I've still never had Killer Shrimp. I've fallen way behind on my new restaurant experimentation.
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nevermind. Unrelated to the matter at hand.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I find that it's best to confirm information before running all over the fucking net causing a huge chicken little epidemic. Sheesh.
If that's aimed at me, and I presume it is, I will point out I waited after seeing the news syndication for confirmation on FOX's own press release. I also emailed FOX via FOX.com, and I've got an email from them saying it starts March 1.
Now, I could have emailed Tim and bothered him over it. I did presume, however, the network knew when their own show started.
Edit: I went back and removed a naughty word as I wrote this pre-tea and was a little annoyed - I'm quite adept at making myself look like a moron, I don't need a television network helping me.

The status is NOT quo.
Drew loves Killer Shrimp. I like it in theory, but my fragile tummy does not. It's really quite tragic considering how YUM the sauce is.

What is even happening?
Eh, hits like TV's hit -- Drive -- exist in a maelstrom of speculation.
It's what TV hits do best.

No need to bother Tim! When I hear of an official start date, if it hasn't been in the press or here, I'll post it to TM.net. What can I say? I'm a giver. It's what I do.
Heck, when I found out about the airdate for Nick's upcoming Sci-Fi movie, regarding beings spawned by the sun, I posted it here right after posting it to the NB.com board! And why? Because I care.

Hey - ditto. As yesterday proved.
From what I can gather, regarding the start day gaff yesterday -- the studio put out the date wrong to the press, not the network. It's still mentioned wrong on a bunch of entertainment websites as a result, though. It appears there are a bunch of people confused about Drive at the Fox group of companies.

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
But now you know that it's more important to be accurate than to be first. Sometimes you miss a scoop, but after awhile, readers start to understand that you're posting the most accurate info, which makes you a solid news source, and not, say, Wrongda.
As for bothering, I have no response to that. It's ridonkulous.

Oh, I agree - hence checking with both the network and the studio before Whedonesquing it.

I think I better let this go before my friggin head explodes.
