Programming and Graphics / PM Edition, ugh
« on: September 24, 2008, 06:12:21 PM »
When will we finally see a new anchor pairing for PM Edition (weekdays)? Sam and Betty  have no chemistry, charisma, or real in-depth meteorological analysis. I rarely watch but caught a bit of it today....the fact that they have to bring in Steph Abrams to help with the tropical update (does this happen regularly?!?) is embarrassing not to mention just extremely awkward.

Obviously TWC feels the same way as these two were benched completely during both Storm Alerts and they aren't even trusted to do the tropical update without help. Apparantly PM Edition is one of their highest rated timeslots; I really can't imagine TWC is going to keep these two together in this spot much longer. Especially when the weekend PME team easily outclasses the more visible weekday PME team.

Who'd you like to see hosting? I could see Carl Parker/Kim Perez working well. Or Adam Berg, Mike Seidel, Kristin Dodd, Dave, Kristina Abernanthy..... Hopefully we'll see a shuffle with Alexandra leaving soon for maternity leave and the new schedule...

OCMs & Personalities / Favorite pairings
« on: April 21, 2008, 12:35:21 AM »
Which past/present OCM pairings are your favorites? Good chemistry, entertaining, and competent.

Sharon and Rich on EEWC have been really quite good lately. They're both very articulate and have lightened up quite a bit. I just wish that they would be able to show radars and other time-sensitive data; not having this diminishes the program quite a bit. Nonetheless, when I ask myself if I should tune in more often than not I end up saying, "Yeah, let's do that."

I liked Betty Davis and Adam Berg on weekends last summer. Both their current pairings aren't quite as successful. Both have a good sense of humor which obviously works well.

I'm also liking Bill and Sam, although I don't get to see them very often, from what I've seen I think Sam complements Bill very well. Too bad he has to be so tanned all the time (but that's a different topic for a different thread, haha).

What about yours?
