TWC and your Cable Company / Re: Is cable TV going downhill?

« on: November 06, 2020, 05:38:39 PM »

In terms of scheduling, cable tv is definitely not the same as it used to be. Before the days of Netflix and such, they used to give shows equal screentime, regardless if it iwas a hit or not. But then sometimes around the 2010s, most tv networks started dedicating to playing lots of reruns of a particular show because it gets the most ratings, such as:
Ridiculousness (MTV)
Impractical Jokers (TruTV)
SpongeBob (Nickelodeon/Nicktoons)
Friends (Nick at Nite)
Teen Titans GO (Cartoon Network)
Puppy Dog Pals (Disney Junior)
Andy Griffith Show (TV Land)
Bar Rescue (Paramount Network)
South Park (Comedy Central)

Go check the TV Guide and you know what I'm talking about...

Honestly, I'm getting bored with the pandemic. I have hardly went out because I don't want to risk getting sick. But of course, people can't accept that, so their selfishness is to blame for all 2020's mess.

You heard it here, folks. As of this writing, Wilfred has just formed, which means for the first time since 2005, the Atlantic hurricane season has finally used up all of its name, forcing them to use Greek names afterwards.

Discuss about the first kids network, Nickelodeon.

While I did watched Cartoon Network during my childhood, I became interested in Nickelodeon's history, and became an active follower of the network.

I now run a gimmick account on Twitter showcasing its schedule, news, and historic events over the years. https://twitter.com/NickSchedules

Speaking of history, there's now a Wiki dedicated to its schedule. If you're curious which shows Nick aired on a particular, this is the place. (All sources comes from local newspapers). https://nickstory.fandom.com/wiki/Special:WikiActivity

The funny thing is, there is a TWC Wikia Fandom, but most of it is just random local news station, even though it should strictly be about the actual Weather Channel itself. Nevertheless, I used to edit there until it got messy.

Unless something significant happen, like new look (which happened today) or bad weather coverage, yeah, this forum is dead. 11 years ago, it was a lot more active when the channel has more hours of weather coverage.

Honestly, it's about time! TWC had the same graphics for almost 6 years, it was time for a new look

OCMs & Personalities / Maria LaRosa Departs from TWC

« on: September 23, 2018, 01:58:07 PM »

https://twitter.com/TheMariaLaRosa/status/1043842406590877697

According to a recent tweet, Maria LaRosa is leaving TWC after 8 years. Her last day of working at the Weather Channel was today.

I will miss her...honestly, she was my favorite OCM that joined the channel this decade.

EDIT: Just when I created this topic, she changed her @ to TheMariaLaRosa, removing TWC.

103F Sunny. The city's first 100F day of the year (Compared to last year, which occurred in February). Phoenix actually beat us at this as it reached 100F a couple days ago.
