It was taken off the Istar SD a while back but remained on the I2jr and I2HD the whole time. The video referenced from Charleston is an I2JR
That animation was removed from the IS1 but it never was on the IS2 or IS2Jr, instead they had text only without the graphic. It seems that TWC added this to the IS2 and IS2jr very recently.
It seems TWC brought back some of the nostalgic music on their latest playlist.https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-ts=1422579428&x-yt-cl=85114404&v=yTmPc9YSF1gYet during Winter Storm "Juno™" coverage, I haven't heard any of those tunes, just the same old regular production tunes.
I believe that's not real, just someone putting their own music over the video.
I have the IS2jr now.
Is there even any significant difference between an IS and a IS2jr? Appearance-wise they all seem the same to me.Although, it makes sense to replace the IS with the IS2jr since it's like an offspring of the IS2.
Echoing Tavores, it does make perfect sense that TWC is slowly replacing all IntelliSTAR units with IS2 Jr units, considering that the IS is about 12 years old and is constantly glitching. Also, that could explain why all if not many Comcast and Bright House headends who have adopted the IS2 replaced their SD TWC feeds with HD feed simulcasts.

That also makes me wonder if TWC is planning on making a new Weatherscan model of the IS2 or IS2 Jr.? The current Weatherscan IntelliStar model came out back in 2003 and it's a year older than the main TWC model and hasn't received any graphics updates or new features since 2010 or so. That also makes me wonder if TWC will ever make Weatherscan HD?
