TV geek alert! Nathan Fillion — star of cult favorite Firefly and a one-time guest on Lost (as Kate's husband) — will star in Drive, a Fox midseason drama exec-produced by Firefly, Wonderfalls, and Angel producer Tim Minear, TV director Greg Yaitanes (Lost, Prison Break, House M.D.), and scribe Ben Queen (Century City). As the title suggests, the show revolves around an underground cross-country race; Fillion — replacing Ivan Sergei (Jack & Jill, Charmed) from the pilot — plays a landscaper pulled into the event after his wife is kidnapped. (Hollywood Reporter, 12/15)

Shiny news for Nathan! Is it just a pilot so far though? Will it really be more than that? (Yep. I'm pretty cynical 'bout the whole TV land shindig.)
Anyone else hoping Nathan's character will be following Kate to the island in LOST? Or a least show up in another few flashbacks?

Yup!
I figure that would be very nice indeed.
I can't wait til "Drive" is on. Nathan and Tim reunited... they can't go wrong.
I hope like hell they don't cancel this, that they give it a chance to thrive and do well. I'm going to watch with abandon, hope for the best and enjoy it.

Shiny news for Firefly/Serenity! More people see Nathan's acting. More people see Tim Minear's writing/directing/producing. More people end up checking out Firefly/Serenity. More Browncoats!! And then Wonder Woman!!!
"will star in Drive, a Fox midseason drama" More than just the pilot.
LOST. Hoping. We have read that Nathan will be in at least one more episode. I think a Sawyer flashback for various reasons. I worked out a whole sequence where Kevin arrested Sawyer and Kevin is on the plane and is one of the two people sucked out the back of plane and dropped his shoe into a tree near where Jack fell. Is on the island the first night and becomes part of the smoke monster. Wishful thinking?? IT COULD HAPPEN especially on LOST.
Can't figure out if Kevin is a good guy/bad cop or a good guy gone bad because of Kate or a good guy just killed because of Kate--seems to be lots of those. Does he follow Kate to kill her or save her? Seems like nobody is totally good or totally evil on LOST. And we know Nathan can portray a totally evil guy...see Caleb in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Speaking of wishful thinking!!!
Come on Serenity Special Edition!! Sequel. Sequel. Serenity set we can tour at Universal. Firefly like movies/episodes on Sci-Fi/DVD.
IT COULD HAPPEN.
