Probably; I noticed they finally brought it back today.

Everything Else TWC / Re: Blooper Thread
« on: March 29, 2008, 10:08:18 PM »
I was watching the IndyCar race (don't kill me! 
) when I tuned to TWC and saw this. The HD feed didn't even get the teasers; it stayed on the Studio 1B shot while EE was starting (you could see EE on the in-house TVs), and it didn't switch over to EE until Adam went to the key wall.
What happened is that master accidentally sourced its own production system instead of the "full" control room. (note the plain blue LIVE tag in the upper left-hand corner). They probably switched the SD feed over to full control first, then switched the HD feed over later.

How ironic.
I hope TWC feels good about their credibility.

Probably, but that's just silly. All of the lights they have on in the studio are far less than essential. Nice example being set by the supposedly environmentally-conscious TWC.

They shouldn't be able to pick and choose; if they're going to do it, do it during the actual Earth Hour!
I can understand leaving the key lights on, but other lights should be turned off in the background.

They freakin' turned more lights on!
Have they lied to us?

We don't know anything. Hopefully it's as profound as they make it sound.

This is already suspicious; they've turned off the secondary lighting for the first hour of PM Edition Weekend; normally if those lights are turned on for Weekend Weather Center, as they were today, they aren't turned off for PMEW. (never used that initialism before...)

Everything Else TWC / A new look for weather.com video forecasts for big cities
« on: March 29, 2008, 05:16:53 PM »
This week, they launched a new look for weather.com video forecasts for big cities. I wonder if it's a sign of changes on the cable network...
Then again, the weather.com video graphics never did match the cable network's appearance, anyway.

Everything Else TWC / Re: A new series?
« on: March 29, 2008, 04:14:11 PM »A while back, Carl had mentioned "a new show is in the works." Maybe this is it...
That's a good point. I wonder if he meant this or if he meant WWCH...

Everything Else TWC / A new series?
« on: March 29, 2008, 03:48:22 PM »
A few minutes ago, Carl Parker introduced us to what he termed "a new series" called Off the Beaten Path, and then a Lifestyles segment for said series played.
AFAIK, we haven't heard anything about this yet, so I'm wondering if this series will actually be a show or if it's just going to be a Lifestyles series.

WWC is still in Studio 1B this afternoon.
I guess the "wait and see" game continues.

Well, it's Weekend Outlook time, and Raymond is still in Studio 1B...
I guess whenever it happens will be a complete surprise.
