Local Forecast / Re: IntelliStar Update - Sound Effects Disabled

Why? I thought they were unnecessary, but I kind of liked them. Except for Windy. That sound effect is obnoxious, haha.

Apparently the average viewer didn't.

That's odd, hopefully it isn't permanent. I liked the sound effects.

Yesterday was the third consecutive day where we saw an increase in stocks, and my news stations are saying that the economy may now be improving greatly in the near future. Just because the stocks are going up for several days doesn't necessarily mean this recession is over...

As much as I hope it stays, I wouldn't be surprised if it were to be discontinued. It's ratings were likely lower than Weather Plus since it was never advertised on TWC (other than for a short time in 2005 in select areas). It would be nice if TWC would advertise it nationally so there would be more demand for it by viewers who don't receive it, and also so Comcast can bring it back to my area on digital basic cable so I can record higher quality clips for my YT viewers. Why they never did advertise it nationally I have NO idea...

Anyone know when we'll see some new songs added to Weatherscan? Normally we'd see playlist changes every 1-1.5 years, so we should of seen a playlist change by now.

Mike just beat the record in the wind tunnel! He made it to 122mph before he gave the thumbs down sign.

He's apparently going back for more, so I hope someone's able to catch it as I'm not going to be able to watch it live.

I should be able to.

I had no idea who Jonathan was until this thread. 13? wow, really young people here.

Happy birthday.

I remember you were among the youngest by far on these forums back when I first joined the TWC fans community...

TWC and your Cable Company / Re: Cable Providers

« on: March 12, 2009, 04:56:46 PM »

I have had Comcast since 2000.

Same here. Prior to 2000 I had Suburban Cable, and prior to 1996 Oxford Valley Cablevision. I still remember seeing the Suburban logo on TWC's station ID. Those were the days...

Local Forecast / Re: Intellistar- Do you like the current version?

« on: March 12, 2009, 04:54:36 PM »

Current version is good, but my "golden age" era of the IntelliStar would be 2005-2006.
