I just have a feeling that we may not be seeing that second hour of crap tomorrow. Lets hope enough people complained. Hey, it worked on May 7, 2007.

They have Wxscan. I don't think having a looping LF would be a possibility on TWC.

I know but if at least with the emergency feed with trammell starks on twc? because weatherscan is getting boring with the same MUSIC over and over change the playlist for once  :furious:

I think that would send TWC down the tubes quicker than a two hour block of long form programming.  :rolleyes:

Got a reply from Chris Hoitsma.

Hello Mr. Miller,

Thank you for contacting The Weather Channel Interactive.

I will forward your email message, expressing your disappointment with the
recent increase in long-form programming features on the network to our
producers and programming directors. Needless to say, it greatly concerns us
that this addition to our weekday afternoon programming line-up have
negatively impacted your TWC viewing experience.

We are always happy to hear from our viewers and hope you will continue to
watch The Weather Channel for many years to come.

Sincerely,

Chris Hoitsma
Solutions Center/TWC
choitsma@weather.com

Kind of seems like an automated/scripted reply to me.

Nah, that's probably an actual response.  He was probably told to keep in constructive like that.

I'm torn on that response. On the one hand it DOES seem a bit scripted, but on the other hand it seems a bit better than some of the other responses you guys have posted around here.  :P
