The Weather Channel has announced it will experiment with airing movies on Friday nights, beginning October 30th with a run of The Perfect Storm. (Normally I would say this is a good idea, but I think I would actually rather watch a barometer than Mark Wahlberg.)
Also in the queue are March of the Penguins, Deep Blue Sea and Misery. Yes, Misery. Yes, that movie where Kathy Bates tortures James Caan for an hour and a half. Why is The Weather Channel playing it? Oh, you know, it’s got a snowstorm at the beginning, so I guess that qualifies it as “weather-themed.” For that matter, why not air Forgetting Sarah Marshall? That one takes place in Hawaii. It’s sunny in Hawaii. Sun’s weather too.
Fail.

Yes, you’re right T-bag. I fixed it. You know, they could really use your kind of ingenuity down at The Weather Channel…
