If it does, it won't be anytime soon. Even if the site had to shut down, we can still have this forum to discuss TWC. Nothing to worry about at this point, IMO.

Why would TWC Today come to an end? I'm hoping this is just another case of Vic having no idea what he;s talking about.  :unsure:

Yes other people would say the same thing.

NBC has a history of taking down fan sites/related videos on youtube so that's why i'm speculating.

I'm sure this won't happen but nothing knows for sure.

I heard the reliable source was the News Blues website. They're pretty accurate, but you have to have a paid membership to view the story. :hmm:

There's only thing that's having me pay more than two seconds of my attention and I'm sure you all know what that is.

You talk about being so delicious.  My Lord.
