I like fireworks, but won't be watching "Pyros" or the other two shows.   :no:  Maybe "Hurricane Hunters". :dunno:

I refuse to watch Hurricane Hunters because of the factor that the squadron the production crew filmed is the same squadron Nicole Mitchell is a part of, and based on what I've read and heard, NBC asked the producers not to film Nicole Mitchell. Such hatred. :thumbdown:

Isn't it ironic that this show is like the only new show this year to actually have some serious relevance to weather yet it's clouded around the fact that they are being sued over work discrimination by a former employee who happens to work as a hurricane hunter? How many times must they keep FAILING before they wake up and do something right for once?  :rofl2:

Iceberg Hunters premiered tonight and for me it is so boring.
If this show gets decent ratings I'll be surprised.

To be fair, the show's name strongly suggested it would be boring.

In all seriousness, they could have came up with a more appealing name to fool us into thinking it's interesting.

Sure, the show titles might be stupid  :rolleyes:  but the network is just trying to make more money. Not to mention they're also probably praying for good ratings...  :hmm:

Okay, I'm bumping this because I have to get this off my chest. After The Weather Channel talks about global warming for so long, they talk about how sea levels are going to rise... and they glorify people going and getting the ice that is melting to cause those problems. WTH are they even using the icebergs for? I can't get myself to watch it... or any of the other shows to be honest. They just don't seem interesting. I watched Pyros a couple times around July 4th, but it was kind of boring and had little to do with weather, if at all.

I think they sell them for use as drinking water.   :rolleyes:

I was LMAO when I saw the promo.  TWC pro global warming and making a show of people who are depleting the icebergs for profit.    :wacko:

The Weather Channel announced today that it has greenlit “Deadliest Space Weather,” (working title) a new series that reveals extreme weather conditions that occur throughout our solar system, and explores the premise “What would happen if these harsh conditions could ever prevail on Earth?” Produced by Flight 33 (“Life After People”), “Deadliest Space Weather” features 6x 30-minute episodes and will premiere in January 2013.

Seems like a show that should be on the Science Channel. At least it's not a non weather reality show.

That actually sounds like a very interesting show. Somewhat like When Weather Changed History.
