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
Penny Dreadful, when does it air? I saw the pilot, but then it looks like the next episode isn't until the 18th according to my teevee. Is it wrong?
