I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Whoot! Will tape.

Betsy, it's from Strictly Ballroom. The Pan Pacific Grand Prix is the great big ballroom dancing competition. The male lead has been made to prepare for it his whole life by his dance obsessed mom, and at one point he exclaims, "I don't care about the pan pacific grand prix!"

And then she smacks him in the face.

OK, now that was a promo.

Yep. Liked the dialog we got to hear. Still mostly teaser, but at least you got a good look at the cast.

What is the Pan Pacific Grand Prix? I need to know so that I can not care about it with appropriate fervor.

I think its from Strictly Ballroom ?

But Strictly Ballroom (unlike the Pacific Grand Prix) is worth caring about. Or watching, at least.

Oh, and I'm still waiting for confirmation because i trust IMDb not at all, but it seems Rob Kral (Angel) is scoring the show.

I just saw it a few weeks ago for the first time. Lurved it.

I haven't seen it in years, but maybe I should add it to the queue. Or just buy it.

If I only had a brain...

Thanks, Allyson. I really need to watch that again.
