I have new respect for those soccer mom vans. Still can't see around them at intersections, but who knew one can outrun the law and flip U-turns without a rollover. Impressive.
I don't watch enough Fox to know, but with phrases like "This is car-chase TV on Fox News Channel" and "same Bat-time" is it possible Shep was sending up the coverage even as he carried it out?
This is not the first time Shep has said "spike strip." Though in the past the S in spike has been capitalized and there's a comma between the two words.
what really fucking sucks is that this shit always happens when Jeopardy! airs, namely near the Final Jeopardy! Question.. do you know how infuriating it is to invest a full half-hour in a gripping game where all contestants have five-figures and it's down to the wire, and the local news jackass says "We have some breaking news for you --" ..
If it's not a storm watch in far-away Palo Pinto fucking County (where it's likely nobody watches fucking JEOPARDY! but reruns of Roseanne), it's a goddamn car chase. I'll take Waste My Fucking Time for $1600, Alex.
The fact that Shep cited the HOV fine made me smile.
I wouldn't want to see 10 minutes of this, but at 3:58 it's pretty good TV. (And I automatically change the channel when I come to a car chase -- a real problem when it's on all the fraking news stations at once.)
@finwar: what's this? he didn't signal! +$55.. ch-ching! .. and again! ch-ching! Rack it up, guy, the city of Dallas will have a new fountain before you're done! Yow!
@lobstr: I certainly hope he had his license and registration with him, or that's another $50 he can kiss goodbye. They might give him a fix-it ticket for the busted taillight, though.
@jackvinyl: Wouldn't that be great? Imaging Shepard Smith reading:
