When did you watch (or like) TWC the most?

I guess the peak years for me watching was during the Trammell/Ficara era (1996-1999) What about everyone else?

I was an avid viewer from 1992-1999, but my favorite years by far were 96-99.

Id' say for me, it is 1995 or 1996 through about 1999 or 2000; the late 1990s.

I rarely watch anymore.  Lack of interest and no time are two components.

I watched a ton from 2000-2005

I started watching TWC in 1997. I liked the network from 1998 up until fall 2006. Then it started going downhill.

IMO it first went downhill in 2000 when the new music programmer started. Most of the playlists from 200o suck because they're composed mostly of classic jazz and big band type tunes, which I can't stand. And then, IMO, TWC sank a little lower a couple years later when they introduced Atmospheres and Storm Stories. Granted,I had a little patience for Atmospheres, but by the time SS came on I was sick of that type of programming on TWC. So yeah, in my opinion TWC has been slowly drifting downhill for awhile now.

For me it was 1999-2001. But it's decent in the present.

Yeah, I wasn't too happy about that either. I think the new logo is very plain and boring. Anyone can make a blue box and write the words The Weather Channel in it. At least the old log showed a LITTLE creativity.

I agree 100%. The old one looked much nicer. Wasn't as vibrant, and did show creativity. I was mad when they changed the IS and XL
