Probably can't do the 31st. My DVR, if you didn't hear my whining on Twitter :P, is now all messed up. We have a replacement on the way, it's supposed to come later this week. However, knowing DISH, that probably won't turn out so well. I would like to do it on Halloween, but it may or may not be possible.

I voted but personally I don't care when we do it, I'll just set my DVR to record both the SD and HD feeds (I LOVE dual tuners) and import them later.

According to this:

http://www.usatoday.com/weather/news/2009-10-20-weather-channel-movies_N.htm?csp=34

TWC will be running movies on Friday night for four straight weeks starting October 30th. I think we'll have to settle for Saturday to be safe.

Darby said most viewers on Friday night aren't interested in much more than the weekend forecast, and that will be updated on the screen six times an hour.

So apparently the LFs will still show during the movie.

Sounds like the L-Bar, not actual LFs.

At any rate, according to the Zap2It guide, Weather Center will still run from 7-8pm with the movie starting at 8, so we still have the 7pm hour on Friday available.

I agree, most likely it's gonna be the L-Bar they show, also imo it would have been better to just cut the last hour of WC at 9pm EDT. and if the movie(s) are being shown for 2 hours then until 11pm to cut into the first hour of WCWC so both shows equal out in airtime.

Best Case scenario is to do either a :08 or a :38 so there is more music and more screens.

But we usually do it at :58 to get the STAR ID however :08 and :38 make sense.
