Post by: phw115wvwx on October 15, 2009, 11:36:18 AM: Good grief, TWC is becoming the Discovery Channel! :wacko: The producers of "Tornado Road" are the same ones who produced "Deadliest Catch", "Ice Road Truckers", and "America's Toughest Jobs". Here's an article I just found about this new series:

Yes, I agree as well. I want to see something new during those 2-3 hours of long form! I've had enough of Storm Stories, Full Force Nature, When Weather Changes History, etc.
That, and WeatherProof are two shows I do look forward to.

Call me crazy, but I'm thinking tornadoes/tornado chasing. :dunno: :P

It looks interesting to me. Will I watch it? Most likely not.

I agree. I never like long form but if they must have it, shows like these (that have some relation to weather) are great.
