KCBA - Man On The Couch and Central Coast Deals

Man On The Couch and Central Coast Deals

Man on the Couch is a promo that consists of a man sitting on a couch and showing previews for upcoming shows on KCBA and KION (including its second digital subchannel), as well as on KCOY and KKFX. Each program preview consists either of a man commenting on the preview or saying the time slot and the branding. All four station's schedules are shown on its website, although Man on the Couch's website itself is hosted by KION. "Man on the Couch" is not shown on KMUV due to its programming from Telemundo, and the fact that the station is in Spanish.

Central Coast Deals is a marketing promo shown on KCBA, KION (including its second digital subchannel), KCOY, and KKFX. The promo consists of a deal that appears to attract consumers and giving gift certificates that generally is 50 percent off the discount price of what would be the normal price of a gift certificate. It is noted that it is exclusive to those four stations. Broadcasts for KCBA and KION uses a 16:9 format for station ID's, however, no station ID is shown (KION's second digital subchannel continues to show it in 4:3 ratio). There is a Spanish version of "Central Coast Deals" shown on KMUV, although it uses a Spanish version of the slogan.

Famous quotes containing the words man, couch, central, coast and/or deals:

    The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime, and the punishment of his guilt.
    John Philpot Curran (1750–1817)

    Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
    In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
    There I couch when owls do cry.
    On the bat’s back I do fly
    After summer merrily.
    Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
    Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Et in Arcadia ego.
    [I too am in Arcadia.]
    Anonymous, Anonymous.

    Tomb inscription, appearing in classical paintings by Guercino and Poussin, among others. The words probably mean that even the most ideal earthly lives are mortal. Arcadia, a mountainous region in the central Peloponnese, Greece, was the rustic abode of Pan, depicted in literature and art as a land of innocence and ease, and was the title of Sir Philip Sidney’s pastoral romance (1590)

    And ladies with their nails prepared for tea
    And sunken barques that coast the shores of hell
    And old men vacant of propriety
    Have faintly rung a next-door neighbor’s bell.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Americans are very friendly and very suspicious, that is
    what Americans are and that is what always upsets the
    foreigner, who deals with them, they are so friendly
    how can they be so suspicious and they are so
    suspicious how can they be so friendly but they just
    are and that certainly has something to do with their
    having tucked their capital, their capitals away.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
