Dave was actually on the ball today, more than he was Wednesday and Thursday with Vivian. I only got to see the 2 PM CT hour of Weather Center, but the whole thing was very entertaining yet informative at the same time - Dave at his best. He's worked well with Vivian in the past, but he seemed a little dull with her this week. I wonder if he was feeling all right.

As for Dave saying "Day Planner," he was reading off the prompter. When Betty went to read it the next hour, She tripped over that part of the script when it came up on the prompter but corrected the show title herself. That's surprising coming from the person who once called herself Adam Berg because the prompter said so.

I was actually glad to hear that; the last few nights seemed to be relatively devoid of catchphrases.

Just now...
Rich: Let's see how the temperatures look with Sharon...
Sharon (mic cut off): ...that.

EEWC is doing live severe weather coverage; will someone please tell me WHY they didn't preempt WWCH tonight with all of the severe weather going on? They just don't care anymore. Pretty shameful.

His only regular weekly appearance was Wednesday overnight with Paul Emmick for both hours of EEWC. (and possibly Weather Center before EE existed, not sure on that)

Besides that, he only appeared as a fill-in and on certain weekend afternoons.

Some nights, I think. I haven't watched as much this week since I've been going to bed a little earlier.

Look at this on the bright side; if Bob Stokes never would have sexually harassed Hillary, we never would have had the awesome pairing of Dave and Hillary for those oh-so-fun 11 months.

This story was also covered on today's TMZ on syndicated TV according to the promos I saw earlier. This story is really starting to get hot!

What happened to Alex? After two weeks on vacation, she came back for Monday and Tuesday but is gone again tonight. I wonder if she's sick.

Rich just called the show "West Coast Evening Edition".

Never quite heard it used that way before...

Now Cheryl's on First Outlook this morning as the travel analyst.

That must be odd for her. First Outlook used to be her show.

Stephen, if you read the lawsuit closely, you'll get some insight as to the real reason why Melissa left. (Read: She complained about Bob Stokes and got forced out.)

It's a shame Bob caused so much chaos over there.

BTW, Bob also worked with Cheryl Lemke and Eboni Deon for a time. I wonder if he harassed either of them.

They waited until Memorial Day weekend last year.

BTW, they're still using the winter opener on WWC; the summer opener usage only happens every now and then.

It looks like someone else has recently sued TWC for sex discrimination, as well. Lots of legal fun for TWC management going on.
