WTF Network

From Shadow Unit Wiki

This page refers to the television network. For other uses of WTF, see WTF (disambiguation).

The WTF Network broadcasts the Shadow Unit TV show.

The WTF is a "teeny tiny" network, which caused the Powers That Be to worry that Shadow Unit "would disappear without anyone noticing. Anyone." [1]

The official meaning of the TLA "WTF" in the network's name has yet to be disclosed.

Other Shows

We do not know what other shows it broadcasts; in particular, we do not know if it also broadcasts Delta or Pennsylvania Avenue. However, Elizabeth Bear did state that Molecular Gastronomy And Kung Fu was part of the WTF's Monday afternoon lineup. [2]

Tag Line

The network's tag line (as shown on the front page of the Shadow Unit website) varies:

• From July 13, 2008 to January 1, 2009, the tag line was "Crazy like a platypus". [3]
• From January 2, 2009 to February 28, 2009, the tag line was "We're about mayhem. And food." [4].
• As of March 1, 2009 (the start of Season 2), the tag line is "Home of Schrödinger's Platypus." [5]

Emma Bull, in announcing the DVD extra "Tactics" on her LiveJournal, used the tag line "The Platypus Has Landed." [6] When announcing the DVD extra "Sufficient", she used the tag line "If we were predictable, you'd be able to duck". [7] However, neither of these tag lines have yet to be used on the main website.
