WSMV in Nashville - You need help

Before I get started, you might like to refresh your memory about the last time WSMV ticked me off and as a result I watch that station as little as possible. I also attempt to avoid any advertisers who advertise with them.

Tonight was the first night for NBC's The Office since the whole writer's strike debacle. I was enjoying the new episode when all of the sudden with three mintues remaining....maybe even only 10 seconds, they cut to their little weather boy to tell us about storms in west TN. I don't know how the show ended. Maybe I did see the end but the point is I don't know, because some program director forgot to remind the weather boy to tell us what exactly we are missing or what we aren't missing.

Then the little weather boy keeps saying, "let's just take one more look at yada yada, and we'll return to our regular programing." Well one more look must have meant 6 more looks because we didn't get back to our regular programming until well after Scrubs had started.

Had they waited 3 minutes or maybe even 5 seconds, all of this anger would be unnecessary.

As for those who live in Paris, TN and Henry County, I sincerely hope all of you are okay. I don't mean to take away from the station wanting to keep you safe, but they have other methods of informing you about a situation for a few minutes and since there was no actual tornado spotted, it was not that pressing.

WSMV...unbelievable.
