I certainly won't be getting it

[Mike M]

Me neither. I wish they'd release Atmospheres or Weather Classroom on video.

That would be really cool. I'd definitley buy those!

Me neither. I wish they'd release Atmospheres or Weather Classroom on video.

Never... they're too old, and weren't popular enough.

Too old? And since when has anything on TWC been judged on the basis of popularity?

They still show Weather Classroom

I never said I was expecting them to be released. I just wish they would release them since I dislike most of today's programming on TWC.

Victor, although they still show Weather Classroom, I don't think new episodes have been made in at least five years, and since it airs very early in the morning, it probably isn't very popular.

(starts thinking about that "21 Million people watched and made this the most watched premiere episode of WWCH" commercial)

Yeah nowadays TWC shows are judged on popularity. But back in the days of Atmospheres and WC, they were not.

Here's an update to this story:

Epic Conditions - Package Art, Content, Dates, etc. for The Weather Channel's DVD Tin & Blu-ray Releases

Canadian Release Plans Also Revealed

Early in February we first reported that Madacy Entertainment and The Weather Channel are preparing a home video release of Epic Conditions, on both DVD and Blu-ray Disc format. We had very little info for you at the time, but now we've got a major update for you. That update includes new info regarding the release schedule, box art, content (including bonus content), and release plans in Canada.

At the time Amazon originally listed this title, they showed both releases as coming out on May 13th. While the Blu-ray Disc version still shows May 13th at Amazon (they're charging $20.95 for it), the DVD version is now showing August 5th as the release date (at a $26.99 cost to preorder now). We're not sure why the DVD version is set to come out four months later, but perhaps it has to do with the tin packaging the DVD will get rather than the standard blue plastic snap case the Blu-ray Disc version comes in. Take a look:

Epic Conditions box art for DVD tin and Blu-ray Disc

The DVD version comes on 5 discs, while the Blu-ray Disc will be on 2 discs. Both versions will contain 15 episodes of The Weather Channel's Epic Conditions, running 575 minutes and presented in Widescreen. The show is described as "an action-filled series featuring talented athletes testing their skills in the ideal weather conditions for their sports." As a bonus, there will also be 10 episodes of The Weather Channel's Weather Ventures program. The DVD tin package will contain a deluxe booklet. The Blu-ray Disc episodes will be presented in high definition...which is usually a given, but we thought that should be emphasized considering the difference in the number of discs in each version.

In Canada, this title will be distributed on both DVD and on Blu-ray Disc by Vivendi Visual Entertianment - Canada. Both list for CA$28.95 SRP, and Amazon.ca is discounting both versions to CA$20.27 as of this writing. The listings at Amazon's Canadian branch show that both versions release there on the same date: June 3rd. That is really strange when compared to the different dates in the USA, but hey...we just report it.

I likely wouldnt get it as I am no fan of Sony running the show with Blueray.
