Allyson, You all can't develop a Pirate show. It will be in competition with Tim's as yet to be named Pirate Variety Hour.
wait, should I whitefont that so we don't get linked to by everyone?
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

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
I think it's okay to talk about Tim's Pirate Show, msbelle.
It's sort of like CSI, but on a pirate ship.
It sounds fucked up, but it works really well. Totally surreal.
And the costumes are totally going to rock. The costumes are sort of like the 15th cast member.
I know people will think it's like Firefly because of the ship and all. But there's all sorts of bizarre crimes and like, old school forensics.

You left out the crime-solving monkey. With its own finger monkey!

Wait, I heard it was set on a ship, but would be a skit show with weekly Musical Guests. Harkening back to the Donny & Marie show and Sonny & Cher.
and of course a monkey. Isn't that a deal-breaker now for any Tim project. Either he gets a monkey in teh show or he walks. That's what this guy I know at Variety said.

Dude! The monkey so rocks!
It's kind of like a shout out to Wonderfalls.

Like there's any way to keep Charo from the maiden voyage of the SS Quincy. And of course the first murder victim is... or perhaps I've said too much.

It's kind of like a shout out to Wonderfalls.
I love you. ::makes hand motion:: Take it, Charo.

Actually, it's going to be like the Lynn Redgrave Muppet Show appearence where Muppet theater suddenly turned into a pirate ship.

If I only had a brain...
Pirates. Pirates are good.

Pirate talk good. Bringing on a reminiscence. Must stop. Pirat...Private. Can't not tell pointless story. No. Can't...
Ok. I went to school in and grew up in North Carolina where there were many, many pirates and pirate ships and sunken pirate ships and pirate ghost stories (by the way, the best!). So the best part of this, my entire fourth grade was spent learning about North Carolina history and, I swear, if there had been periods of study in fourth grade, fifth period would have been Pirate Period.
It was as great as you can imagine. One time I wrote a pirate poem. It was very p-alliterative.
