Everything Else TWC / Re: General TWC Discussion

Looks like we have new graphics for the Health lifestyles segment. The lower thirds are now smaller and look similar to the 2003-2005 lower thirds. The graphics that show the safety tips use an orange and blue gradient. The opener was also modified and uses Evening Edition's graphics. I wonder if there are other versions too for the other shows (that have the lifestyles segment).

They should add older stars like the Junior or 4000, much cheaper.

Being the only PC-based system, the IntelliStar is definitely cheaper than the 4000, and possibly cheaper than the Junior too.

They never seem to have a specific date when to end them. Last year, Garden was disabled in October, but Golf/ Boat & Beach weren't disabled until November, then Ski was immediately added thereafter. In 2006, all three summer segments were gone by the end of September and Ski was added in early December.

Wunderground's forecast data comes from the NWS. They don't forecast their own in my pants.

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

« on: October 18, 2008, 12:10:06 PM »

TruTV is still good. I like their pursuit/crime type shows, but I wish I had it on basic cable here. I can only get it on the living room TV and it's often in use by someone else. I do however have it on basic at my other house. COPS also often runs on my FOX affiliate.

There are still a handful of channels out there like Discovery and History that are good, though they got rid of several shows that I enjoyed watching in the late 90's/early 2000's.
