I was sneaking around the twcmediakit.com website today and found this link:

Watch the video. Besides making you possibly gag as we watch the well formatted early morning programming (6-7am) go up in smoke, also notice towards the end the narrator says "...another reason why WE OWN THE WEATHER" If they choose that as a new slogan, seeing as we have no "official" one in use currently, I may just give up on TWC totally. Thoughts?

Yeah. Here's my IMO: I hate it. I'm so not watching this crap. Al is my worst nightmare. I may give up TWC as well. :thumbdown:

Yeah, I'm not too crazy about that slogan either. As I said a few days ago, I would find it impossible to completely give up on TWC. I sure wish they would go back to their "Live By It" slogan. I miss those days! :yes: :cry3:

TWC hasn't had a good, meaningful slogan since 1998. As much as I loved the Live By It era, I never understood what "Live By It" meant. Live by what? TWC? :unsure:
-
Interesting. In the video, toward the end before the slogan, a picture is shown of Stephanie Abrams walking over to sit down with Nicole Mitchell and Kevin Robinson... :thinking: Makes you wonder if she might be headed to YWT?

I assumed it was live by weather and TWC.

It was meant to say live by TWC's dependable forecasts and severe weather alerts to help you stay ahead of the weather. I think TWC should look back at the concepts that made their previous slogans so successful and use them to come up with a new one.
-
I don't like the new slogan I think its sucks. :thumbdown: I love the Live By It best. Why don't they just go back to that.
And oh yeah Anistorm can't agree with you more on that!!!!!

That was for the interview she did after announcing Wake Up with Al on Wednesday of last week. ;)

Live By It was my favorite era as far as slogans go. But how don't you understand it? They were trying to say everyone lives by the weather, so everyone should live by TWC.
One of the things I liked the most about it was it's versatility. Depending on the season or outdoor activity they were talking about, they could alter the slogan. For example, in a golf spot, use "Golf By It," etc.

Me neither! :no: And TWC hasn't had a good slogan since August 2005. I hope they get rid that annoying blue bar of doom when they relaunch. It's not fair to show the BBOD during the opening! :no: I agree with you, and if they still show the BBOD after May, I'm so giving up With TWC. :angry: Live By It is still my all time favorite TWC slogan. :thumbsup:
-
The blue bar isn't going anywhere. If it's there, then most of the viewers find it useful. It's not just there for a decoration.
-
What is the big deal about the blue bar, I don't get it. :dunno:
-

The one that shows weather conditions for other cities during a normal show. (Not the LDL one.)

Live By It was great!! WE OWN THE WEATHER... That sucks IMO

And plain defensive. Live by It was the bomb...i loved the theme music and station ID's they used before the lfs. I probably have a tape recorded with that ID somewhere.

I agree 100% and I miss it a lot!
-

I agreed.
-
"WE OWN THE WEATHER"? It sounds so badly generic. :( :thumbdown:
-
nah it won't be their new slogan -- if you watched the other videos one had "the more powerful connection" as a slogan. so i don't think they'll be "official"
-
Exactly what I though, Al. I think it's just the way they market themselves to advertisers.
-
I like "We Own the Weather" is a great possible slogan. I like it :yes:

no he means he doesn't get what the big deal is about TWC putting it on :thumbsup:
and a lot of people don't like it (including me) because it clutters up the screen way too much. If you have the HD feed it's even worse, with the LDA and BBOD...its just like WxPlus, and it's too cluttered
-

That is the main reason why I hate the BBOD so much.
Anyways, let's go back to topic.
We Own the Weather slogan rating:1/10
-

I loved the music they used on the 2001-2003 station IDs. Especially the winter ones.
-
I agree with the majority, We Own Weather is not any good. I liked most of their older slogans, Live By It was the best but I also like You need us TWC and Weather You Can Always Turn To.
"I need it, TWC, to make the most of every day!"
-
No one owns the weather, and it can easily make the best of us look like idiots. In reality, the weather owns us! :bleh:

Which is why I loved Live By It so much. Fit the weather and TWC perfectly.

Agreed. I miss the Live By It era so much! :cry3:

It wasn't on the NBC survey I took a few months back.
It was the first NewsVIPs survey with anything to do with TWC. They did want a new slogan...
"Weather...it's what we do." was on the list.
Others were the Keeping You Ahead Of The Storm, Bringing Weather to Life, No Place on Earth. There were others that I don't remember.

That's interesting, recycling older slogans like "Bringing Weather To Life" and "No Place On Earth"
I'd love it if we got another "Live By It" and NBC and TWC got their acts together and made it amazing...but I'm trying to be realistic :bleh:

I don't either. I started watching TWC during the "Live By It" slogan.
