When did you first discover TWC?
« on: August 23, 2007, 12:33:16 AM »
When did you guys discover TWC?

I first saw it in 1997, then began watching it more and became a fan of the network by 1999. I was an even more frequent watcher and started watching it almost everyday by 2002. I remember watching Your Weather Today every morning before school when I was in fourth and fifth grade.

As for Weatherscan, I first saw that channel when it came to my area in early 2001 and I have been a pretty frequent watcher since it premiered. I have always liked the music on there and the graphics on Weatherscan, especially before February 2005.

I first saw TWC in 2001, but I didn't watch it regularly until late 2003 or early 2004.

I started watching TWC in 1995 and was an avid viewer from 1996-2000.  I still watch it sometimes, but only if there's nothing else on, or there is severe weather around.

Yah, same here. I haven't really been a frequent TWC watcher since 2004, but was still a "fan" of it until 2006, when many OCMs left, the addition of A&B, and the complete OCM schedule overhaul.

I started in 1998 when i was 4, believe it or not. But after 2 months or so, i kinda forgot about it and rediscovered it in March 2002. then
i became obsessed. I liked TWC until about 2004. then i only watched for local forecasts and music. Now i never watch it cause they turned
it into shit :)

Nice choice of words. ;) :rolleyes: TWC has gotten downhill ever since the "Bringing Weather to Life" era.

Gil, you know cussing isn't allowed. Your behavior this evening is very much upsetting me. Knock it off or you'll be out of here again.

It's kind of weird thinking young children would watch TWC.
