In celebration of two of our last entries commenting on the fact that the Weather Network now names winter storms names like Nemo and Gandalf… Here are 3 more networks we’d like name winter storms!
1. NBC. Now that cable company, Comcast, bought the remaining share of NBC/Universal that it did not own from General Electric, congratulations, Comcast! You sealed that deal just in time for a series finale of 30 Rock, and upcoming series finale of the Office, leaving you with our favorite comedy, Parks and Recreation, and as far as we can tell 3,000 episodes of the Voice. However, in honor of Parks and Rec, we look forward to Winter Storm “Sleet Yo Self 2013!”
2.CNN. Now that former NBC Chief Jeffrey Zucker runs CNN, we eagerly anticipate the same kind of programming on CNN that saw NBC at the bottom of the ratings of the big four networks! Sorry, Anderson Cooper, you’re going to have to compete with Dee Snider to sell Selena Gomez gossip to New Yorkers if you don’t want to get fired from Winter Storm “Celebrity News Apprentice!”
3. The History Channel. Okay, how did shows called “Big Rig Bounty Hunters” and “Pawn Stars” end up on a History Channel? Let’s face it, it’s time for this channel’s name to be history, so it should not even be allowed to name storms when it can’t keep its own house in order! Until then, we expect all storms to be named after historical storms, so look forward to the replay of storm Nemo, in case you missed it the first time around!
