I think I might actually buy the DVD's... only because the network needs money. If I want history, I'd go next door (according to my channel lineup) to the History Channel.

err dont think your really going to help TWC. Just encourage them to do more programs like this :pinch:

LOL, yeah your sizable $20 donation won't go very far. :rofl:

They'll definitely make a lot of money out of it, though. Although most of us classic TWC fans don't like the show, its ratings are still very high.

Hahaha too funny. I bet they would put that introduction. I can sense it.

i object! :hammer:
i cant understand why all of you are dissing the show..? i watch that series and i seem to find it (*ahem*) educational and informative. although i do find it quite excessive when they advertise the show before every local forecast.. although advertising is used to create an awareness of the program existing.. i do find that some of the other programs shown do lack some substance, whereas this show, they try to tie in weather's involvement in past historical events, even using some good historic visuals and re-enactment scenes to help rebuild the scene in history. in a nutshell, the program functions like this: the begining shows a quick synopsis of the entire show, then the historical pieces are explained, after that, the show explains how those historical pieces changed how our lives became impacted (like laws added, branches of government added or local/government procedeures added/changed).

Brian, you just have to understand that some of us have been watching TWC for a long time and are just not going to be pleased unless they take off all the long form and go back to good old fashioned weather. :D

while i cant argue with you on that case because i have been watching twc since the early '90s and seen transition of changes throughout the course of the years, and some changes are rather better than others. what is certaintly a pain is tuning in while at work and a long form program is on and it takes greater than a half hour to see a detailed LF or an OCM narriated report. i generally watch WWCH after midnight anyway, its better than watching Adam Berg rant on about his love for football and also hearing him say: chooseday :-p

WWCH is probably the best long-form made since the earliest Storm Stories episodes. It just suffers from "rerun abuse"...having the same program air for one entire week gets tiring. And it seems that the popular second-season eps are repeating AGAIN (The Titanic comes to mind).
