I hope not, they should of stopped you BCTV NEWS ON GLOBAL long timeago. But what about the threat that CTV9 will take the name BCTV if Global BC drops it? That's a huge risk.

I don't think that would happen - the CTV Network has dropped stuff like that - look at CFTO - now CTV Toronto. No need to confuse us even more!

Agreed, now that I've seen the opening, the new logo and colour scheme really ties in well - I love it!
But what's with the "Rank, Name, Position, Regular Statistics"...I've seen it myself, but I don't know why they chose a sports theme for the scrolling text...

p90k - the text that scrolls around during the news open.
millar - That wasn't a sports theme, I think it has to do with population of Canadian cities.

Yep, eventhough BCTV is a strong brand and most people still refer to BCTV as far as I can see, CTV will fight tooth and nail to prevent the CIVT station from using the BCTV brand. For using a cookie-cutter approach is more important to CTV suits in Toronto than ratings. Eventhough the BCTV name would help their ratings tremendously.

yes, but wouldnt so viewers with an actual brain might say "hey ctv's sad their using BCTV to get better ratings" but then agian i dont think main viewers have a brain or even care. I would just Trademark it, and if they take sue like no tomorrow and use the money for a news chopper.

BCTV should NOT get a newschopper. That's too American.

CTV Vancouver wont take BCTV. They've worked to hard to promote YOUR HOME YOUR NEWS and what they have now (chopper 9) and seem to be trying to build on their current format, which is working for them. The implementation of BCTV onto their newscasts would confuse viewers, and make them wonder why Tony Parsons is not on, causing them to be upset. They could take the name, but not necessarily the experience and familiarity the people at Global have with their news and ratings.
>>>.IF Global kept BCTV as a trademark and did not use it, would that be enough to stop CIVT from potentially taking it, and is that possible to do?
