Post by: skaloveexx33 on December 04, 2014, 03:09:57 PM
Finally remembered my login for this site after two years..whoops  :blushing:

Anyway,in case anyone didn't see,Alexandra Steele is back on TWC (temporarily) filling in alongside Dave Schwartz this afternoon. Feels like I'm back in middle school. :happy:

OMG  :thrilled:. I haven't seen her since 6th grade! Someone please DVR her and upload it. I hope she stays permanently! Now only if TWC changes it's graphics, add terrain on every map, and extend locals , and add the instrumentals/Jazz back. Too bad your really going to have to convince and bug TWC for them to do so.

Alexandra Steele returns to The Weather Channel! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTkwHbEYDYc#ws)

So glad that Alex is back on TWC!  :happy:  She is one of my all-time favorite OCMs.  :yes:

So I'm assuming she'll be a freelance fill-in person who appears occasionally?

She said she would also be filling in tomorrow,so I would assume the answer to that is yes. I wish she'd come back full time though,she was one of my all-time favorite OCMs.

OMG!!!!
:wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:
COULD THIS REALLY BE HAPPENING?!?!  :thrilled:  I would've never thought I'd see my all-time favorite OCM back on TWC! Cantore, Schwartz and Steele - you can't pick a better trio. Reminds me of middle school. I seriously hope she gets to stay full time, but seeing her on TWC even temporary, brings back great memories of good times.

I wonder if she was effected by CNN's recent massive layoffs?

She was still there? I thought she had already left a long time ago, but then again I don't watch CNN so I wouldn't have known either way.

Also nothing against Alex, but I'm still not comprehending how it makes financial sense to keep hiring OCMs that are randomly floating around from show to show or worse yet they keep gutting live programming more and more every year so there's hardly anywhere to place them to begin with. There are OCMs that are barely being seen as it is already. I just really don't understand how this makes logical or common sense. :no:

to be honest, they should really fill in that 8pm-11pm, and 11pm-1am slots with live weather. at that point, most, if not all of the ocm's will get a steady time slot!

Like Ryan Goswick and Warren Madden?  That would be great!   :dance:

I'd love to see Kristina Abernathy and Sharon Resultan come back too.   :yes:

Turned TWC on earlier and noticed this. Came as a shock. One thing TWC needs to do is not have WCL on all day, every day. And if they do, they need to name it something other than Weather Center Live, maybe except for the 6-8pm edition.

They work less hours a week though, which still saves TWC some money (less overtime pay).

If it was me, I'd bring back Evening Edition. But that's my opinion.

Wow, first seeing Paul Goodloe on in the morning and now this!

It's good to see Alexandra on.  She seems more in her element at TWC than on CNN.

This is really strange that Alexandra Steele is back but strange and unexpected things can happen.

so she settled her lawsuit with TWC, or did she ever file one as reported in 2011?

Can TWC handle 2 OC "queens" (Steele and Abrams)?  Cantore is the big dog, fortunately, and has earned his status.

Me? I'm a Kelly Cass fan   :D

That's news to me.

I know Marny Stanier and Nicole Mitchell did.  I think Hilary Andrews did too.

Alexandra Steele and Dave Schwartz are on WCL this afternoon. Great to see them paired once again!
