Kristen, Tim, cast and crew--such a quick hook. The cancellation was sad news, but you put on a show you could be proud of.
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

We're all fate's bitch. You might as well go ahead and bend over for destiny now.
Drive was a seminal show cancelled by the idiot network. I was going to picket Fox but I didn't have any comfortable shoes.
You fought the Good Fight, Tim. Fight a bad fight for once: who knows, you might win.
I'd buy the entire series on iTunes if the remaining 'sodes were to find their way there. Just saying.
Much love.

I am at a loss for words.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
Maybe Tim should make a spin-off where Alex Tully solves a bizarre landscaping problem every week, and each time, he almost kills the grass with pesticide, but in the last ten minutes, he figures out what type of Miracle-Gro will work.
Alex Tully needs to be renamed to a Variety style pun, though. Something to do with Ryan Seacreast.

What is even happening?
Kevin, the icon made me smile a little. But it was one of those smiles that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth.
And also, also? I think the phrase drive-by (Drive bye?) is ruined for me now.
As Julie goes, so goes my nation.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
teevee.org has weighed in:
With three series in a row now cancelled in six episodes or less, I think that officially makes the Fox network Ike, and poor Tim Minear Tina.

What's Quality Got To Do With It

Swouncing
Tim, Kristen, and everybody else involved with the show - I'm sorry.
I still had the coolest first job ever. I was on a great, fun show with talented people. I have a writing credit now. Words I wrote were spoken by actual actors and put on film and beamed into people's homes. And, most importantly, I got to work with Tim, which was more wonderful and valuable than you could imagine.
I love the way you write. Well, as yourself. I'm reserving the judgment on how you write other people, made-up ones, to when I can actually watch them (and please notice the lack of "if" in there).

Because books.
Are reruns of House really going to pull in better ratings?
Yes. Last week's NEW episode of House pulled in 22 million viewers. A rerun would only have to pull in something like 15 percent of that to beat Drive.
Don't get me wrong, I love House. It's just that I don't usually watch reruns unless I didn't see the episode the first time. I guess other people do, though.
