(via Deadline)

Looks like Buffalo Wild Wings and Comedy Central have taken different approaches to handling this week’s Steve Rannazzisi debacle.

Despite getting a lot of heat for his admission that his 9/11 escape story was a lie, Steve Rannazzisi’s apologies seem to have been enough to keep his new hour special, Breaking Dad, from being pre-empted, moved, etc. at Comedy Central.

Its premiere is set for 11PM tonight on Comedy Central and we’re sure that some folks will be probably trying to fact check every single bit. 

Seeing how all this spun out of control years after the lie was told, it would be thoroughly intriguing now to see Steve be interviewed Brian Williams on his new show if they went in-depth into their fabrications.

Steve Rannazzisi’s first hour special Manchild premiered on Comedy Central last year and Steve is now following that up with a brand new hour special for this year, Breaking Dad.

You can see a preview/why there’s a been a transition in titles from Manchild to Breaking Dad here.

Catch the premiere this Sat. Sept. 19th at 11PM on Comedy Central.
