Title: 4 New Shows- WX Proof, Caught On Camera, Tornado Chasers, Wildfire
Post by: TWCToday on May 14, 2009, 11:07:51 PM
Wx Proof
A brand new series on The Weather Channel, produced by Emmy Award-winning Peacock Productions, "Wx Proof" explores the "what ifs" and "could that really happens" of extreme weather conditions. Our weather testers will expose everyday items to extraordinary conditions to see how long they can survive. (Series premieres second quarter 2010)

Not starting for a while at least but I think we all know what lo8 promos are going to be on from January- June :rolleyes:

\"Wx Proof" explores the "what ifs" and "could that really happens" of extreme weather conditions. O

Sounds like another show on TWC.

Yea it sounds like a take off of It Could Happen Tomorrow. Wonder if they are getting rid of that branding. :thinking:

This sounds like a spin-off to ICHT. :thumbdown:

Sounds like a mix of ICHT and Commando Weather almost.

Every time I hear a new long-form idea, they all seem to sound the same to me. :hmm:  I can only give "Storm Stories" credit for being unique.  We've had way too many hypothetical "what if" shows lately.

Because apparently the folks at NBC is more satisfied with having their own programming air on TWC. <_<

It Could Happen Tomorrow was produced by Atlas Media, and this new show is by NBC.

Oh, God. Please don't let long-form dominate the entire schedule. I'm grateful for a weeknight schedule without any long-form shows.

Isn't their Vortex 2 project enough for tornado chasing?

Caught on Camera, judging by the name, looks like a carbon copy of Full Force Nature.

I wonder what Wildfire will be like? It might be good if it's something like Axe Men or Deadliest Catch...

Seeing how firefighters fight fires behind the scenes would be a cool show

All these shows are good for the Discovery Channel, not TWC. :no:

Soon enough, TWC will be the Discovery Channel. :(

Four new long-form shows > trillionth playing of <insert one of FFN/SS/WWCH/ICHT>

(I'm convinced TWC has about fourteen different endings to the Hindenberg and Titanic eps...there's NO WAY people still watch them in their original form :) )

Pretty soon, the only weather content on TWC would be the blue bar and the local forecasts.

Oh my goodness it sounds like Tornado Chasers is a spoof of Discovery Channel's Storm Chasers.   :hmm:
