The most noticeable change was the flooring with an extra bit of black and silver coating to it.Great scoop! Which, of course, begs the question whether they have plans to do anything apart from the floor, some new desk and most likely, back-end tech underneath them? From what I saw, all the screens in Studio A remain for now where they were, even those that are a little sub-par by modern standards.

The 9pm hour on Monday was a bit interesting, with Wolf roaming between studios A and B during recorded reports and ad breaks. The desk segments were done in B, while the opening segment had Wolf standing in A at a smaller videowall to the left of the curved screen (strange decision, pre-Covid Wolf was opening his show standing at the proper-sized video wall to the right of the curved screen).
Also they exploited John King's favourite touch screen with Jim Sciutto - although I'm not sure whether they were in A, like during Election nights, or they brought one in B (like they did in October for Jake's 9pm gig). A split-screen throw to the correspondent standing in B suggests that it might have been in A.
