Out with the old, in with Young Street


Henry Guerrero and Angelique Tege have merged onto Belo8's Young Street. Canceled are the station's La Vida and Metro programs.

Belo8 quietly has folded La Vida, aimed at Hispanic viewers, and Metro, which targeted a black audience.

Its respective anchors, Henry Guerrero and Angelique Tege, now are co-anchoring the new Young Street, which premiered on Jan. 6th. The station describes it as "a look at the lifestyles of young adults in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, including music, nightlife, food and fashion." Young Street also is the address of Belo8's downtown Dallas offices.

The new program airs at 5 p.m. Sundays, where it now no longer will have to compete against Dallas Cowboys games. Last Sunday's well-kept secret drew just 9,742 D-FW homes opposite the season-ending Cowboys-Giants playoff game.
