s watermark.

LOL sounds about right!

While WIN’s effort at plastering are numerous and well documented, Fox Footy Channel circa early 2000s takes the cakes in terms of scrubbing any mention of another network, in this case Channel 7. Any visual reference to 7 Sport was either plastered or obscured in some way; watermark, scoreboard graphics, wipe transitions, you name it.
This was most obvious during replays from the 1999 season, as that’s when 7 Sports’ AFL graphics package was at its most self-serving & obnoxious…
