We could call it Neener.

And then I could stand outside it and cry and cry and cry.

I believe we did something like that once upon a time with a show called Wonderfalls.

sort of. people who had seen the unaired eps/didn't care about spoilers had a place to talk about them.

i'm just glad the premiere isn't this sunday because i think i would be way too exhausted to truly enjoy it.

Is it wrong of me that, apart from everything I love about the concept, I'm hoping TV's hit DRIVE becomes, well, TV's hit DRIVE so that we might see THE INSIDE get DVD release eventually.

Much like I keep hoping Carla Guigino hits it HUGE someday so we can get KAREN SISCO DVDs (plus, she deserves it).

We could call it Neener.

Now we have to do it just for the name.

New York Times, excellent article on Drive: [link]

For all of the high-technology effects going into “Drive,” there can be some rather low-tech moments, as when seven men spent much of two hours pushing two cars around the set, trying to perfect the effect of one car pulling up next to another so the passengers could look at each other across the road.

In one scene, four men pushed a Ford Taurus roughly 50 feet, up next to a Land Rover, which was then pushed back the same distance by a group of three men. They did this for 19 takes before Mr. Yaitanes got the look he wanted.

The things people do for my entertainment. I loves them.

There's also an interview with Riley Smith in his local paper - [link]

They have a review of the Drive pilot, which they don't seem to understand the first hour of the two hour first night. It contains plot spoilers which are best avoided. Review here: [link]

They had mixed reactions, but overall I liked this:

"Drive" is like a Keanu Reeves action film, complete with snarky one-liners and a sense of purpose.

The cast is pretty deep, too. Faces you'll recognize (including Charles Martin Smith, one of the kids from "American Graffiti") pop up behind the wheels or in front of them.

There's a sense of danger, as well, that makes you wonder just how long anyone is going to be around.

There's also an interview with Riley Smith in his local paper

Riley's from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Sioux City is 4 hours away, on the other side of the state.

Localish paper, then.

Not really.

Riley's hometown newspaper would be the Cedar Rapids Gazette, and in between that and the Sioux City Journal there's also the big daddy of 'em all, The Des Moines Register.

Frankly, I'm surprised the Journal ran the profile of Riley in an age in which more newspapers are focusing on local and zoned news. Sioux City and Cedar Rapids are a world apart -- they might as well be in different time zones. I'm taking it as a good sign of the interest in TV's hit Drive.

Aye, the more coverage the better.
