(SPOILER)
First 4 minutes of Drive on Yahoo TV.
Watch the introduction to Tim Minear and Nathan Fillion's Drive. If you want to.
Thanks to Monique for the heads up.

I haven't heard too much about this show, and I don't know if it's going to make it's way to the UK anytime soon... I hope it comes soon, cos it looks great! And it was great to see Jubal Early again! I got goose pimples just hearing his voice (and I should point out, I'm a middle-aged straight man!)

So, does this mean no cool, introduction to everyone, one-shot opening sequence (even an abbreviated one)?

Wasn't the original opening sequence quite expensive? In the millions of dollars range? If so, it makes sense the studio wouldn't want to reshoot it with the new cast. I do think it strange they would pay for such an expensive opener, then change the cast.

Can't wait till Friday at 8pm (woohoo CTV airs it in Canada two days early!!!)

Now if it was on almost any other network than Fox, I'd probably be more optimistic about it's future. Somebody tell me something to make me feel better about this.

Oh wait, that's right, we Canadians get it two days early! Sweeeeeet.

I'd say it's had more promotion than Firefly, Wonderfalls and The Inside combined.

Damn, I guess I'm always going to see Jubal in that actor.
Can't help it.

What I didn't like:
The voiceover guy - lacked any form of dramatic gravatis. Not a good opening hook.
The car scene. First thing that came into my head, was "did I play this in a GTA game?".
On the fence about:
The hospital scene.
What I liked:
Nathan doing that grim determined look which he does oh so well.
The missing wife? A mystery which could keep me watching.
The detective. Don't miss with him. He'd be a very intriguing recurring character.

This clip did not get me interested at all. I've seen this stuff before. I am assuming it branches off from what we expect, but I would not bother with this if TM and NF's names were not on it.

HOWEVER, the voiceover guy is so "You, gentle viewer, don't have to be intrigued or curious or (heavens above) focussed, because I'm going to distil it down into it's simplest form and explain it for you now."
ARRRRRGH!
Reminds me of the crap voiceover FOX put on the Firefly credits.
Negative reactions to (more-long-winded-than-most) Lost seem to have made this problem worse rather than better and confirmed the executives' view that program makers shouldn't be allowed time and space to draw viewers into their world.
For God's sake FOX! Any show that can be put "in a nutshell" belongs in one!
I really hope that it's enough of a success that FOX leaves Tim to get on with it.
