What's With the Awful Looking Bare Sets?

Lotus — Sun, 28 Dec 2014 02:05:52 GMT

Boy, they couldn't wait to remove all the Christmas decorations could they? It would have been nice to leave them a few more days.

The sets look so bare and sound "hollow".....I think they really should have spruced them up a little.

(watching the Vionic presentation)

It was said on air today that the sets have been done over and everything is new. I'm not loving it, but don't dislike it either......

I thought it was just me. I think the sound is weird on some of the sets too, sounds like they're in a big warehouse with sort of an echo and background noise.

It's not warm and inviting at all....the sound is horrible. I'm surprised they haven't done anything with the acoustics.

A lot of neutral colors that's for sure. Most have dreary weather...it would be nice to spruce up their set and see something pretty.

What's it doing out in Vegas found? My son and his GF are on their way out there right now.

We've actually had some very mild weather, but it's supposed to get cold again tomorrow.

It's cold here lotus...not Long Island cold but cold enough. One has to keep their neck covered....that cold. Last night it dipped into the 30's...today's high is 45 maybe a little higher at McCarran.

Wow...it sounds like you're colder now than we are. It was 62 today....VERY unusual for us.

My stepmom wanted me to drive her to her hair dresser today but I need to gas up my car. She called me around 9am to confirm and I said, sorry not today.

eta: she never steps outside and so has no clue what the weather is like.

They are probably not finished with decorating the sets after removing all of the Christmas glop.

I think the sets look fine. And that they are a work in progress.

There is a hollow or echo in the studio, I noticed that immediately.

I agree completely with the OP. When I saw Carolyn the morning of the 26th I thought maybe there was a flood or accident on the real set and they moved her into something temporary and unfinished.

Considering they've been The Christmas Network since about July, pushing Christmas nonstop night and day, they really banished virtually every hint of the season to the storeroom much quicker than I've ever seen. (I admit that I did see Albany on a set that had some evergreenery in the background...maybe an homage to winter). Even local news keeps the poinsettas on the set until New Year's.

The empty hollow sound is awful, like air swooshing through a tunnel.

It looks and sounds 100x better than last week.

Too many people are in a hurry to put things up and take them down early.

Still empty and the sound is still there tonight.
