The 7 O’Clock News investigates celebrities with plastic surgery, Germany secedes from the union, and a surprise new person on The 7 O’Clock News. All that and more tonight!

Remember last month when Jonathan and I filmed 6 new episodes of The 7 O’Clock News? The remaining 5 episodes that were filmed that night are going to be released soon! Episode 41-45 will be released within the next month. And while we are releasing new episodes we will be busy filming more new episodes. And this spring we have a BIG episode on the way… more details to come. In the meantime, enjoy the new episodes!

Tonight we follow Johnny Jones as he celebrates recovery from rehab!

Tonight on The 7 O’Clock News: Is 5 Hour Energy bad for you?, Who’s A Better Driver: Sleepy Fathers or Sick Mothers?, and we finish up with Johnny in Taco Rehab.

We did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After 6 hours and 58 minutes we finished filming all six episodes! That’s right, from Episode 40-45. That is more episodes filmed at one time that we have ever done. We even filmed behind the scenes footage for the first time on The 7 O’Clock News. Hopefully that video will be up soon. But don’t think you will have to wait til these episodes to come out to see stuff from tonight’s epic filming session. Here are the pictures! The pictures are behind the scenes images from all of the upcoming episodes. Look for the pictures where I am wearing a hat, headphones, and glasses. That’s one of the new main characters on the show who you will meet in episode 41. But more about him later. I’m just glad that everything went smoothly and while our style of filming nay have been very random and scattered at times, I think we got some of the best footage we ever have in the history of The 7 O’Clock News! Well I’m exhausted so I’m going to bed. Enjoy the many pictures!

Pedro

Hey everyone,

Just thought I’d make a quick post before filming starts on the most epic day of filming in the history of The 7 O’Clock News. To illustrate how much we will be filming tonight, here’s a picture of the 6 scripts we will be filming tonight. I’ll post another update after we finish filming tonight. Hopefully I’ll have some behind the scenes pictures to share.

Pedro

Hey everyone,

Just thought I would bring you up to speed on the latest stuff happening behind the scenes on The 7 O’Clock News. As I am writing this I just finished filming scenes for Episode 40 and 41 and there is still one more scene left to film for Episode 39. Hopefully that episode will be out before Christmas. Tomorrow I plan to write 2 or 3 more episodes and then Wednesday will be a VERY long filming day. It will be the most filming we will have ever done in the history of The 7 O’Clock News. On Wednesday we will finish filming everything for 6 different episodes simultaneously. But for now, I am taking it easy after filming for 3 hours and I am watching playback from the footage that was filmed tonight.. here’s a picture. I’ll post an update Wednesday night after the most epic day of filming of all time.

Pedro

Where do Items that TSA confiscate go? Stanley the Rock’s New Movie. And Tacos! All tonight on The 7 O’Clock News!

Here’s a look behind the scenes during filming

A pregnant man and a kid in rehab? It’s all on tonight on The 7 O’Clock News!

Hey everyone,

Well, i just realized that I had promised everyone that after the relaunch i would post a picuture of the set… Been so busy lately that i forgot to do it. Until now that is. Hopefully this can hold u over til Episode 37 next week

Pedro

Hey everyone!

Episode 37 is still a few days away but I thought I’d go ahead and post a behind the scenes picture from the filming of the episode. Check back soon for the actual episode!

The earthquake originated as a 5.9 in DC and was felt as far as New York and North Carolina.

Here is our exclusive footage of the earthquake that happened while we were filming.

No injuries were reported other than from Andy Salmon. Johnny Jones ran around screaming and Tony D ran into a wall.

More information on the earthquake can be found at Google News.

As I am writing this I am watching back a roughly 80% complete Episode 36. This episode features some cool special effects. Definitely different from any episode we have ever done. I don’t want to give too much away but I will say this… Mega Ghost Punch… make of that what you will. Stay tuned for more updates!

Pedro

Here it is! This is the new logo for The 7 O’Clock News. Once the new episodes start coming out notice how many places we incorporate the 7. Whether that be on the graphics or even the set itself

Pedro

What could this be? Perhaps some raw footage showing our first use of the new green screen set? Or maybe it’s a funnel cake…. there’s no telling for sure.

Pedro

Here’s another picture from behind the scenes

Ok, so here’s what we’re doing. Everyday until the release of episode 35 we are going to release a picture from behind the scenes of the new set and potentially work in progress shots from the episode itself. Make sure to check back everyday to see a new image.

Pedro

Tonight marked the beginning of filming of new episodes! Tonight we filmed scenes with Andy and Shades on the set for two episodes, 35 and 37, as I am writing this I am going back and looking at the footage that we shot and first impressions are that it looks great! Still gonna work on doing some more filming tonight and possibly some more writing tonight and starting to get a bunch of new footage so that we can release alot of new episodes back to back. Check back here for more updates.

Pedro

Just thought I would let you all know that last night I finally managed to get all of the pieces of the set assembled. It looks fantastic! Gonna work on lighting and camera testing today. After that it should be done and ready to go! Hopefully we will be filming new episodes very soon!

Pedro

I have good news! The set is almost finished! I have spent the last 2 days painting and staining and all of that fun stuff and I just finished the backdrop! It looks incredible! All I have left to do is just put a clear finish on the main piece and then put the two frames on wheels and it will be done! Now eventually we will have 2 halves for the set, but right now due to cost and time, we will have one incredible looking piece ready to go while I work on the second one which could be ready anytime from a week to a month. It will depend on time constraints I guess. That’s all for now. Just thought I’d post another progress update especially after missing one yesterday. Stay cool.

Pedro

Time for today’s progress update. Well, tonight I have gotten quite alot done. I got the first of two front panels all put together then as I am writing this am in the middle of putting primer on what will eventually become the background for the set. I did film a short video update tonight that I hope to have online within a day or two. Tomorrow I am going to look at getting the paints and stain that I will need to finish this thing up before finally putting all of the pieces together and figuring out the lighting and whatnot. Hopefully by this time next week we will be filming new episodes! Well, one can hope right? Stay cool peeps!

Pedro

Just thought that I would make a quick post before going to bed tonight and give you an update on how things are going behind the scenes with building the new set. Today I went and picked up all of the materials I need for HALF of the set and I have been working on putting that together tonight. Two of the four frames have been built and built the wheels that the frame will sit on. Tomorrow morning I hope to be able to go to the store to look at paint… gonna have to do alot of painting this week. But I what I can say is that I am just glad that this thing is finally becoming a reality! It is something that we have wanted for years but have never been able to do until now. Well that’s all for now. Check back every once in a while for more progress updates. I’m gonna try my best to keep everyone up to date. Stay cool.

Pedro

It’s been a couple days since the last post and I am glad to report that things are moving along well. Here’s where we stand as of right now. There are 3 awesome new scripts that are ready to go. But we can’t start filming yet. Why is that you ask? Because as we speak, I am in the process of making an actual set for The 7 O’Clock News! That’s the big news! For the first time in almost five years The 7 O’Clock News will have a legitimate set. I have spent the past several days drawing up a design for it, going to the hardware store and looking at different materials to use for the set, marking out the footprint in the studio etc. It is going to take the show to whole new levels of awesome… or not.. guess it all really comes down to the writing. Tomorrow I am going to go and pick up all of the material to finally start building this thing. OH! and before I forget! other big news! Say goodbye to the logo that you have come to know. I have also created a new logo for the show and I gotta say, it looks pretty cool. I can’t wait til everything is put together and ready to go so that you can all can see all of the awesome new things that we are working on! Til then… stay cool.

Pedro

It’s been a LONG time since there have been any new episodes of The 7 O’Clock News but that is all about to change. Within the past week there have been some things starting to take form behind the scenes. It may still be a little while before the new episodes are online, we still have to figure out those details. But what I can say is that when the show return later this summer, it is going to be quite different. A reboot of sorts. There are still alot of details to be sorted out but as of right now there are 3 new scripts that have been written and possibly new sets… the only thing I can say now is stay tuned!

Pedro

It’s almost here! Episode 33 premieres tomorrow! I finished post production on the episode last night and it is all ready to go. We’ve had so many episodes in production lately that it has been difficult at times to remember what episode I am working on, but now all that is left to do is finish filming episode 34, but at this point I am not sure exactly when it will be released. Right now I am looking at either a December 14th or December 21st release date. I guess it all matters on how quickly production wraps and how quickly I am able to get the episode through post production. But all of that aside, make sure to check back tomorrow for episode 33!

Pedro

It has been a very busy few days. Filming the rest of episode 32 and then doing some filming for episode 33 and 34 as well. Then there was the busy holiday and then last night I was finally able to put episode 32 together. With that being said the episode should be live within the next few hours! While i’m writing this I might as well announce that Episode 33 is going to be released on December 7th. Make sure to check that out! Check back for the episode as well as more updates!

Pedro

I just finished the script for Episode 34, aka, part 2 of the Christmas episode. It is going to be one of the most epic episodes we’ve ever had! With that being said, the next few weeks are going to be kinda crazy with filming and editing and all that awesome stuff, but I am just so excited about whats to come that I couldnt keep it a secret for long. Check back for more updates!

Pedro

Today is going to be a very busy day for TNIWWT. Later on today we are going to finish filming Episode 32, and then possibly shoot some of Episode 33. Also, I have spent the morning updating the news banner for Thanksgiving and Christmas. One of which you will see very soon. I’ll probably post later about how filming goes today. Until then, check back for more updates!

Pedro

Hope everyone had a good weekend. I spent my weekend working on episode 32, which is tenetively going to be released on Thanksgiving day. As of right now about half of the episode has been filmed and right now I believe that the plan is to film the rest tomorrow. But the new episodes don’t stop there! I finished the script for episode 33 last week and depending on how filming goes tomorrow, we may film some of episode 33 too. Wish I could say the same for episode 34 but… I kind of have to still write that one first, but don’t worry, it’s on my to do list. Check back for more updates.

Pedro

I bring good news! There will be 4 new episodes before the year is over! The thanksgiving episode is coming soon, then we have a two-part christmas episode planned and to top it all off, we also have a new year’s episode in the works! I just finished the script for the thanksgiving episode yesterday, also yesterday we pitched the christmas and new years episodes and it looks like we are going ahead with both. It’s exciting! But with all of these great ideas it means that there is alot of writing in my future so I should probably be getting to that. Check back for more updates!

Pedro

I just put the finishing touches on the script for Episode 32, aka, the thanksgiving episode. Production is gonna be starting soon and the episode will either be out the Tuesday before or the Tuesday after thanksgiving, right now its a little too soon to know exactly when the episode will be out. But I can promise that is gonna be one of the best episodes we’ve had this year. I know, one of the best episodes? Yes, of the three episodes released this year, Episode 32 is going to be the best! It kind of my fault that this is only the fourth episode we’ve had this year but I’m trying to fix that. Check back for more updates coming soon!
