TWC considering going off air on Christmas

[lfmusiclover]

You know what would be better than long-form? They could just air the emergency feed with Christmas music and LDL all day, along with the LOT8's and a few commercial breaks in between.

I actually like that idea.

I think that's an excellent idea, it's better than long form programming running a whole day and the OCMs can have a break to spend time with family and friends.

Maybe they do not have very good ratings on Christmas Day, so they figure they shouldn't waste money being live?

I would think your correct. After all, how many people do you really think watch TWC on Christmas day?

My guess is it would be eaiser to sell blocks of programming rather than just plain weather. The shopping channels have went off the air for years. I think QVC used to show a fireplace with a burning log with Christmas music.. Now its mostly local choirs and employee bios.

I won't have any problems with TWC going off on Christmas. I would like to see a national scroll of warnings/advisories continuous and airport delay maps once in awhile.. There will be a lot of people traveling and many staying in Motel rooms..

All I can say WOW.  I mean think of all the viewers they're gonna lose!    TWC on XMAS is a great way for me to get away from my annoying family. I can barely understand there reason, but then again it counter acts them saving money by losing viewers.

It looks like this won't be happening after all. Zap2it has the schedule out for Christmas and it's just a normal weekday schedule.

It's still subject to change, though.

The guys at NOAA don't take the holidays off.

Exactly. You can't assume that the schedule is correct this far out. Nor can you really assume that the program guide will even show TWC being off the air.

Maybe we'll see a Christmas LOT8's Flavor: 24/7! But it will be interesting to see what they do.

I'm always at home in the states for Christmas, I guess I wont be watching TWC christmas morning!

Could this turn out to be the 24 Hours of Trammell Feed with Xmas instead music if it happens?

That would be neat if they did that.

What's even better than that is if TWC had a live Weatherscan feed of Atlanta playing nothing more but Trammell Starks.
