TWC makes TWC Primetime seem like something you should be excited about. :rolleyes: Quite frankly, I don't think I'll be.

Imagine yourself as an average joe who watches TWC for the heck of it and not as a fan.. quite honestly your perspective would be different

And honestly, I guess it's just because I can't put myself in that position, I don't understand why the average joe would want to watch pointless crap that most of the time has NOTHING to do with even weather. :no:

The new LOT8s squeezeback would be a sight to behold IMO. Can't wait to see it.

Well, it was tested today. Looks awesome.

I have a feeling that Weather Caught on Camera will be Peter Lik's new show. :thinking:

i won't be surprised if TWC goes back on this "new" schedule and goes back to the current one in Summer.

Meh, I don't watch much in the primetime anyway. It will be interesting to see how long this lasts.

According to TWC, there will be an "ENHANCED" Local on the Eights. What in the name of Sam Hill does that mean? I mean WTF

Perhaps...
  • Local LDL is coming back
  • Newer and longer forecast flavors
  • (BAD IDEA) Phasing out 4000, Jr, and XL (replacement w/Intellistar 1 or 2)
  • Better LOT8's Graphics(?)
Just brainstorming

Maybe it's more localized for us satellite viewers?

I think it refers to the LOT8s squeezeback.

Then I'm out of ideas. It'd be grand if they would bring the Local LDL back. Damn NBC tightwads

If you had an Intellistar, then you'd have a local LDL.
