Ever wish that Firefly had more Car-Chases in it?

Well, uhm...

if not, you'll still probably enjoy Drive.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_(TV_series) Basic concept:

Step 1) Take Mal from Firefly and give him a 1970 Challanger R/T
Step 2) Kidnap his wife to force him into an Illegal Cross-USA-road-race
Step 3) Offer 32 million to the winner, invite (or kidnap/force) 31 other drivers with varying degrees of spooooky pasts or interesting characters.
Step 4) ???
Step 5) WIN!

Starts off slow...but Ep 3 is where things really start getting interesting. :P

There is no way this show can fail. Unless it gets the shoddy network treatment Firefly did.

Well FUCK

Cancellation:
The two-hour premiere of Drive in the United States, broadcast on April 15, 2007 at 8:00 pm, was watched by an average of six million viewers.[10] The program did not deliver the ratings FOX desired, and on April 25, 2007, the network announced that it had cancelled Drive.[5] The final two produced episodes may air on FOX sometime in May, or may alternatively be streamed online.

So.. Drive got cancelled like FF.. this sux something large.

Man, you have got to be kidding me. I loved that show, especially the fact that the one guy Nathan Fillion (mal) was playing won a race against a sports car with a truck of all things. Why is it that fox cancels every decent show they come up with.

Of course, they did air it at the same time as NBC was airing Heroes, which was an absolutely brilliant move =P

I wonder if they'll bring it back if we get 10million people to watch the other two eps?

Nope. Even if the people watching the ratings say: "Wow, I guess people ARE watching this..." the decision comes from above their heads.

It's a shame, too. Just when it was getting REALLY good.

The last 2 eps will be shown later on in a few months.. or weeks.. Fox doesn't know when it will air them..

As for Mal Smiling.. in a Challenger and not a FireFly class ship.. ITS MUCH MORE MENIACLE!
