Premise
Dog Bites Man was a parody of local news coverage, and followed the misadventures of a struggling news team from Spokane, Washington as they traveled around the country producing news segments. A mockumentary, the show incorporated scenes with the cast in traditional skits as well as them improvising with non-actors, who believed that they are an actual (albeit unusual) news crew.

Famous quotes containing the word premise:
“We have to give ourselves—men in particular—permission to really be with and get to know our children. The premise is that taking care of kids can be a pain in the ass, and it is frustrating and agonizing, but also gratifying and enjoyable. When a little kid says, “I love you, Daddy,” or cries and you comfort her or him, life becomes a richer experience.”
—Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
