OCMs & Personalities / Re: An event six years in the making...

I don't get it. 

Cheryl Lemke hosted the first hour of First Outlook this morning. Spring Rubber was referring to the fact that FO was her normal show 6 years ago.

They started off Day Planner with the Your Weather Today backdrop. Now they've switched to the Day Planner backdrop, but the lights behind the backdrop are off, so the backdrop is very dark. It looks kinda cool, though.

EDIT: They've now fixed the backdrop lighting.

I saw Warren Madden ALONE today on WWC

Wait, huh? When I saw him, he was working with Kristin.

But now we have Carl Parker hosting the extra hour solo.

Now we have Carl Parker working the extra 4 PM CT hour of Weather Center solo. I wonder why Warren and Kristin couldn't work this hour? They only worked two hours (2 and 3 PM CT), and normally on days that WWC is extended to 4 PM CT they would be able to host that extra hour.

As for the lower thirds, I'm pretty sure full control fixed that this week, as I posted earlier in this thread.

Nope, I'm watching Weekend View this morning and the lower thirds are still lower than they are on master control.

It was full controlled.

It was? Sure seemed like master to me. They used transitions that are only used on master controlled shows, and the lower thirds were taller than they are on full controlled shows. Also, the one-line lower thirds for the :00 and :30 past headlines did not do a "erase and retype" effect - instead, a lower third was regenerated for each headline.

To me, it definitely seemed like it was master controlled, but then again, full control could be pulling our legs again like on March 28, 2006.

Weekend Weather Center is still using the Weekend Now backdrop. It also appears to be master controlled, which is odd. (it's normally full controlled on weekends)

Banned for not specifying how the sig hurts your eyes and which sig it was.

Banned because the signature he was referring too was rather obvious.

That must've been an awkward moment "Thanks for joining us, I'm Adam Berg....errr, Vivian Brown". 

It was Betty that did that, not Vivian.

Dave said Betty Davis will anchor starting at 4PM. Storm Stories wasn't preempted, so why are they showing the PME hosts starting at 4?

Because it's a solo schedule. It won't always be a PME OCM, though.

Did they ever mention whay show Kim was headed to? (Probably a female team, as said earlier, of her and Viv.)

I didn't quite catch that, but I believe I heard her say she was swapping with Jeff, meaning Kim would be hosting Weather Center with Vivian.

Well, that was an interesting end to First Outlook this morning. They mentioned it was indeed Kim's last day on FO and that Jeff will be moving in on Monday morning. But not only that, they showed some old footage of Nick and Kim on FO from 2001 - 2003 (), and they ended the show with the Nick, Kim, and Jen, with Jeff standing up next to Kim.

I kinda figured they would mention something about this, but seeing the 01-03 First Outlook clips was a nice surprise.
