It's a Tim show. Of course people die! And now he has Kristen for extra special death.
Death by Bedazzler.
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What is even happening?

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...

The status is NOT quo.
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.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
OMG! They're anagrams!
This post made me laugh.
Jackal - your Myspace photo is that of a 900lb serial killer. Brilliant!
My Drive sale pitch: why would an unknown amount of people enter a road race where nobody knows how long it'll last for, how far they'll travel or where they will go? What - uhm - drives people to do that?
And by how far they will travel, I also mean how far they are prepared to go, not just physically move in a car. Characters actions tend to define if people love, hate or are indifferent to them in shows, and Drive's format would -- I'd imagine -- force a lot of characters to make a lot of choices an episode. So hopefully after the first 2 hours, people can say 'XXX to win', which implies some sort of investment in the show. And I don't mean Vin Diesel.

Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.
Saw what happened to you at Whedonisque, Alyson....Yikes...
Oh well..what is a fandom without it's scary stalkers...
