Have people never filmed scenes in cars before now?
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

Sure, usually when they're being towed on a trailer. Easy to do at slower speeds, but I imagine since this is a race it would be very hard to tow at the speeds required to have the scenery zipping by in real time.

What is even happening?
I never got into Prison Break. Is that typically the hour before 24? I mean, I think it must be, but my head can scarce handle it.

Yes, it is, Cindy. Or, for me, the hour before Heroes.

I may never forgive him for changing the end of Great Expectations, but then again, that experience seems awfully similar to the way writers now often have to bend to pressure from their higher-ups.
At least most editions of GE include both endings. TV writers usually don't have the luxury of getting their original unfettered-by-higher-ups-interference script filmed. Although when they do (and here's another parallel) it ends up as an extra on the DVD.

Jericho showed people in cars using what I swear was rear projection. That was funny.
