Ouch.
I dreamed about the
Drive
pilot. It starred Nathan Fillion, Sean Maher, and Summer Glau. Summer's character was snarky and pregnant, except her belly was sort of translucent such that you could see the critter inside. And the critter could talk in baby talk already. At one point, Nathan spoke Chinese, and Sean replied to him in Chinese, and they both chuckled and said, "Eighth grade, Chinese?" as if it were the most natural thing in the world, and I thought, "Hee, nice inside joke, Tim."
The adventures of Mal and Simon and River went on for like half an hour and there were still no cars or sign of a Race, so I was a little disappointed and confused by what I thought was going to be pretty exciting. I think I just want
Firefly
back.
Hey, the good news is, a lot of people do go see movies like The Fast and the Furious.
Brian Bloom was a soap actor too.
That he is. I don't remember whether the blurb mentioned him.

As the World Turns, baby! I (heart)ed him.
Fox is still coming up with new promos for TV's hit Drive. There were five by my count aired yesterday on the network, between the race and the last two hours of prime time. Here's one of the new ones:
"Listen closely... I'm about to make you an offer..."
Just been looking at the Drive photos on IMDB. Lots of pretty, but there's two or three which are clearly visual spoilers for the plot.
On Livejournal today there is "Katrina, as used by FOX" (http://community.livejournal.com/neworleans/2652012.html). Hasn't had any reaction. Minor character motivation spoilers.
In MediaWeek, FOX's VP of Programming talks about Drive's scheduling: "Our hope is that it’s the kind of show, like 24 and Prison Break, that if you get people deep into it fast, you’ll hook them quicker than doing it one hour at a time".

Ironic in light of the fact that they only sent the first hour of the (three-hour) pilot out to the press. Gotta love that amazing inter-departmental communication going on at Fox!
They're going to hook the critics one hour at a time. The general public gets special treatment!
