News Series 2000 Plus

News Series 2000 Plus is a television news music package composed by American musician Frank Gari. This package was based on an alternate version of the News Series 2000 package. This package was made after Lalo Schifrin, who composed the "Tar Sequence" score from the soundtrack of the 1967 movie Cool Hand Luke, demanded an increase in royalties, causing the Cool Hand Luke theme and News Series 2000 package to be phased out from use in the early 1990s. Most of the updated themes from News Series 2000 was recomposed into the News Series 2000 Plus package by changing the instrumentation, avoiding any elements of the Tar Sequence score.

WLS-TV in Chicago was the first station to commission custom themes from this package in September 1992, and the station continues to use the same music to this day. In 2001, Gari composed WLS's current morning theme by incorporating this package's signature into the First News package. Before that, the station continued to use a morning theme from the News Series 2000 Package. Currently, WLS-TV has used the same music package longer than any other station in the city of Chicago.
