I wasn't a fan of the old font personally. But this one isn't large/bold enough.

OCMs & Personalities / Re: Jeff Morrow moving to a different shift
« on: September 11, 2009, 04:12:31 PM »more changes are on the way, idk if more OCMs will be shuffled around again, but rumor has it TWC is due for a graphics overhaul sometime in november.
Graphics overhaul will likely be delayed due to a few things (like the HD STAR launch delayed yet again).
But concerning the graphics... I've noticed a a trend in NBC graphics. Recently, MSNBC debuted a new look with their HD launch, and within just this past week, the TODAY show received (a much needed) change, and the graphics are stunningly similar. Makes me wonder if similar graphics will be coming to TWC (I sure wouldn't mind).
Does the rumor say that Intellistars and satellite lfs would be affected?No - not direct graphic changes to the Istar.

With the addition of WUWA, FO was hardly a show anymore (except for the small, small percent of east coast viewers who are up during the 4-6am time frame). To be honest, it wouldn't surprise me one bit it FO went down to a one-anchor show.

Everything Else TWC / Re: TWC is now regretting being owned by NBC???
« on: August 26, 2009, 11:29:54 AM »I think NBC was the worst choice IMO. I am hard pressed to find a worst companyNope. If Rupert Murdoch and News Corp. got a hold of TWC, I can see things being 100x worse.

Since I can't hook my TV tunder up to my FiOS box, I figured I'd get a few crappy quality videos (better than nothing, right?). To start, here is a LF and a Weatherscan clip. Enjoy!
Note: no idea what happened to the audio. Sorry!

Theme weeks like this are perfectly fine - they drive viewership. And it's not like TWC is the only network to do theme weeks. Ever heard of Shark Week on Discovery?
But, at least they didn't really go into the previously scheduled "Back to School Week."

Simply because the metro maps are no longer configured to use actual reporting sites - they can only show HiRAD observations.

« on: August 15, 2009, 04:48:44 PM »Is it not supported by the Intellistar to have an Int'l site on the metro map? I noticed when I was in Romulus that Essex, Canada appeared on the forecast metro maps, but not the CC metro maps. I also see that Felix's Intellistar is this same way with Mexico.That is correct.

Pittsburgh. 
But seriously, we get some pretty insane weather here sometimes, all year long too. And, all three major stations go all-out for severe weather coverage, especially WPXI.

For a short time, 22434's forecast title was OAKMONT-NEW KEN.-NATRONA HEIGHTS which barely fit, and was a horrible title in my opinion. It was soon renamed ALLEGHENY VALLEY AREA, which is much better.
