    Sad news for anybody, who watched NBC 2 KPRC-TV Houston over the years. Former NBC 2 KPRC-TV Houston Weatherman Doug Johnson, passed away on Thursday night at the age of 79. Johnson joined NBC 2 in 1962 & stayed until his retirement in 1992. He was also the co-host for "The Scene at 5" with the late Ron Stone.

    KPRC-TV viewers were emailing Mike McGuff of mikemcguff.com that KPRC was running promos announcing a new morning meteorologist has been named & it's current weekend morning meteorologist Britta Merwin. The station has officially confirmed it! As McGuff reported back in October, current longtime morning meteorologist Anthony Yanez is heading to the west coast to KNBC-TV Los Angeles, CA (NBC 4) on January 21st, so everyone knows there was an opening coming up. Merwin will officially start as the main morning weather gig on January 16th. Leading up to his January 15th KPRC send off, Yanez has been busy plugging his new children's book "A Wild Ride on the Water Cycle"-a children's book that teaches weather science to younger readers.

    Today was the debut for Haley Hernandez as the health MMJ in the health beat segments for KPRC-TV. In the aftermath of the retirement of Ch. 13's Christi Meyers, many people thought that healthbeat segments were going to be eliminated for good. Apparently, there's a small bit of life. Mike McGuff of mikemcguff.com and other news media blogs reported that Hernandez was previously from WCDB-TV Charleston, South Carolina, where she worked as the NBC station's weekend morning anchor and reporter for the last 3 and half years. The last health reporter for KPRC-TV had was Krista Marino and that was years ago (Marino is married to Ch. 13's Ted Oberg). http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2014/09/haley-hernandez-is-new-kprc-health-mmj.html?m=1 http://www.kprc.com/ Reaction from anyone regarding KPRC's decision to bring back the Healthbeat segments?

    With Nick Giovanni leaving KPRC-TV for WUSA-TV in Washington D.C., the NBC Houston affiliate replaced him with James Starks as one of the station's sports anchors/reporters. Who is James Starks you might ask ? Starks played for the Cincinnati Bengals as a free agent in 2008. Injuries led him to play for the Ancona Dolphins in Italy. Before going to the Pros, Starks was a two-time All-American at Capital University in Columbus, OH. In 2007, he was named the Ohio Athletic Conference's defensive back of the year. Before joining KPRC-TV, he previously worked at WOIO-TV and Fox 8 in Cleveland, where Starks was a sideline reporter and anchor. He follows another recent KPRC-TV sports hire, Simone Eli, who was also a college athlete. http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2014/09/james-starks-kprc-2-sports-anchor-reporter-.html Now the sports team at KPRC-TV includes Randy McIlvoy (sports director), Simone Eli, Chester Pitts, and Starks.

    After 20 years at KPRC-TV NBC 2 Houston, reporter Mary Benton is calling it quits and leaving the TV biz for good and going into the private sector, according to the Houston Chronicle and Mike McGuff of mikemcguff.com. "It's certainly with mixed emotions that I'm leaving." Benton told mikemcguff.com. "I'm going to miss my coworkers at Channel 2. Most importantly, I will miss interacting with viewers that have become like friends and family. I was so blessed that I had the opportunity to tell their stories over two decades. I think what I will miss the most is being a voice in the newsroom and represent those that did not have a voice in the media." Benton's last day on KPRC-TV will be July 11th. http://mikemcguff.blogspot.com/2014/07/mary-benton-is-leaving-kprc-2.html?m=1 http://www.chron.com/ http://www.kprc.com/ Benton's been there since 1994. Any reaction from ladies and gentlemen about Benton leaving KPRC-TV after 20 years?
