I liked the additions Lynda Kinkade and Robyn Curnow. Robyn's International Desk was good too. I will say I like the warmer colors for CNN Newsroom they used then.CNNI still had weekend newscasts (and Robyn and Lynda) well past 2014. Regular weekend newscasts only went away at the start of the pandemic in March 2020. And they’ve never fully come back.
Looking through some HLN and HLN in Atlanta Stuff, I remember Evening Express , they launched an evening show with Ryan Smith, Clark Howard, and Isha Sesay.
They had the studio in this set up.

Also, when the old "In Session" what used to be called Court TV News programming, moved to Atlanta they had a studio there too, I'm not sure what it was called ... HLN would use it too at times.

The 6ish hours from 12a ET to 6am ET aren’t nothing though!! And CNNI is far more likely to add newscasts on weekends these days for the benefit of Max.
Ah, I remember In Session! That was how they rebranded live programming when Court TV became TruTV. And then they got rid of live programming on TruTV altogether, like they would do years later to HLN as well.
Side note…. Court TV exists again AND is actually based in Atlanta with some of the same anchors…. But it’s owned by Scripps.
I think Nancy Grace also used that In Session studio…. And later on, the CNN weather team used it, I believe.
