hmm, maybe. I was driving so I might not have been paying close attention.
The Minearverse 5: Closer to the Earth, Further from the Ax
[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.
Once they figure out how to use DVRs to their advantage, they'll sing a new tune.
Definitely. It's the same with the music industry - a few years ago they went on a hellfire crusade against music downloads, and totally dismissed the market. That's now changed -- a decade later.
That Comcast thing I mentioned, with no fast forwarding of adverts, is also a trial of targetted advertising. Depending on your location, you'll get taylored adverts. It's a pact between ABC and ESPN as a trial.
I do not see the market, at the moment, emerging as pay-per-view TV, particularly for new productions. If Drive cost $3m per episode (including the pilot costs), and got 50,000 pay-per-view people, that'd be $60 an episode. I love Tim's work, but not that much.
Any chance of letting us know, after July 4, what the closure would have been?
I'd buy the comic books!

Me too!
Drive is a cross country secret illegal cross country secret illegal cross country secret illegal cross country secret illegal road race cross country secret illegal something, just in case you missed the trailers.
Ahahahaha.
That whole entry is hilarious, like sick people on occasion.
I'll be in Vegas on July 4.
You should come to LA on the 5th, Strega. We can have a Drive party.
Holy crap.
A couple months ago, I was on the Veronica Mars set when they were filming episode 18, which airs tomorrow. We chatted a bit with the guest star, who the writer told us was really great; he thought he was going to be Big, he was so good. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see him as much since we only saw the coverage of Veronica. But he did have a lot of natural gravitas; we listened to him deliver a key monologue.
I just peeked at the description for the episode and discovered that the guest star is Nelsan Ellis. Carter! From The Inside!
I'm kicking myself.
Hah, Polter!
I mean, really, for his sake, I'm sure he would have liked to meet one of the five people who watched the show, since it appears to have been his first regular gig.
