Before Trammell was playing along with the emergency feed; that last go-around was silent but with the regular satellite LF.

Everything Else TWC / Re: This just in from the Forecast Earth desk...
« on: August 26, 2008, 09:05:52 PM »It's not their fault; they obviously want to keep their jobs and avoid being fired by whatever supervisor is forcing them to say that....I'm sick of hearing about the freakin' Forecast Earth desk! Obviously all of the OCMs have been instructed to mention the "Forecast Earth desk" at least once per hour even for stats that are only vaguely related to climate change. I wonder what genius came up with this sickening idea... *cringe*I was soooo going to post this too! I am ready to KILL the next meteorologist who says that!

Sweet. I guess the long-form block was indeed just for final rehearsals/taping of Storm Session. Speaking of Storm Session, tonight Steph humorously tried to compare her outlandish prediction for the worst case scenario to what Fay is doing by heading to the Northeast now.
Anyone notice how the lights next to the city backdrop have been out since at least yesterday? I wonder if that's intentional or if it's something that needs to be fixed...

Two things:
1) What was the Weather Center schedule like today? Did they do three hours, or did they do the ICHT/FFN nonsense?
2) I noticed that the lights on Steph for her part of the 6:30 PM CT block were out for a short time but then came on later in the segment. I guess they forgot to turn her lights on. Oops.

It's just a one-off episode, but it might have future editions about other topics since it was given its own name.

Tonight has been a weird night so far; for some reason, Carl and Kristina did both hours of PME even though there was no preemption tonight.
Also, both PME and EE took a trip into the past by using their respective "signature" production music from the Aug 07 - June 08 era. I wonder what's up with that.
EE also started the show with a live teaser like they used to use earlier in the summer where Adam (or Kristin) stands at the wall with the 4-split storyboard.
PME also used their regional openers for the first time that I can remember, and man, is that animation cool or what? I really like it; hopefully they'll use it again soon so you folks can see what I'm talking about.

Kevin wore a white suit before, but I don't think anyone else has. Kevin is just badass like that.

Trammell again at 7:38 CT. Did they bring back that bug from last year somehow?

Hmmm...never knew that before. It always looked like the Intellistar was inserting it.
