Last two episodes of Drive online.
It's the last two hours of Tim's shortest lived, most accessible show yet. And you can read the shooting scripts here.

Thank you!
I can't believe Fox kept part of their word.
What is the difference between your link and the link
http://www.myspace.com/driveonfox Does your link work outside the US? Cause some people keep asking me if it will be available.

Drive banner if anyone wants to spread the news.

Heard there was an effort to get Skyone to air Drive in the UK.
Could't cost that much. It would be like a mini-series. Any effort in Canada?

Something about the concept of the show, I think, deserved (required?) a single through-line to follow, not scattered arcs of varying degrees of interest (most of them not particularly interesting).
Even if Tully weren't portrayed by Nathan, I'd still argue that the show should have been focused on him. Structurally, the story should never have cut away from him to anyone else -- we'd just follow his character's arc through the race, occasionally intersecting with other racers, but never leaving Tully to follow them.
*shrug*

Yay for the scripts though!

Grrrrrrr.

That's not to say that I don't like the show as it is. I do. I just think it started out a little too slow for the majority of people in today's viewing audience.

As for the others, I really wanted to like the sick dad and daughter, but felt like their storyline in episode 6 was getting really maudlin. Not fatally so, but something I would have preferred going a little darker in following episodes. Following episodes that will never be shot, never be aired. *sobs*

Wow, this is nearly as bad as you-know-who liking 'The Core'. Canadians don't get angry, say it ain't so ? ;)
Re: outside US viewing/pro*y addresses, folk might be interested in this thread from a while back, specifically Invisible Green's post. Most illuminating (though provided strictly for educational purposes i'm sure ;). And here's the wrap-up interview JediJuggler. Spoilers, obviously.
(having to download the player is very horrible though, not particularly good practice IMO)

admittedly the traditional Canadian tantrum consists of not much more than a pursed lip and a furrowed brow, all easily diffused by a cuppa tea :D
thanks for the educational info Simon, wheeee !

Of course, at base, it is still down to outmoded ideas about staggered releases, regionally differing copyright laws etc. which is ultimately down to the whole 'lines' thing. Rub 'em out I say ! Only not by invading people, they don't like it.

Phew, world righting itself, order restored ;).

If things in the world were easier. Businesses everywhere still haven't learned, figured how to deal with this new business / economic model - even worse, there's no model yet, everything is still in flux.
Having things online are changing a lot of things, but some of the analogical changes are not happening at the same pace.
Back on topic. I would very much like to watch these final episodes, but just like ESG, I hate watching things in myspace (as if I wasn't already limited by not being an US resident). I'll wait for alternative better formats to get them.
Numfar PTB | July 17, 07:48 CET
Oh and considering DRIVE: the problem the way I saw it was simply that the format was chosen badly. This would have been a kickass miniseries, say three-parter (90 mins each). As an ongoing show, it was doomed to fail from the start.

From one happy Canadian, whose tantrums typically consist of a lot more than a furrowed brow, but tend to be thrown in a quiet place, far away from others.
Judy | July 17, 11:10 CET
Honestly wish CTV (Canadian broadcaster of Drive) would find a 2-hour slot (or 2 1-hour slots) to burn off the last 2 episodes. Cuz the whole "gotta be in the US to see stuff on network websites"? Makes me wanna through something a bit more violent than a tantrum. And my tantrums are against the Canuck norm, if ya know what I mean;)
