Was that some weird 20th anniversary tribute to the release of Pulp Fiction and The Crip? That was the only thing I could think of to explain it.

Errr... The would be The Gimp

I've watched more than my share of some seriously twisted stuff in my life and I really hate puritanical US censorship rules but damn, there is a time and a place for everything and whatever the **** that thing was a Sunday morning on national tv leading into a car race was the absolute wrong time and place.

I'll also admit that I can't think of any time or place where I'd actually want to see that again.

That and Josef Newgarten's inner demon is female who somehow morphs into a professional wrestler? I mean seriously what the actual **** were they thinking?

That was just good old midwestern Family Values, Apple Pie & Chevrolet brought to you by the vodka & cocaine addled brains of the Hulman/George family. :tony: They are Mindy.

Few things shock me but I was aghast at the BDSM fetishist gimp preview. Then, Tony Kanaan Was supposably showing compassion while taking selfies of hisownself with the girl who was in a medically induced coma and that just turned me off. And, the woman host with the yellow lobster looking thing around her neck...too much for me to bear and off went the tv.

Watching it live, I thought, "Huh, an X-Men tie-in?", only to realize it's ABC, not Fox. Coming out of the bathtub was nightmarish.

Nevermind the gimp, the IRL continues it's tradition of promoting crash porn.

I am 99% sure that pic was taken after she came out of the coma....

This reminded me of something out of a NIN video.

It didn't look like it. The Kanaan / little girl in a coma IS a compelling story, just not the way ABC presented it. Some stuff should just remain private instead of being exploited in a pathetic attempt to find substance to cover the fact there's no compelling stories happening on-track, via practice, qualifications or the season to date.
