WXET (Channel 31) (date: Aug 12 2008) (Note: This is my fictional affiliate)
WXET is a fictional television station located in Merriweather, broadcasting on channel 31. The station is currently affiliated with The CW but has undergone several affiliation changes since its inception. WXET was launched on May 12, 1992, originally as a FOX affiliate, then transitioning to UPN in 1995 before ultimately joining The CW network in 2006.

History
Launch and Early Years (1992-1995)
WXET began broadcasting on May 12, 1992, as Merriweather’s first FOX affiliate. The station was founded by a group of local entrepreneurs aiming to provide viewers with a diverse lineup of entertainment options. In its early years, WXET gained popularity for its strong local programming, including news segments and community outreach initiatives.

During its initial affiliation with FOX, WXET aired popular shows such as The X-Files, Beverly Hills, 90210, and The Simpsons, helping to establish the station as a competitive player in the Merriweather television market.

Transition to UPN (1995-2006)
In 1995, WXET switched its affiliation to UPN, following the network’s launch earlier that year. The transition was part of a strategy to reach a broader audience by aligning with UPN's programming, which targeted younger viewers and showcased shows such as Star Trek: Voyager, Moesha, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

During its time as a UPN affiliate, WXET continued to produce local news coverage, and even expanded its local programming to include a range of public affairs and lifestyle shows tailored to the interests of the Merriweather community.

Affiliation with The CW (2006-Present)
In 2006, UPN ceased operations, and WXET became a charter affiliate of The CW network. With the rebranding, the station adopted a new logo and revamped its programming slate to include a mix of established hits, such as Gilmore Girls and America’s Next Top Model, alongside new series like Supernatural and The Vampire Diaries.

The station has also continued to invest in local journalism, expanding its news division and producing community-focused content that resonates with viewers in Merriweather. WXET has received several awards for its news coverage and community service, cementing its role as a trusted source of information in the market.

The station does not use the main CW branding but rather uses their own branding, which is a mix of the main CW branding and S4C's "Dragon" themed idents, These are listed below:

Dragon Man: A man dressed as a dragon in a mountainous region blows fire.
Dragon Standard: On different angles, fire is spreading around some sticks. The screen then proceeds to show the whole object, which is a floating red standard in the shape of a dragon.
Scissors: A pair of red scissors open up and blow an orange piece of tissue paper to represent fire.
A short version had a closer view of the scissor's blades, which has smoke coming from it.
Kite: A kite made to look like a dragon floats around in the sky.
Standpipe: A standpipe is turned on and emits fire.
Extinguisher: A sentient fire extinguisher sees a flame and proceeds to put it out.
A short version had a closer view of the extinguisher's pressure gauge, which is constantly moving.
Pencil: A red pencil draws fire on the floor. Then, the screen shows a close view of the pencil, which has the S4C flame emblem on it.
Fan: A fan is located near an open window on a room, working. Eventually, it blows fire rather than wind.
Gas Pump: The upper part of a gas pump rotates and then blows fire. The screen then shows the entire object.
Horn: A yellow horn, likely over a table, blows fire.
Bin: The upper part of a pedal bin is seen moving around a bit. Garbage falls from above, which the bin catches, then burns away.
Iron: A flatiron slides through, ironing a red table cloth. It backs and lifts up, emitting steam from its flat, then lays down and its buzz lights up while emitting the steam.
Vacuumer: Multiple shots of a vacuum cleaner in front of the curtains moving its tube around, with audience clapping heard throughout.
Shower: The scene opens up to a bathroom with someone seemingly showering. The curtains are pulled to reveal a red shower head, looking around frightened. It blows fire and pulls the curtains back.
Magic Trick: A wand taps a red magic hat on a blue table, preparing for a trick. After the camera pans out and the wand flies away, fire blows out of the hat, followed by confetti.
A variation of this has yellow flowers pop out of the hat.
Food Press: In front of a blue kitchen wall, a food press blows fire as it presses.
Lawnmower: Multiple shots of a lawnmower in action on a big grass field, which moves slightly erratically.
Speaker: A loudspeaker hops in and blasts breakbeat, then turns towards the camera and blows fire. It then hops out and later appears in the background.
Egg: An egg is situated on a checkered table in front of a white wall. It blows its top and fire comes out of it, followed by red smoke.
Stapler: A pink stapler rushes in and notices a red textile bar, which it catches. Struggling a bit, it tears the bar from its original place, then flails it around as if it were its tounge.
Mouse: A computer mouse rushes through the scene multiple times, then gets stuck and does escape, but also reveals its connector tail. The mouse then shakes and wiggles its tail.

These are used as station IDs. Promos have several gray bars going down the screen overlaid over a clip of a show, then the show name and date fade in, and so does the WXET logo.

Forum Title: What's on WXET's Syndicated Programming List?

User 1 (MerriweatherFan99):
Hey everyone! I’ve been watching WXET since they first became a CW affiliate, and I love their local news and community programming. However, I’m curious about the syndicated shows they air. Does anyone know what their current lineup looks like?

User 2 (TVJunkie1967):
Great question! I’ve noticed they have some solid syndicated content mixed in with the CW shows. As of now, I believe they air some classic sitcoms like Friends and The Office, which are crowd-pleasers! Plus, I think they also show The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Dr. Phil during the daytime.

User 3 (Merriweather_Native):
Yeah, Friends is definitely a highlight! They also air The Big Bang Theory which has a huge following. I think it airs in the evenings after their local news. It’s nice to have a mix of local and national programming on the station.

User 4 (NewsBuff88):
As far as I know, WXET also has some classic game shows in their lineup, like Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!. Those are staples for a lot of viewers, especially in the early evening time slots. It's a nice reminder of the old-school TV days!

User 5 (SitcomLover):
I heard that WXET has recently expanded their daytime lineup too. Anyone know if they added any new shows? I'm hoping they might include You Bet Your Life with Jay Leno or something like that!

User 6 (Merriweather Insider):
From what I've heard, they're always tweaking their programming based on viewer feedback. They definitely continue to air The Kelly Clarkson Show, which is super popular. If you’re looking for the most up-to-date info, I suggest checking their website or social media—sometimes they announce new additions there!

User 1 (MerriweatherFan99):
Thanks for all the info, everyone! Sounds like a good mix of programming. I’ll keep an eye out for those classic shows and anything new they might add. Let’s hope they don’t take Friends off the air anytime soon!

User 7 (OldSchoolFan):
You’re right; Friends is such a gem! It seems like WXET is trying to balance new and classic content, which keeps everyone entertained. I’d be interested in knowing if they plan to add any more local shows as well!

User 2 (TVJunkie1967):
Definitely! The blend of local programming like Merriweather Today with renowned syndicated content really makes WXET stand out in our media landscape. Let’s hope they keep it up!

User 3 (Merriweather_Native):
Agreed! It’s all about keeping the local flavor while satisfying the demand for popular national shows. Can’t wait to see what else they bring to the table!

Forum Title: Follow-Up on WXET's Dragon-Themed Presentation

User 1 (MerriweatherFan99):
Hey everyone! Thanks for the great discussion about WXET's syndicated programming. I have another question I’d love to get your thoughts on. How long has WXET been using those dragon-themed station IDs and promos? I remember them switching their branding not too long ago, but I’m curious about when it actually started. Anyone have the details?

User 2 (TVJunkie1967):
Good question! I think the dragon-themed presentation debuted around the same time they became a CW affiliate in 2006. I remember them making a big deal about the rebranding and how they wanted to create something unique for Merriweather. It’s certainly given the station a distinctive flair!

User 3 (Merriweather_Native):
Yeah, I agree! I love how creative those dragon-themed IDs are! They definitely set WXET apart from other stations. If memory serves me right, they started using that branding shortly after they switched to The CW, so it should be around 2006 or 2007.

User 4 (LocalMediaGuru):
Just to provide some clarity, I believe the dragon theme was fully integrated by 2007. They had a few promotional campaigns afterwards to emphasize the new identity. It seems like they've really embraced the dragon idea since then, even using various dragon motifs in their community events!

User 5 (OldSchoolFan):
That sounds about right! It's always fun to see how stations can reinvent their branding. The dragon theme definitely adds a vibrant touch to the overall presentation. Here’s hoping they continue to innovate with their IDs in the future!

User 1 (MerriweatherFan99):
Thanks for the info, everyone! It’s nice to know that the dragon theme has been around for a while now. I hope they keep evolving it, too. It sets a fun tone for the station!

Yomiuri Telecasting Company: Background to the launch
In 1953 , prior to its launch in Tokyo, Nippon Television Network Corporation (hereafter referred to as "NTV") submitted an application for a broadcasting license in Osaka to the Radio Regulatory Commission . However, at the time, there were only two radio waves allocated to the Osaka area, and licenses were given to two stations, NHK Osaka Broadcasting Station and Osaka Television Broadcasting (OTV, now Asahi Television Broadcasting Corporation ), and the license for "NTV Osaka Broadcasting Station" was rejected.

The reason for the rejection was that "Nippon Television represents the Tokyo area, and broadcasting in Osaka would be 'crossing borders.'" [ note 2 ] Matsutaro Shoriki , head of the Yomiuri Shimbun and Nippon Television , applied to the Radio Regulatory Commission to establish regional broadcasting stations in Sapporo , Nagoya , and Fukuoka in addition to Osaka, but this was also rejected for the same reason . [ note 3 ]

At that time, the Yomiuri Shimbun had expanded into Osaka, and was competing fiercely with the Asahi Shimbun , the Mainichi Shimbun , and others in sales. Since Osaka Television Broadcasting was a television station established by the Asahi Shimbun, the Mainichi Shimbun, and the Asahi Broadcasting Corporation and New Japan Broadcasting (now the Mainichi Broadcasting System), Tsutomu Mitsuo , the president of the Osaka Yomiuri Shimbun (now the Yomiuri Shimbun Osaka Headquarters) at the time , was convinced that "in order to increase circulation against the two newspapers, we need to have our own affiliated television station," and the Yomiuri Shimbun also decided to create a television station with investment from the Kansai business community, centered around the Osaka Yomiuri Shimbun. Tsutomu was the representative promoter and gathered promoters from the business community.

The name of the broadcasting station was " Shin -Osaka Television Broadcasting Co., Ltd. " (abbreviated as NOTV = New Osaka Television . It was called " No-Tele "), and the founding general meeting was held in February 1957. The company building was constructed by borrowing most of the grounds of the Tenman Betsuin temple of the Otani-ha Shinshu sect in Iwai-cho , Kita-ku, Osaka (now Higashi-Tenma ) .

In October 1956, they submitted an application for a broadcasting license to the Minister of Posts and Telecommunications. In October 1957, a provisional license was issued to Shin-Osaka Television Broadcasting as a quasi-educational station (Channel 10, JOIX-TV). The company held its founding general meeting on February 12, 1958, and on August 1 of the same year, the company changed its name from "Shin-Osaka Television Broadcasting" to "Yomiuri Telecasting Co., Ltd." (abbreviated as YTV, nicknamed Yomiuri Television). On the 28th of the same month , it opened as the second commercial television station in the Kinki region, completely transferring all of the Nippon Television programs that had been networked with OTV.

The opening of Yomiuri Television resolved the dissatisfaction of sponsors of Nippon Television Network Corporation's programs, which had not been broadcast in the Kinki region due to OTV's cross-network policy. [ Note 4 ] This also contributed greatly to the increase in circulation of the Yomiuri Shimbun in western Japan .

Among the commercial television stations headquartered in Osaka (Osaka-based television stations), it is the only one that does not have capital from a Kansai private railway , and its capital is composed of Yomiuri Shimbun Group and Nomura Securities affiliates . [ Note 5 ]
