Subject: Which NYC TV Weatherman ?

From the NY Post Page 6.....WHICH broadcast TV weatherman could be facing the ax because he "just isn't working out?" Snitches say producers of the show are secretly courting a rival weatherguy, who might end up with a fat contract AND a game show if he stays where he is because his boss doesn't want to lose him.

[> I was scratching my head over this one for folks who live in or watch NYC news.....the first weatherMAN has me stumped, but I have to think that the one who might end up with a fat contract AND a game show....could that be none other than Sam Champion??? With Meredith Vieira's departure, and her rumored exit from MILLIONAIRE, do you think Sam Champion could be next in line to host the syndicated MILLIONAIRE show? And if the 2nd part is about wooing Sam away from where he is, what other weatherman and at what channel is this person on the hot seat? The clue does say weatherMAN? -- Jack, 16:44:28 04/18/06 Tue

[> I don't think it's Sammy -- Sir Harry Hard On, 20:04:23 04/21/06 Fri

I saw this mentioned on another site, and it says the weatherman in danger of losing his job is Dave Price on the CBS morning show. Also went on to say that they might try to replace him with Al Roker. (I wouldn't worry about Meredith....NBC is going to let her finish out her contract hosting Millionaire)

[> The Weather Man facing the ax is probably John Bolaris. (Ch 2). He was brought in to boost the ratings, but Sam is still the most watched Weather Man in NYC. He is also very well liked by the powers that be at ABC. I belive he will replace Ms Viera on Millionaire if the game show can't accomodate her new schedule. I also believe Sam is being groomed to replace Regis, when he retires. -- Lawrence NYC, 01:05:28 04/23/06 Sun

I miss that face, he was very very friendly all the time. Loved to watch him,waited for him to come on. He is a very sharp dresser and always gave accurate reports.
Heard he could go back to channel 5. I hope so. Really miss seeing him.

[> Has it occured to anyone that Sam Champion is NOT a meteorologist? This guy is a failed actor with a portrait hanging in his attic that looks 90 years old. How the hell does he make 1.7 million a year? Who the fuck is so desperate to get their weather information read by Ken that it would cause the station to pay him that fee? Are people REALLY tuning in just to see him? -- Sam-Spam, 23:01:03 04/23/06 Sun

[> [> so what that sam isn't a meteorologist, he's a weatherman, a man who reads us the weather. besides, i'd take that man's warm front any day if he offered it to me. -- Lee Goldberg, 16:24:21 04/24/06 Mon

[> [> So, what if it is Mike Barrs from Good Morning America that they are trying to replace with Roker? The word "Broadcast" might hint at a national news show versus a local one. I personally think Mike Barrs is one of the hunkiest, most charming men on TV or ANYWHERE!!! -- Sam-Spam, 20:29:01 04/24/06 Mon

[> [> [> He's always in a black or blue suit, and he never shows off his physique. Even when he was on the GMA Cruise, he stayed all dressed up. What good is it to have a hunk who's always decked out in suits??? He needs to wear more tight white t-shirts with a more casual suit jacket if you asked me. -- Dave Price, 17:39:21 04/25/06 Tue

[> Which TV Weatherman -- Debest, 10:23:29 05/15/06 Mon

So, someone asked, but no one seems to know -- now that there's an official replacement, where DID Joe Moreno go?

[> BUMP!!!! Looks like it WAS Mike Barrs getting the ax and Sam Champion is going ot be the new GMA weather guy! So now it's going to be "Wake Up America, Sam Champion is GAY!!!!" How long do you think he can reach a national audience on a daily basis before the fact that he is a Class A Fudgepacker "comes out?" -- Sam-Spam, 20:05:03 08/22/06 Tue

I have heard that Al Roker is on the way out, and that Al has hired the services of a lawyer to sue NBC for being racial with their reasons for dumping him. -- Angel, 14:23:48 08/23/06 Wed

[> [> [> Where the heavens are you??? Joe Moreno?Come back! -- Cortez, 23:22:31 11/07/08 Fri

It's all been like an upsidedown tornado since he left the air. Strange people from somewhere else are on now all the time, it looks bad all over.It's just downright bad, c'mom now! It stands out now that a lot of people just don't know how to do weather at all.

We really need this guy back - a wonderful smile, from brooklyn. He was the good guy - all the time. A rare quality these days.

Mixed background, too? Did a lot for the commnity, all over the place.Saw him and his (wife? don't know) at a street fair, and that was it. He always made a great fit and people comfortable during the interviews. People still ask about him. Others doing the interviews now are real blah! Isn't NBC trying to get him on again? They said they were going to.

I read it in the paper a long time ago...

Best suits and smile every time. Guapo Grande!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Probably a lot of jealousy in his path for a lot of reasons, he probably never saw it or cared either - he is that kind of guy.

It has to be Al Roker, the network that he works for is getting tired of his constant bitching, claiming that he's not getting anywhere, and using the race card as a lever. -- H/P, 10:47:06 09/17/06 Sun

It would be great if Joe Morneo were to make it back on the air in New York. He's incredibly handsome and appears to be a really nice guy too. Much better than some of the other "forecasters" who currently grace the airwaves.

He May be on again, he stuck it out went through a bad time, now even I'll wait up to see him, and I am 76! I knew he had a 'presidential' smile. Now we know why! Very Nice. Informative. Not a bulker type, but a face of confidence and so damn cute!

Seems like the kute kris is a bit jealous of the whispers down the halls. The guy on ch.2 was from Long Iong or staton island, but didn't wrk out.
