I'm just watching the first few episodes of Drive now, and GOD I LOVE NATHAN FILLION!!!! I also love how both actors in his truck are Canadian! =P
I'm not surprised that Drive isn't doing better; it will require people to remain with the shows with on going plot arcs sometimes make it big (see Lost), that usually requires very clever promotion, starting in the Fall, and some sort of initial mainstream fan base. Sure Drive has the Tim Minear and Nathan people, but Lost had the LOTR people, the Party of Five sect, and the JJ followers to start it off, and ABC promoted BIG TIME!
.... I'm not sure that Drive could go one more than a season really, so perhaps it is a good thing?
*is annoyed that they forgot the shockwave whent he shuttle lifted off*
Why do I want to see a crossover vid between Drive and Supernatural? Should we make Lithium_doll make it? Want to help me find the music?
Its soundtrack is all voer the place, so it might be a while before anything can be found. I also don't know how I am going to handle this week to week thing... I need more NOW!
Well...you only have a max of two (maybe one) more week before we go on "hiatus". Fox has already issued that order because of "cramped and busy filming schedules" even though tim and everyone have mentioned many times how they can shoot more pages per day than any other show on the air thanks to the green screen.
That's why I really want to hear an interview that's been done post-premiere to determine a) that they're still filming and b) if tim has some indication of the level of support he has with or without the ratings. God knows that the network actually went out of its way to keep Standoff on the air as well as a couple of comedies since EVERYTHING new tanked on fox this year.
Hmm, "Don't take your love away from me" by vast might work....at least on the nathan/wife and then sam/jess and john/mary. (okay, and dean-john. no slash no slash!)
Of course she is, why do you think our show is dying!!!?? She torrented the premiere before it aired in the US (I think it aired in canada early or somesuch).
