The writing staff of TV's hit DRIVE is light on smokers. I think we're a dying (HA!) breed.
Especially the night of the show premier?
Some of us will be swapping out the coffee for alcohol in about three hours.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Good luck to all involved. I wish you all alcohol, fags, or whatever else tickles your fancy.
Drive Fans is being freakin' hammered from Google.

Are you and Tim having to smoke extra, to make up the difference?
Kristen, are you all butterflies, today? I was thinking about you earlier and thinking I'd be fighting off nerve-induced oogy feelings, all day long.

The more reviews I read, the more everybody seems unduly hung up on the premise. Was only sending out the first hour a mistake or something, because nothing about the premise pings me to the degree that the critics are making of it. Is it serial-drama burnout, given all the shows that tried for it this year and tanked? I'm seriously confuzzled.

Whatev, I got new Tim-may drama to watch in just under an hour!!! Whoot!!!

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
The 2nd hour answers many of the questions posed by the reviews I've seen. It's a shame, but if it wasn't ready, it wasn't ready.
I completely agree the reviewers are hung up on the premise, though, and still maintain it's one of the reasons why I'm excited about the show. It's not going to replace BTVS for me: but it is so wide and with so much going on, there's a lot to love. I think a critics job in many ways is to spot flaws, and seems so simple to suggest this won't run for 11 years as a single road race. Have a cookie, I say, and tell me if the episode is any good.

Damn, is Drive 2 hours tonight? So I have to record the Dresden files?

Yep, 2 hours, 1 hour tomorrow.

Art Crawl!!!
But the new episode of Dresden Files is at 10 Eastern. (There's a repeat at 9 Eastern.) So, no conflict in most places.
