Drive - New TV series on Fox

[Matt]

Anyone else looking forward to this? It has a good premise and Nathan Fillion is always an intense leading man. Should fit into Fox's line up nicely. It would be nice to get it in there with House.

Here is a link for those of you who have yet to see the commercials

Fillion and Minear together again. I'm there.

Why don't they just called it Cannonball Run: The Series

They couldn't get the rights from Dom DeLuise, he's doing King Lear at a dinner theatre and his asking price was just too much.

goddamn copyright laws

Terrible premise but a good writer and a good cast. I'll check out the pilot.

 

[zanos]

I wonder how long it will take before they cancel this.

 

[ghost_x]

I reckon this may do quite well if it's handled decently, big ensembles seem to work now days

 

[GhostPoet]

DayBreak was canceled and that was a GREAT show...this probably won't do any better.

 

[ghost_x]

true true, Day Break was a good show, least we wern't denied watching new episodes

 

[GoldGoblin]

I'm wandering if this show could keep fans entertained for an entire season.

 

[Matt]

I think it can succeed for two reasons:

1) It is in Prison Break's time slot, so fans of the serialized formula who watch Prison Break may tune in, especially since Prison Break'll have ended for the season and they will need their fix.

2) It is the lead in for 24 and should cater to the same audience..

 

[ghost_x]

Thats quite a prime time slot to take for such a show

 

[Trainwreck2100]

It will be good, then get cancelled and replaced with a crappy reality show.

 

[Hunter Rider]

This looks pretty cool from the promo's ive seen,it seems a one season only show though.

 

[The Punisher]

I'll check this out for sure.

 

[Lt. Figgnuts]

I'll probably give it a look-see just because I'm a fan of Fillion, but I wonder exactly how long this show can last simply based on it's premise. Once the race is over, what then? New racers?

Might last for a season, but I dunno how it can be expected to go on longer than two at the very most.

 

[Abaddon]

Early promos looked lame, but the recent stuff looks interesting. I'm sure they can stretch the premise convincingly for another season or so.

I said the same for Lost and Prison Break, shows what I know

 

[Warhammer]

The show looks good.
Prison Break didn't seem all good either with it's promos, and see what we got.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

I'm definitely gonna check it out, looks interesting enough.

 

[CAH]

I'll be watching the pilot...I'm impressed with what I have seen so far...

[Matt]

I really hope this turns out to be a break out role for Nathan Fillion if nothing else. He is extremely talented and gets zero respect in Hollywood.

 

[ghost_x]

I'd say Fillions in a good place in Hollywood at the moment, he's got a large fanbase thanks to Firefly/Serenity and he seems to get the roles which suit his personality, the heroic han solo type character. He's not as big as some might hope, but considering the lack of large roles he's had, he's a well known face

idk about this!
