Ken Barlow Out Again on Ch.4 ?

Noticed that Ken Barlow was out again today, Monday, and Mish Michaels filled in without mention of Ken's absence.

Hope he is okay and it was just a regular day off but the station should say.
 
just two days of vacation...he'll be back weds. i agree, we need to do a better job of stating that he's taking a couple of days off.
 
Barlow-Watch '07

Geez, why so much attention on where Ken is?
Maybe we need a message board just for him? We can call it the "Where's Barlow" Board!
;)
 
Re: Barlow-Watch '07

Ken Barlow was pretty sick a few weeks ago. Was in the ICU with a severe allergic reaction to something. That's why we were interested.

Read an article today that was linked from another message board (although I cant recall which one...BTVN, maybe?) that Ken just helped move his wife and kids back to Minneapolis as they didnt take to Boston very well. And,apparently, Ken isnt wearing his wedding ring anymore. And, perhaps, he and Mrs Barlow have separated and are divorcing.

Rumor spreading, and BTVN has been... less than reliable.
I think we should at least wait until it's in a semi-legitimate source (like the Boston Herald) before we start digs on people's personal dirty laundry. It's also just tad off topic, imho.

Now, if we heard he was somehow seen wandering the halls of KSTP, well...
That' might be a differen't story...
 
Let's stop spreading rumors. Watched Ken Barlow tonight at 6 PM and he had his wedding ring on. Perhaps, his kids went back to finish the school year.
He's a good meteorologist. Hope he doesn't leave.

Allergic reactions to medications can be devastating, even in a very healthy person. They take a long time to clear out of the system, much like pneumonia or mono. To speculate on Ken's absence or presence and the state of his marriage is just wrong on so many levels.

If you have never moved your children to another town or state, you have no idea of the stress that it puts on the family and the child. To move during high school can feel like you are ruining your life. Give the Barlows the privacy they deserve. We have more to worry about in Boston than whether Ken is wearing his ring or not.
 
I think Ken Barlow is taking Monday's off since he wasn't there yesterday. Of course, Ken could be Jewish and celebrating the Passover Seder which was celebrated yesterday.
I think he is one of the best new additions to Channel 4 and I hope he stays and does well.
 
It does not rise to a level of "concern" only a notation since both Channel 5 Meteorologist were off yesterday to celebrate Passover. I see that as a positive happening with NO negative implications. BTW Ken Barlow was off again tonight - Tuesday.

His religious preference is NOBODY'S concern!

Are you assuming that Havery and Dick were off for Passover, or did they specifically say that?
And again, why does it matter?
 
This poster has it on inside information ;)

A lot of families have seders the first two nights of Passover. It is not unusual for a family to invite guests, whether they are Jewish or not. It doesn't matter what religion any of the meteorologists are. The fact is that Ken Barlow has not been on the air this week and some viewers are concerned. It makes it really hard to check for Ken's wedding ring if he doesn't show up. Now, stop it, you two. Go to your rooms and don't come out until you can act like civilized brothers.
