I agree, or at least use newer jazz songs on the primetime slot

Ever since the whole format changed in June 2009, the primetime has been completely allergic to jazz.

Its more like an ongoing cold () because until 2010 the daytime daypart was allergic to jazz but at least it wasnt as heavy as the primetime slot

OCMs & Personalities / Re: Betty Davis - Departure

« on: August 01, 2010, 10:33:54 PM »

I dont see it, but what actually was her reason for leaving? I really like Betty, wish i could have seen her last show! TWC is really Getting on my nerves with all of the OCM's that are leaving (forcefully, or on there own choice)

Her contract expired. And I'm pretty sure someone uploaded it on YT now.

Could someone post the link? I would love to see that

But if BP owns Amoco already, then why do they have to "purchase" it?

A lot of people noticed in the late 90s/early 2000s that all most Amocos became BP. However when one is passing on the road they dont have time to see the print on the BP signs that say "with Amoco fuels". I noticed it rather quickly because I didnt drive when the changes occurred and i read almost every business sign/billboard that I was able to notice back before I started grade school

If my theory is correct based on Tavores' post, people may think that Amoco is returning if and when they see the names on some signs or if they were to use the old logo again people will consider Amoco a different company if BP doesnt put their name on the signs. Down here a chain that moved into several old Amocos that BP didnt acquire called GasKwik never advertised their fuel source (which I doubt was their own). They were changed to Marathon stations in 2007/2008 but atop the store part the name 'GasKwik' was still used

I'll readily admit to occasionally listening to my weather radio for "leisure."  However, a feed of electronic voices chattering away in the bathroom... I'd start using the hedge out back.

We could get a Sirius XM feed of the nonstop 90s channel, but then some of you would start moaning about government spending....

Do you get FM radio where you live?  Last I checked, that's free... and not as monotonous as weather radio.

FM is free because of ads



But yeah I do know of people who do take boom boxes into their bathrooms while they bathe and I think its freaky

Will there be ads on the HD LDLs? Also, on the "Next 8 hours" part of this big LDL, the icons look too high.

Yes, the small LDL has ads, and the large one will soon have them too as Tyler stated.

There are currently no videos of the small LDL up yet and based on the concepts posted part of the LDL doesnt disappear like how the IS LDL does

Wow this is sad, I wouldn't have expected this. Was there any mention of the reason for her leave?

It wasn't a voluntary one from the rumors I have heard.

While Im not upset about it because I wasnt a true fan of Betty its a shame that she was put off.

Apparently not soon. If there was there would surely be promos of it already.

Not necessarily. The Tornado Road thing on TWC that replaced Movie Night iirc was advertised a week in advance and WUWA ads began rolling a month before its premiere

I hear Declan Cannon works for the NWS in Duluth now.

Now that we mention old OCMs I was shocked to find out that the Dave Nemeth who used to work for TWC in the 1980s is the same Dave Nemeth who hosts a show produced here in Tampa called Daytime

Ill try and see if i can cap the show and put up a clip here although I think it now broadcasts on the Retro Television Network for those who have it in their markets OTA

No narrations?

On the beta version they dont add all the features.

I wouldnt quite say it like that because you never know. But I think the narrations are programmed into the units but have yet to be activated
