Do we want the seriously negative reviews along with the good ones, because this one from the Chicago Sun Times sounds almost vindictive: [link]

Dude, you think that's bad, check out the New York Times review, which spends the entire time talking about the fact that people drive cars and cars are evil and Tim Minear is a jingoistic bastard who wants people to only buy American. Or something.

I just watched the first hour, so now I know what the hell Strega was talking about. Hee. It was very different from the pilot script I read, so some of the changes bugged me, but I'll trust that the changes were for the better and continue on.

It's funny about the greenscreen thing: if you just watch a clip or skip to a scene, it sort of looks fake. But when you're watching the actual show, you rarely notice because you're so into it and excited and the camera's moving around so much.

crosses fingers for stellar ratings tomorrow night

Waiting until tomorrow and skipping the reviews. Resubbing to this thread though! Whee!

Ouch, Polter-Cow. I'd love to know if Drive is sponsored by car makers. I actually suspect it's not, so the point is null and void. I've seen one review that claims Drive encourages global warming, so Tim's clearly out to kill his viewers, not his characters, this time.

This may have been asked and answered already. Will I be able to go the Fox's website and watch entire episodes of Drive online after they air on TV the same way I can watch Heroes at NBC's site or Grey's at ABC's?

People keep asking this question in other forums and I can't figure out Fox's website enough to find an answer.

Tamara, yes. I checked with FOX's staff on Friday -- it should be up on FOX's VOD site on Monday. Standard disclaimer applies: it's possible they told me fibs.

ETA: it will only play on Windows XP (or Vista), apparently. And only in the US.

Thanks Kevin. I will try to go find that site.

I found it.

Tamara, it should be here: [link]

My link seems to work better for me. Maybe it is a US/UK thing.

Drive's on the front page of Yahoo today. There's also ads on FSN, and a long promo no the TV guide channel. I know the download thing is a touchy subject, but it's got 10 times the amount of downloads The Inside ever got -- and this isn't even on the air yet. Would be really surprised now if this isn't, in fact, TV's hit Drive.

I'd love to know if Drive is sponsored by car makers. I actually suspect it's not, so the point is null and void.

Honestly I wouldn't care if it was. It'd just be very effective product placement.
