Hurray! Goodbye Forecast Earth! :clap: I wonder if any long-form programming will be discontinued?

I doubt it. Long form is cheaper than live.  :yes:

Hooray! I hope they can air less long-form programming, especially on the weekends and weekday afternoons!

They'll probably air more now with less OCMs to work all these shifts.

Unfortunately, I'm sure we'll see plenty of re-runs, even if they did can the FE crew.  :rolleyes:

My guess is the Forecast Earth desk isn't going to go away... The show and the climate team may have...

She was there before the rest of the team, so I guess she gets to stay and continue the propaganda on her own; heck, maybe she'll become a global warming frontend for the whole NBC family of networks.
