Title: Special program airing tonight on TWC - Winter Remix
Post by: Spring Rubber on January 26, 2009, 10:34:50 AM
According to my guide, as a part of Why I Love Winter Week, TWC will be airing a special program tonight titled, "Winter Remix," and apparently it's a compilation of the best of TWC's winter coverage; it's not quite clear if it's talking about just this year or if the show's going to take a look past into the past, but it should be interesting to check out.

It's going to air in place of WWCH at 9 PM ET, and it'll be a half-hour show followed by Epic Conditions at 9:30. Epic Conditions will air two half-hour shows on both Tuesday and Thursday night, and Friday night will again feature the Winter Remix/Epic Conditions combo. WWCH will reair only on Wednesday and Saturday night this week.

Also a little bit different is that, according to my guide, the previous night's long-form will re-air during the 2 PM ET block each afternoon; no word on whether Weather Center will air at 3 PM ET or if that block will still be FFN.

Beats the heck out of the billionth airing of FFN where that kid gets hit by lightning, that's for sure.

And it's not as much as "OMG IT'S BACK" as "wtf...it was the first HD content on the channel, and it gets bumped for non-HD content when the channel relaunched IN FREAKING HD."  I figured we'd see WeatherVentures and Epic Conditions get repeat treatment since they are in HD.

FFN will most likely still air at 3PM, since that was the case when they showed Cantore Stories at 2-2:30.

We really need to get a recording of Shorts Boy as notorious as he is. Was he on today?

Is this show live or pre-recorded?

I'm assuming prerecorded since it's coming back on again at 12

Your assumption was right, Jim is live in Paducah, KY tonight on EE.

I caught the very tail end of this last night, and it had some of TWC's famous on-air snow encounters...

-Steph Abrams making a snow angel
-Cantore cold, so he does push-ups
-Kristin Dodd breaks a car's windshield wiper
-Sidel falls
-Jorma joining the Polar Bear Club

...but shockingly missing is the famous Thundersnow clip.

They showed the Cantore thundersnow clip earlier in the show.
