Have people never filmed scenes in cars before now?
Not since Police Squad.

[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.

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.

That was on a car.
Yes, it is, Cindy. Or, for me, the hour before Heroes.

What am I, chopped liver?!
Jericho showed people in cars using what I swear was rear projection. That was funny.
I had no idea Great Expectations had two endings. I'd wonder which one I read but I can't remember how it ends anyway. Oh wait, did we read this in school? I probably never got to the end.
Laga, the original ending was a lot more realistic. The one that got published was a everything-is-resolved-despite-obvious-reasons-why-it-shouldn't-have-been. Think the series finale of Roswell.
I don't think the revised ending resolves things, but that's your typical Dickensian essay question. "Compare and contrast the original and revised endings of Great Expectations, blah blah blah."
I remember enough to get the "Pip" jokes on South Park. Luckily I managed to avoid watching Roswell.
eta: anyway I prefer the Futurama explanation of Roswell.
