You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

"How is TV's hit Drive different from anything else on television?"

"If all the characters were replaced by manatees, how would that change the show?"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What's it like to be in an ensemble piece? Which characters would you like yours to interact with? How is shooting scenes in cars?

How is shooting scenes in cars?

This is key, as it appears to be the most interesting and notable thing about the show.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Blow by blow of the latest Drive ad from somebody at Drivefans:

Showed Riley in military uniform, a quick clip of Nathan. Showed varying cast members in what looked like a factory giving sound bites on why they're racing including three of the chicks who are apparently racing together and the pregnant lady. Showed shadowy pics of the 3 or 4 people in charge being menacing. Showed a scene from what looked like the Keys. Showed people getting calls. Had a voice over. Had a montage of scenes, including one full-on pic of Kevin Alejandro and a quick scene of Nathan hitting some guy. More quick cuts.

Drivefans - site has 147 registered members, Myspace has 118. Site - approx 1500 or so individual visitors in last week, with 50% of them new visitors. Although I haven't really spent much time on it myself, as I have moved (I have a sofa, Jackal!) and lack a proper internerd connection as telecom companies are actually run by THE DEVIL. It's plainly obvious that FOX are getting the word out, though, reading the forums - there's random people swooning over actors that weren't in Firefly. And such like. Which never happened with Theinside.org.

It's not that I'm the only one, it's that I'm the honest one.

I have a sofa, Jackal!

Does that one double up as a bed as well?

Also, telecom companies favor those who fix image galleries. Or so I'm told.

Hey. New board.

YouTubing for TV's hit Drive is hard. (I actually typed in "TV's hit Drive" and only found videos of some poor family hitting a "dear" on accident.)

I managed to find an old promo by typing "Drive Minear"... are any newer ones available yet? I haven't DVRed AI. I could DVR tonight's I GUESS, but it will make me feel dirty.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Get dirty for Drive. It's the least you can do.

There was a promo on again during AI tonight. I think it was the same promo as last night's but I'm not sure.

Can someone with a better memory tell me if last night's promo started with, "Fox breaks the mold again...With a revolutionary new series..."?
