It's completely different from what we are used to. At this moment, I've no idea what will happen to RTL Nieuws. The "RTL" part of that brand was so recognizable, that they placed it on all logos and used it as corporate logo for "RTL Nederland". I think RTL will follow the German version, just "Nieuws" behind the blocks with a blue colour scheme. But after 9 years, a completely new look for RTL Nieuws, is also justified.

I've only seen two logos and an end board of a promo. The execution has to be spot on, because it's very difficult to copy television graphics from one region to another.

I agree that a new look for RTL Nieuws is probably needed - though saying that, the current look has certainly aged very well (IMO anyway). This is what it looks like, for reference:

I think if anyone can make the graphics work, it's RTL Nederland - they generally have really good graphic design.
