Where have you seen OCM's / TWC Talent in General?
On Air, Off Air, Behind the Scenes? Hosting a show they shouldn't be? Out in Hawaii? Post it here!

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for or not but Heather Tesch was the weekday early morning met. at WCCO in Minneapolis in the late 90s and early 00s. And she was TERRIBLE. She looked a lot different (somehow ten years ago she looked twenty years older than she does now) but that was the least of her problems. She had the most awkward presentation ever and was always stumbling over words and didn't speak very clearly...her tone was especially weak. You can see some of this in youtube clips from the early 2000s. I can't emphasize how awkward she was, both in delivering the forecast and interaction with the anchors.
When she left I almost assumed she was fired, because she simply wasn't good at all. The other 3 morning mets on other stations were superior. Imagine my surprise to see her turn up at TWC, hosting YWT. I can't believe the transformation not just her looks but most importantly her presentation...a complete 180 turn. It's unreal and I've always wondered how she was able to so dramatically improve.

Most OCM's at TWC look younger now than they did before coming to TWC. Unfortunately, that was Terry Connelly's (the former OCM boss) goal, to make the OCM's look younger and sexier. Which, by the way, I absolutley can't stand. <_<

I've never seen you use the word "sexy" gary :P
-
Not sure where you've been then. I know I've used it several times. :whistling:
Anyway, that has nothing to do with this topic. ;)

nope i've never seen you use it before :no:
anyways...

I actually have to disagree with you to a certain extent. I like Heather's makeover (she looks good!) and more importantly her presentation has evolved so much. It's not like she's wearing overtly sexy outfits. Like it or not, looks are part of TV. As long as they know what they're talking about, have a personality, and aren't taking the look too far (like wearing excessive jewelery...haha), I have no problem with it.
Sorry though, I'm taking this totally off-topic!

I saw a couple of videos of her on YWT on youtube while she was doing the Weekly Planner During Christmas 99' and 00' and she did sound very dull like, but her appearance didn't seem too different to me except her hair. I figured she just didn't want work on Christmas.
