Michael Kuss must be destroyed.

For the last few months, CityTV has been showing promotional commercials of their weatherman Michael Kuss. He claims that having the most cameras on ground level will help him track storms. "If you can't see it, you can't track it" Michael claims over and over again. I have a better idea. Stop running these stupid commercials and start investing in satellite weather tracking, because some of us want to know about the weather before it's right on our doorstep.

On that note, you may want to fire Michael Kuss and his slick tie-fixing-in-the-wind ways and re-hire Harold Hosein! Before those annoying Kuss commercials began, CityTV had a fun and respectable weatherman who loyally served for 17 years, until they fired Harold while he was on vacation. More details about that here and here. So perhaps these Kuss commercials are a sad attempt to build viewer support for Kuss. I'm sorry to say that it's having the opposite effect. Bring back Harold Hosein!!!

screw that! Kuss is the best weatherman out there. Not one person can replace him. He's the one who studied meterology for quite a while, he's the one who shows us the weathermakes, he's the one who lived around Canada tracking weather, and he's the one who City should keep! The other stations should be FIGHTING for kuss.

Michael Kuss is the coolest weatherman I've ever seen. I find the quirky commercials to be entertaining. Besides that I think the younger generation can relate to him. He's hip and handsome and I've had a crush on him since day one. Harold is so ho-hum, Kuss is Kool!

Kuss blows!!! I have never seen someone so annoying on tv as this guy is, his moaning and groaning voice and his total lack of humor make me want to vomit. When you see him around kids it's like he is about to throttle them. He goes on and on endlessly to the point where you just stop listening, and he goes on and on about everything and anything that has nothing to do with weather, hes so busy loving his image on the camera monitors. Bring back Harold!!! and yes even better bring on Nalini FULL TIME ALL THE TIME.screw kuss!!!!

Disturbingly, this site is now #8 on Google, if you search for "Michael Kuss".

I can't walk on by this blog topic.
I sent an email to City to request his removal.
I've been watching for almost 20 years and he is hands-down the most annoying weather-person I've seen to date. There's just something about his delivery that gets under my skin.
And can I also mention - since when did weather deserve 15-20 minutes during the 6 o'clock news?
Move on - tell me if it's cold, snowing, raining, hot - etc... - I don't need 20 weather spots across the GTA.

Harold was probably fired cause he was too high on himself. He was rude to people in public and his on-camera persona certainly did not match his real-life bitterness. Kuss does a great job and have brought flare to City TV. He has injected humour and is a real fit for viewers across the country.

Kuss comes off as a pompous jerk. He should be terminated. Whats up with all the weather stations around the city, does anyone care if theres half a degree difference between the airport and downtown. The guy's a tool get rid of him ASAP.

I completely agree with the writers that said this guy is a tool, and especially with the one who asked why there's 20 minutes of weather on CITY. Jeebus, this guy just puts me into a coma every time he's on. Rather than finding out what the weather is like 2 blocks from me, why not tell me how I'm supposed to dress tomorrow? That's all we need to know anyway!

Sorry to burst y'alls bubble but these weather reporters or meteorologists only report what they receive. They cannot and do not predict the weather, it is NOT in their power so stop praising the reporters--it is not up to them. As for more Nalini, I miss the original Kermit the Frog! Jim Hemderson, RIP!
If you don't like what you hear or who is reporting it, change the channel!

Have a great day (rain or shine)!

Kuss isn't the problem, when he was on Global he was the most entertaining thing on there. Unfortunately he just blends into the background on City. he needs a place where he can shine, cause he is really great.

Why would anybody that wants to be taken seriously dress as a 15 year old? I guess the same people that think "If you cannot see it, you cannot track it." is a good slogan for weather prediction in the 21st Century.
