They said they were getting excellent video, but haven't shown anything yet.  Also said they were getting good video from the chase plane, or was it a tracking station?

No.. the excellent video was referring to second stage burn video, and a smooth handover to the next tracking station. However, they did mention that the first stage did the re-entry burn..

(Btw, RE-entry? I didn't think the first stage ever leaves the atmosphere?)
