Programming and Graphics / Re: Fictitious TWC Programming Schedule
« on: July 09, 2019, 11:04:06 AM »
This is what I came up with and posted on my Facebook profile back on November 11, 2017..

===

THE WEATHER CHANNEL SCHEDULE IDEA

This is an idea I came up with, a few notes first:
* I originally came up with a "WU Late Night" for 11pm-2am, but bumped it an hour earlier and renamed it "Weather Center Geeks" for some more variety
* "Reality / Wx Geeks" indicates either Reality Programming or Wx Geeks, depending on the day - which allows variation and/or new premieres as needed
* This would drop the amount of reality programming down to 2 hours on weekdays, and 3 hours on weekends
* Local on the 8's segments would occur twice every hour, all day
** Taking cues from Weather Underground and Reality Programming blocks
** Would become 2 minutes long again
** Shifted to :28 and :58 past the hour

Mon-Fri
1am-4am Weather Center Night
4am-5am Reality Programming
5am-6am AMHQ Early
6am-9am AMHQ
9am-12pm Weather Center Morning
12pm-3pm Weather Center Afternoon
3pm-6pm Weather Center Evening
6pm-9pm Weather Underground
9pm-10pm Reality / Wx Geeks
10pm-1am Weather Center Geeks

Sat-Sun
1am-4am Weather Center Night
4am-6am Reality Programming
6am-9am AMHQ Weekend
9am-12pm Weekend Recharge
12pm-3pm Weather Center Weekend
3pm-6pm Weather Center Weekend
6pm-9pm WU Weekend
9pm-10pm Reality / Wx Geeks
10pm-1am Weather Center Geeks

Due to the changes, it sounds like they are now extending their coverage to Midnight..

My comment to TWC Classics group on Facebook: "I've watched for the first hour and 15 minutes of the changes, the traditional LOT8's cues at :18 and :48 otherwise it's relegated to the LDL always, and sidebar for a minute on the other 8's.. the logo is now LOT8's all the time, TWC logo itself is directly above the time only when they aren't on commercials.. also, if there's a commercial when the sidebar is suppose to cue.. they will do it momentarily after arriving back from commercials"

When the buyout was announced, they officially took ownership. So for all practical purposes, the change is happening as a result of that.

As of 9:17pm ET they are no longer live, unsure what time they stopped - maybe 8pm or 9pm?

WUTV was extended by an hour last night (by surprise), and then after 9pm ET they were said to be doing cut-ins every half hour as a result of the storm over the Midwest and Great Lakes region

I saw LOT8's a few times yesterday and noticed they had it themed for Veteran's Day. They also had the High Wind Warning that's issued for here on it too, which is the first time I've seen a warning on it compared to solely on the LDL

This might be relevant to the changes that have been occurring, a tweet from Jim Cantore: "And its LOADED with weather!!  Looking like the old Weather Channel again :)" https://twitter.com/JimCantore/status/663687015343521794

Either it's been fixed, or the one here isn't effected as I just checked.
