I guess both Paul and Alex are taking turns on who will be updating the severe weather outbreak. I can tell you it's pretty rough.  :hmm:

Alexandra Steele hosting EEWC, or as she called it, the "late night, intimate hour" of Evening Edition :bleh:
Bow-chicka-wow-wow...   :P

I was digging around in the TWC Media Kit website and I found the attached logo under the Weather Center tab. Think it was just a mix up or that it's an actual show planned in the not too distant future?

Does this mean they're gonna move Steph and Mike to Weather Center or will they drop the "Beyond The Forecast" title and add "Weather Center?" Ohh man...:(
But we'll see in the future

Ugh, I had a bad feeling something like this would happen once they branded that one hour of the show "Evening Edition". Abrams & Bettes just doesn't pull in the ratings, most likely due to the timeslot. Odd how they redesigned the WC logo in the A&B style; not sure if that means they're going to increase the reach of the WC brand again or if Abrams & Bettes are just going to host the one crappy hour of WC per day at 4 ET. :(

They might shift Weather Center to 4-6, then PME to 6-8.

either way I don't like it...A&B should be 2 hours, 7-9, and EE should be 9-11 again...just more changes, not for the better  :no:

I agree with this person above me!!! :twothumbs:

I guess due to the shortage of OCMS I think they will host Weather Center AND Beyond The Forecast.

its not due to shortage but rather ratings...Beyond the Forecast will likely be discontinued in the near future.

as much as I don't want to hear this, it's most likely true...ever since they relaunched in June it's been downhill, especially for A&B and WV...both shows lost their individuality, and are just like any other show...I really don't want to think about this but it appears that we are starting to head back to the "one show name" domination of the early 2000s...

Ohh man... :sos:
I guess you guys are right, when BTF first premiered it was a fun show when they had the Audience Barometers and other stuff, now today they dropped it and added the weekly planner. I'm thinkin "it's just a normal show, the only difference is the name".

Weekend View did went downhill big time, ever since Dao Vu left.

But still we'll see in the near future. The only good thing is that I'll be able to see my two favorite OCMs.

Here's some interesting information:

Mar 22-Mar 28: Why I Love Spring Week
Apr 14-Apr 25: Green is Universal
May 10-May 16: Great Escapes Week
Jun 7-Jun 13: Hurricane Week
Jun 12-Jun 18: Why I Love Summer Week
Aug 9-Aug 15: Back to School Week
Sep 13-Sep 19: Survival Week
Oct 11-Oct 17: Why I Love Fall
Nov 15-Nov 21: Green is Universal
Dec 20-Dec 26: Holiday Week

Interesting - seems the "Welcome to [season name here]" campaign is gone - and replaced by "Why I Love [season name here] Week." Also - it appears as if they want a specialized campaign every month or so (hurricane and summer week actually overlap!).

I noticed that as well...I'm kinda bummed...I like the "welcome to" campaign...and if "Why I love Winter" was an example, more people are likely to be hating [event/topic here] during the week lol
