Are you getting all these videos of classic TWC from random people?  I'm kind of surprised that some of these videos even exist considering the years here.  Things were so different back then on television when I was born.

The video in this particular case was posted by former TWC OCM Andre Bernier. :yes:

The Weather Star on that local forecast must be the Weather Star 1, considering this was only a little over 2 months after TWC's debut. I like this a lot! :thrilled: :happy: :)

If you look at the 22:00 mark of the video......

There is a hand writing some names down on a whiteboard....those names look familiar.
