It's been about 3 1/2 years now. Isn't that about long enough to get used to NBC being permanently apart of TWC right now and move on and get over it? It's not fair that NBC has sensationalized TWC as an entertainment network and as a whole isn't what it used to be, but life isn't fair. At this point you shouldn't even care anymore.

I agree with the post above. Who cares now? One question I want to know is why some of us act like we depend on TWC for weather? Half of us or more try to predict it. Seriously, I'm done caring about nbc and instead of being opposed to it, I'm looking at the positives. I like the idea of how TWC is more of like a talk show now, with weather. I understand not being happy about loosing weather coverage, but you don't need it do you? You have more access to weather content on the internet than you'll ever see on TWC. Face it, we watch because we want to be entertained now or just to get the national outlook of weather. IMO, turn it into a entertainment channel with weather on the side, I'm done caring. Its gone from what it used to be, get used to it. Its old now seeing complaints like "Oh, there not covering weather" really, have you not had enough time to adjust? Not trying to be rude or mean, just showing you the reality.  :rolleyes:

Ok, look. I was just pointing out the NBC logo on the camera. I know that NBC owns TWC. Don't get your panties in a wad about it...

That's understandable, but because the NBC logo appears next to TWC's logo on a camera doesn't make it the end of the world.

I agree. My biggest beef with TWC is the whole "Primed for Excitement" schedule. It was comforting that every weeknight, you could turn at any given moment to extended hours of Weather Center, and see full LFs, not the 1:00 LFs. Now, you have to wait until Sunday night for that. During the week, there is absolutely no weather coverage (even when there is severe weather) in primetime, except for 7 and 10pm.

Never mind the fact that Comcast now owns NBC, anyway.

It will be interesting to see if the new studio overhaul brings in more of the corporate synergy.

Trevor, you shouldn't have a temper over a logo, it seems kinda childish just saying.

I won't be surprised if in the future there is a logo that has both TWC and NBC adjacent to each other (tv or online).

I was thinking the other day that we might see the same thing. Like the nbc logo part, but with TWC where it said NBC.   :noexpression:

To me, and I think most others on this forum, the use of the "furious" emoticon (:furious:) means that you're having a temper or are upset about something. ;)

Notice the camera and the NBC logo :furious:


But maybe I'm just out of my mind... :whistling2:

I actually meant for that to mean angry. Another case of misinterpretation. It was the only emoticon that showed anger, other than :censored:, but I wasn't that mad about it. I wouldn't even call it being mad. Just ticked off.
