Last week, Minnesota had the pleasure of experiencing some severe weather. Rain, thunder, lightning, wind the whole bit. I am not a fan of severe weather, never have been, and after my adventure driving back from Super Target in a deluge, I am pretty certain that I never will be.
After narrowly escaping with my life from a torrential downpour, I had some dinner, and thought that maybe I would get a chance to see one of the reality shows that I enjoy. However much to my disappointment it wasnt on, instead I got to see a live radar image of the current weather situation. Was it of the events of the cities?...oh no I was seeing images of the area around Rochester. Soon realizing that CBS wasnt going to give up too easily, I changed channels, surely our good buddy Sven and Kare11 had some common sense, and realizing the danger to the metro had passed would have returned to regular programming. Once again I was mistaken. Sure enough, as I turn to Kare I hear Sven talking about... oh I dont know weather stuff I guess. Now as much fun as it was seeing a very serious Sven (he had his sleeves rolled up) stumble through the events and watching Belinda get madder and madder at him, and eventually taking everything except the use of the computer mouse over, I didnt feel it necessary to have a play by play of what was going on all those miles away, I dont think I needed tips on what to do in case I live in a trailer park, and it definitely wasnt necessary to have interviews of people who are "in the middle of the action"
Oh well, I guess what I am saying here is, I dont mind getting my tv interupted for breaking news stories, but please if its weather related (Im looking at you Sven) have it effect me, and dont treat me like a moron and tell me that I should get to the lowest level of my house.

This happened to us last year with Big Brother when there was severe lightning strikes in the area. Out here in NC any major weather is such a big deal that they track the storm from RDU all the way accross the state showing us their great weather technology and repeating over and over the same crap. At one point last year they were ad-libbing and I felt just talking to hear their own voice. I was pissed and I guess so were alot of other Big Brother fans to the point that they showed it the night after and apologized for their interruption.
ReplyDeleteI drove home in severe weather once.
