The male OCMs are still jacketless ever since Isaac passed through the US... I honestly feel they should be wearing their blazers/jackets as it makes them seem a little more professional. I mean, I don't really need to see what type of undershirt they have on underneath their dress shirts, if they even have anything on underneath... Just my opinion...

My present lineup can be found at http://jtmal.net/lineup.pdf

I do not get the sports packages or the foreign packages, or the 3D packages.

At 3am they used the storm coverage graphic has a lower third.

Half-assed, and made at the last minute. I dislike the lower third.

Here's a wider view of the studio


On an unrelated note, TWC did a new segment on the 17th that had 50's TV style to it,
Nick's Weather Nuggets

I have a feeling that's as close to "storm alert" you're going to get... It's not exactly a category 3 storm, so I don't think we're going to get the music... We already have the special opener though.

Even though my guide says coverage is from 7-8:30pm, 10-11:30pm, 1-2am, it seems live coverage is going to continue. Jim Cantore, during his live spot, let it slip that NBC is involved with where people are going and how this coverage is going forth so only time will tell how well this coverage goes.

If anyone is on Comcast, the shift of moving the High Definition channels from the 200s to the 800s begins today. If you have a DVR, your recordings will automatically move to the 800s equivalent. More information can be found at http://www.xfinityhd800s.com/. On the old channels, this is shown on all of them.... I received this message on my TiVo about an hour ago....

If any channels have moved, the scheduled recordings on those channels have already been moved to the new channel for you. If any channels hwere removed, the scheduled recordings on those channels have been deleted.

If any channels have been added, the DVR assumes that you receive them unless they are premium channels. To modify which of these added channels you receive, select "Specify channels I receive".

All I know, is Comcast is making an effort to standardize their channel lineups higher than 99... I think this is a smart move.

The new DMC has a couch and chairs,

I think this is the first time TWC has utilized a couch in a set on air since Weekend View went HD in 2008... I'm impressed. Also, man, they really changed EVERYTHING in that studio.... There's not a trace of the former WV/A&B set left...
