From Outgoing WBTV president Danny Washington.

"As one door closes, another one opens. "As you know, Warner Brothers Television Network will sign off for good at midnight Sept. 18, and will merge into The WB, I want to say thank you. Thanks to Time Warner for their patience in the network since we launched in 1977. We had some ups and some downs, but in the end, they have been very supportive. Even when The WB Television Network came on the scene, Time Warner still showed patience in us, and we are truely grateful.

I also would like to thank the people behind the scenes on our shows we have shown. They worked day and night on making WBTV the best that it can be. As we enter into a new chapter with The WB, I hope they continue their hard work that they've shown throughout the years.

Finally, I want to thank you, America, our viewers. You watched us. You turned us on because we turned you on. You were our measuring stick, and you tuned in and enjoyed our shows throughout the years. May you continue to enjoy the shows we have planned for The WB.

Thank you, America, and a fond farewell from all of us on Warner Brothers Television Network."
