Why on earth would TWC renew these kind of shows that no one watches and no one likes?

[TWCJim]

Seems to me that TWC likes to fight fire with fire with these so-called "weather" shows, adding more junk and renewing the ratings-questionable junk that's on now. When will the network learn that this strategy never works? 

[ruhgster]

I'm not saying I like these shows either, but does anyone have any actual evidence that no one likes these shows and have questionable ratings, other than the opinions of the people on this forum?

TWC should return to live weather programming 2pm-5pm instead of reruns of long form programming.
Leave the long form for evenings and overnight. vidmate.app saveinsta

Are you living in a world where it's pre-January 2014? Because since the DirecTV dispute in January 2014, TWC has had live weather every weekday from 2pm-5pm et, barring major holidays.

I thought it was Verizon that caused them to return to live programming? It was DirectTV in 2014 & Verizon in... what 2010? Someone give me a history lesson.
