Programming and Graphics / Re: New Graphics coming to TWC

It looks like TWC's cutting back even more on weekends. Starting November 16th, they'll be no live programming at all after 2PM.

Not even a 9PM show? Or, is it too far out? Either way, don't over due longform TWC! I don't want you in another Dish dispute and almost lose you again! Unless, Weather All The Time fills our longform needs. We won't know that until it starts.

On the other hand, watched the end of 9PM WCL last night and Chris was doing the regluar longform intro, then he said weather updates will be at least every 30 min. So maybe the updates will be more frequent when needed?

My channel guide has updated and is showing more changes for the 12th. Here's the new schedule:

4:00am-5:30am - Weather Center (replaces First Forecast and On The Radar)
5:30am-7:00am - Wake up with Al
7:00am-11:00am - Morning Rush (4th hour added from 10-11:00am, Wake up With Al repeat no longer airs)
11:00am-8:00pm - Weather Center (Day Planner and Afternoon long-form no longer air)
8:00pm-2:00am - Long-form programming

I hope that schedule's true! Sounds like a good trade off. I wont miss WUWA at 9/10AM! The only thing I'll miss is sometimes I would stop by WCL at 9/10PM but not every night. More so now because of the upcoming changes. If the schedule is true I don't think this is a big increase in longform. TWC may get more viewers at 2PM than at WCL at 12/1AM.

I went through Zap2it.com and the guide took me through Tuesday the 12 only up until 8pm. After 8pm no programming shows. But for the rest of the day it has Morning Rush starting at 7am, WUWA at 10am,  Day Planner at 11am, long-form starting at 2pm, then WCL at 5pm - 8pm. No new shows names yet. Maybe zap2it will update the show names as the day gets closer. Because I do know some show names are supposed to change.

Can you tell us which shows and the names?

Is Al leaving TWC? Wishful thinking I know, but really, how long is his contract?

I wonder how many commericals TWC needs to show? Would be intresting if TWC could do a live update every brake. Would make longform easier to watch.

My theory is maybe TWC will be working on the studio until the last minute.  So, some OCMs could be training with the new set/graphics during the extended longform. The OCMs most likely know what's happening and I would be totally shocked if any layoffs comes from Weather All The Time. Meaning The All the regular OCM's will still get airtime. TWC took their time building the HD Studio This feels very quick to me so maybe the need all the time they can get.

Looking ahead at the schedule change. According to zap2it.com; On November 11th. Weather Center LIVE is from 5p-8p, and long-form is scheduled to run 8pm EDT to 4am EDT with First Forecast.

Where are you seeing this? Looking at it right now and it only goes to 3AM on the 11th.

I haven't seen anything posted about this, unless I missed it.  If so, I apologize.

Both Kim Cunningham and Maria LaRosa posted pictures on Facebook saying it's their last time one the "old set."  A new one will debut in about two weeks to go along with the new changes.

Looked up Kim and Maria, and you’re right. I’m starting to think this will be a Major Relaunch! Bigger than 2005! A New Set??? I’m surprised! Wonder what they will do to the set? Also wondering, what will debut first the graphics, or the set? Did anyone watch Prospector’s Season Debut last night? I saw the end of it so I could watch WCL. After the credits, I saw something that looked like an ID. It looked the ID’s I’ve seen on TWC’s latest YouTube Videos. I didn’t hear as I was on my laptop with headphones and was not expecting it, and it happened fast. Did anyone else see it? Was it an ID or a Prospectors copyright? 

Not much happening today, DP was in the studio I can’t remember the name of. Did it used to be Lighing Rod’s? It wasn’t the GFC. Wonder where WCL will be later today?

No 'Weekend View' LDL title for the 7:00 segment. Weird. Think they are testing something new?

The Title came on eventually. There was no WV Title at the end of the 6:00AM EST hour. Right now, no WV Title,  and the LDL is in late and out early.  I wonder if the testing is starting?

Was anyone else watching the 6AM CDT WV this morning.? I did and I saw something interesting.  I saw a new Tornado Central graphic. It looks just like the Breaking Now that is on the Weather All The Time vid. I think it was an error because after that graphic, TWC went to the Winter Weather Update.

If I'm the last one to notice this, sorry but,  I saw on Morning Rush this morning the words GFC are gone from the GFC. How come? Because of the new changes?

Does anyone think that TWC will be testing these graphics during. Day Planner? Like they did with the 33% LDL. If they will be, could TWC be starting soon?

Was watching TWC this morn, and at 5:45AM CDT, Julie mentioned the new look. It was just people's opinions about it. They could have showed us something! Unless I missed something on TWC Yesterday or the day before. Be on the lookout while watching TWC!

TWC announced that the new "Weather All The Time "graphics are starting in November.
Apparently the LDL is going to be like ESPN's bottom line where the sports news and scores are always at the bottom of the screen.

That's Great! 


On TWC's beta.weather.com there's a countdown that says 10 day's til thanksgiving? If that's when the graphics launch that would be November 18th. Ironically that's a Monday and  TWC usally launches new graphics on Monday's. 

EDIT: By the way, where did you see this. I can't find a link to an article about this anywhere 

Where did you see the countdown?
