NBC Miami’s “Sports Extra” To Return to the Air

Published by admin on 8/12/2010 in Local Media and come backs.

WTVJ canceled ‘Sports Final’ in July of 2009 amid the souring economy but GM Ardyth Diercks was quoted as saying that it could return eventually. Fast forward to today and we have WTVJ (sports) reporter Adam Kuperstein tweeting that the station’s Sunday sports wrap show is returning!

Kuperstein says ‘Sports Final’ will be back on the air starting September 12 for the Miami Dolphins opener and will be hosted by him and Joe Rose. In a follow up tweet Kuperstein’s adds that “the show will be shorter but EARLIER–about 15 minutes after the Sunday Night Football game on NBC. We can’t wait!”.

Andre Hepkins, The Prodigal Son, Returns to WSVN

Published by admin on 2/9/2009 in Local Media, arrivals and come backs.


Andre Hepkins, who left WSVN in 2004 for nationally syndicated Celebrity Justice (I believe he was their New York reporter) is now back at WSVN. When CJ was canceled he stayed in NY as reporter for FOX affiliate WNYW but recently he and the station parted ways.

WSVN head mistress Alice Jacobs fired off an email to all the 7Newsies announcing his return calling him “the prodigal son” of 7News or something like that.

Celebrity Justice was hosted by another WSVN alum, Holly Herbert.

Andre Hepkins on 7News, HD, either today or Feb 18th. You are welcome.

*Why was she referring to him as the prodigal son?
