Lightning Rod--CANCELLED
« on: May 27, 2010, 12:25:16 PM »
I'll go ahead and start a new thread on what may be a very interesting show!

LIGHTNING ROD, hosted by former TWC radio meteorologist Mark Elliot is basically a show that all about the weather and how it affects your area. It's a fast-paced show. You can interact and discuss with Mark using Facebook, Twitter, skype, etc.

Via Mark's Twitter (@MarkElliotTWC), the show will debut this June, but did not say the exact date yet. But it will air Monday-Thursday 10-11 pm ET.

The show now has a twitter, (@TWCLightningRod) and he may be working on a facebook. I'll ask him when I get a chance.

btw.. <333 the logo of it!!!

Sounds interesting. I also wonder if they're going to keep long-form at 11 PM ET and eliminate the two-OCM Weather Center, leaving only a solo OCM show at Midnight ET.

Great! More long form.. exactly what we need with The Weather Channel.

Before I was only slightly irritated, now about 90% of the time, The Weather Channel isn't The Weather Channel, its never about the weather anymore...

Honestly, I am fed up with it..  :censored:

There's some pictures on there. I wonder where that set is. Possibly the former Weekend View studio?

That definitely looks like the former WV/A&B studio...

I figured that would happen considering I have yet to see a commercial for the show.
