It's a Tim show. Of course people die! And now he has Kristen for extra special death.
(But yeah...good hook.)
Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Or, possibly a paraphrase of one...
Maybe they'll show another promo so I can confirm.
It was very quick cuts, characters talking over action shots of, well, cars. Action-y.

What is even happening?

Death by Bedazzler.

You're very close, Jen. (Assuming it's the promo I think it is.)

Geez, I need to pitch more death at work. Apparently, I've got a rep to protect.
ETA: But I can still kill a thread like nobody's business.

Loyalty to Tim(and Kristen) will make me watch a show, but it has to win my love on its own merits. For Firefly that happened in the premiere's last scene, for Wonderfalls it was a done deal halfway into the revised pilot's teaser, and for The Inside it took several episodes before everything gelled for me. That track record and the awesome cast suggest I'll get there with Drive as well, but it's not a foregone conclusion.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
With adjustments for exact moments of falling in love, I am Matt.

I described it (badly, but got the gist across) to my mom and she got all excited. She has no loyalty to Kristen or Tim. According to her , it's her kind of show (she likes cars, arcs and characters.) Unfortunately, I don't think they get FOX in too clear with the rabbit ears...

Kristen, it's death cred by association.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Allyson, I think you really need to come out and tell us what awful things you say in your book about Spike.
