I won't be surprised if peter lik's debut causes enough uproar as the flick & a forecast did during that tragic severe outbreak

Hmm, with this snowstorm that will be developing in the NE, I wonder if TWC will preempt programming tonight... :P  :hammer:

Doubt it. They've been hyping this Peter Lik guy for weeks now. They didn't preempt last night when most of Florida was doused with rain and thunderstorms.  <_<

What we need this time of year is a large severe weather/tornado outbreak like what occurred last weekend for them to consider delaying his show from debuting. They could care less about a snowstorm.

That would really be neat. To pre-empt a premier would be good on TWC's end, especially if there was a HUGE severe weather outbreak.

I was looking back at a video I had from May 2009 and I noticed at the last microsecond this frame of Jim looking very weird the way he's slouched in that chair at the end of the desk. Whatever he's looking at on that laptop certainly has all of his attention.  :P (This was when he, Nicole and Kevin were hosting YWT)

Wow, a lot of TW headends are getting the IS2.
I wonder when Charter will start purchasing IS2 units...  :thinking:

I guess this severe outbreak is more significant than the one about a week ago? Why are they pre-empting for this one? :dunno:

WC is always on at this time on Sundays but indeed they did preempt today and i have the slightest idea as to why because with the way it seems this outbreak we have coming up is weaker than the one on Thursday but they didnt preempt for that one :no:

Because TWC is apologizing to viewers due to Peter Lik Dominating Thursday's Storm Coverage.

I get the feeling this one will be a wildcard especially tomorrow, we might have some surprises on our hands.

@Alex - I don't think Peter Lik's show has anything to do with it, this is the most widespread severe weather outbreak we are expected to have so far this year affecting nearly half the country.
