TWC didn't know NBC was buying them at that time. When the HD relaunch happened, there were still two main bidders (NBC and Time Warner).

Well sorry... :wacko:

I thought that TWC was airing the promos in letterbox because of the way NBC did HD to SD stuff. And after seeing that video I had linked, it reminded me of how the other major networks did their HD to SD stuff, simply by cropping 16:9 to 4:3 instead of letterboxed 16:9 on a 4:3 screen.

Just how they decided to do it. NBC wouldnt bother interfering with that kind of stuff anyway

I agree. Earth Day is next Thursday, and I can highly assure you there may be a surprise "Green is Universal" week next week. Just a guess.

It's not a surprise, I remember reading it in the press room awhile back.

what I meant by "surprise", is that TWC never announced it on air, iirc.
