ABOUT
KNBC, virtual channel 4 (UHF digital channel 36), is an NBC owned-and-operated television station licensed to Los Angeles, California, United States, serving as the network's West Coast flagship outlet. The station is owned by the NBC Owned Television Stations subsidiary of NBCUniversal (itself a subsidiary of Comcast), as part of a duopoly with Corona-licensed Telemundo West Coast flagship KVEA (channel 52). The two stations share studios in the northwest corner of the Universal Studios Hollywood lot off of Lankershim Boulevard in Universal City; KNBC's transmitter is located on Mount Wilson.
In the few areas of the western United States where an NBC station is not receivable over-the-air, KNBC is available on satellite television through DirecTV.
Channel 4 first went on the air as KNBH (standing for "NBC Hollywood") on January 16, 1949. It was the second-to-last VHF station in Los Angeles to debut, and the last of NBC's five original owned-and-operated stations to sign on. Unlike the other four, KNBH was the only NBC-owned television station that did not benefit from having a sister radio station. Though the NBC Radio Network had long been affiliated with KFI in Los Angeles, that relationship did not extend into television when KFI-TV (channel 9, now KCAL-TV) signed on in August 1948. When KNBH signed on, it marked the debut of NBC programs on the West Coast. Channel 4 originally broadcast from the NBC Radio City Studios on Sunset Boulevard and Vine Street in Hollywood.
The station changed its callsign to KRCA (for NBC's then-parent company, the Radio Corporation of America) on October 18, 1954. The call letters were changed again on November 11, 1962, when NBC moved the KNBC identity from its San Francisco radio station (which became KNBR) and applied it to channel 4 in Los Angeles. That call letter change coincided with the station's physical relocation from NBC Radio City to the network's color broadcast studio facility in suburban Burbank. NBC Color City, as it was then known, had been in operation since March 1955, and was at least four to five times larger than Radio City, and could easily accommodate KNBC's locally produced studio programming. NBC Radio's West Coast operations eventually followed channel 4 to Burbank not too long after.
The station officially modified its callsign to KNBC-TV in August 1986, shortly after NBC and RCA were purchased by General Electric; the -TV suffix was dropped effective September 6, 1995.
On October 11, 2007, NBCUniversal announced that it would put its Burbank studios up for sale and construct a new, all-digital facility near the Universal Studios Hollywood backlot in Universal City, in an effort to merge all of NBCUniversal's West Coast operations into one area. As a result, KNBC, KVEA and NBC News' Los Angeles bureau moved to a new digital facility on the Universal lot formerly occupied by Technicolor SA. The studio opened on February 1, 2014. Shortly thereafter, NBCUniversal named the new broadcast center in honor of former KNBC and NBC News anchor/reporter Tom Brokaw, christened the Brokaw News Center.
In fall 2007 with the rollout of digital broadcasting, the station began airing a 24/7 newschannel News Raw on the .2 subchannel.

(1985 - 1993) - NewsCenter II Theme - Michael Randall Music

I like the synth score from 1986-1991 the best. Very serious, dramatic, distinctive, and newsy.

So John Beard started growing back his mustache around May 1993?! Well, that was good!

ThisGuy Here Probably the open was introduced in September of 1992.

Can you also do KRON (NBC) - Channel 4 San Francisco - News Open & Close (1991-1999)?

How come Today in LA had the the old open (4:20 & 5:12) well into 1994 featuring the old logo along with the NewsCenter II theme? Did they phase the early 1990s "NBC 4/News 4" O&O look in on various dayparts back in late 1993 into 1994? From that actual 1993 open (1:53) it looked like someone designed it back 1990 (looks so late 80s looking), which makes me wonder the Today in LA 1994 open looked like it was designed and aired not too long before the mandatory look came along.

Minifig Newsguy -- My guess is that KNBC was slowly phasing out the 1985 logo in favor of the 1993 logo. KCBS had done the same for at least a year retaining the last KNXT logo in the news opens.

1991 still looked like 1987

@darkdancer. The first news intros for talent opens were used from 1987 to 1993. The 1987 to 1992 versions kept the same theme music, but there were some changes with the chyron print on screen, with the blue 4 used from 1985 through 1989, then it became a white 4 with the NBC peacock through April 1992. Then, a new set debuted along with new chyron on screen with a blue 4, the NBC peacock, and a blue line under the names of the anchors and reporters. The theme music used between 1987 and 1992 was part of the same news music package as August 1985 through March 1987, when it changed to a version used through April 1992. The 4 and 5 o'clock afternoon news weekday versions had a softer sound and so did the 11 o'clock at night versions. The 6 o'clock at night version had a harder sound as did all weekend news opens fron 1987 through April 1992. Beginning in April 1992, all broadcasts had a new sound that was softer than any of them, eventually replaced in 1993 by a new theme and on screen graphics as well. The "Today in L.A." broadcasts retained the older theme until the late 1990s or early 2000s. The current NBC4 News theme began in 2004.
