Also, the opening credits: really good.
Original music or a selected song (or ominous noise a la LOST)? If that can't/shouldn't be posted here, that's cool.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
My track of the Drive reviews is about 75% positive, which is a lot better than The Inside. I didn't see Firefly stuff back then, but I'd imagine it's doin' better than that, too. The common complaints are the longetivity of the series, and the premise. Only two of the reviews I've seen actually mention the writing, but both are complimentary, and there's almost no belittling of acting performance. Fillion, Dylan Baker, Charles Martin Smith and Emma Stone got praise in multiple reviews.

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

It's written especially for the show and is un-Lost-like. Probably can't say anything more, so I won't, but, yeah, 'twas good.

Hmm.
So I had a dream about TV's Hit DRIVE last night. I figure the actual thing has got to be a lot better (and more coherent). Details are just a hazy blur at this point (much like the scenery from a fast-moving car).
I suspect it was the RESTLESS version of DRIVE.
It gets better. I remember it gets better.

I'm so glad that I remembered to program my TiVo for TV's hit Drive last night.

Two reviews call Drive "brain candy". Which is my new favourite expression.
