Major schedule changes on the way
« on: February 14, 2009, 10:44:38 AM »
According to my Zap2it guide there's some major schedule changes on the way starting March 1st. I checked the Zap2it.com website to try to confirm the changes but unfortunately the listings don't go out that far. However, I checked TV Guide.com and it confirms these changes so they seem legit to me.

Weekends
8-9PM - Storm Stories
10PM-12AM - PM Edition Weekend
1-4AM - PM Edition Weekend

Weekdays
2-3PM - It Could Happen Tomorrow
3-4PM - Full Force Nature
4-7PM - PM Edition
7-9PM - Weather Center

As I said in the General TWC thread, ICHT/FFN will supposedly air on 2-4 PM weekends too, I just saw a commercial for that.

That explains that mysterious "Weather Center with Abrams and Bettes" logo.

What's going to happen to Evening Edition??? :dunno:

And, what's this, PM Edition in the AMs? What is TWC thinking? :wacko:

Do you possibly have the new schedule for all of the day? :unsure: This is a MAJOR change, and I don't like it one bit. :thumbdown:

Apparently EE is no longer going to exist on the weekends.

Can't they put normal programming (so we can hear the primetime playlist) from 9pm to 12am and then put WWCH from 12-1am?

This schedule is messed up. A&B was one of TWC's most popular live shows. Tacking on additional long-form programming might be needed for the excessive layoffs, but it feels like there is way too much of it.

I can't believe people still watch Full Force Nature and IT Could Happen Tomorrow. Are they recycling the same few episodes or did they magically air first-runs?

Apparently it wasn't; the ratings were relatively low. (in 2007, at least)

I think now would be a good time to throw a little reminder out. We are an extremely small segment of TWC's viewership. Our likes and dislikes around here are not necessarily representative of the bigger picture. Those who go throwing statements out about this or that show being the most popular, or this or that OCM being most popular, or any other such statement ought to take that into consideration (or at least back up what they say).

BTW, where do you get these Zap2It guides for times so far in the future? Obviously the guide on their site only goes forward two weeks.
