FM,

I wonder if it's a contract thing now that Nathan is in talks with ABC for Desperate Housewives?

You know, I wondered that myself. I don't understand the vagaries of Hollywood deal making, maybe someone around here ( or Gossi over on the other board ) will give us a hint about that.

Still F*x will be F*x....after the moving it to Friday the 13th, I really wasn't surprised.
Mad...but not surprised.

Thank goodness this didn't air yet! I thought I's missed the eps, but then recalled that when I was zipping around the channels, I didn't see Drive!

Now, however, this new date really bites. My current Friday night lineup is JAMMED! Normally, I have Standoff, Numbers, Dr. Who, and now Monk and Psych starting this week. Most of these shows are on at the SAME TIME! I'm going to have to have TWO VCRs going to catch everything but Dr Who (which I have to watch at a friend's house because I don't have SciFi right now)

If Friday nights are such bad nights for TV why the heck do they put all the shows I want on at the same time on the same night?!?! ARGH!

Actually, Jake, you will miss the Drive eps, not because it'll be difficult to ccordinate watching time but because they aren't going to be on. F*x has cancelled showing them at all.

You will however be able to see Standoff, which is going to be on in it's place.

LOL@ Friday nights. All of us lovers of genre seek Friday nights, while the rest of the population is out or something.

Indeed.

If you'd like to express your dissatisfaction with F*x and their newest ridiculous programming error here is where to write them...

I'm more of a realist than an optimist, but I am holding on to a bare shred of hope that the final two episodes of Drive might show up towards the end of the summer, maybe once they've finished with Standoff.

The fact that they have taken it off the schedule for now might be because Bones repeats and the new, unaired eps of Standoff have been getting decent ratings.

just sent this:

Why do you seek to alienate more and more viewers?

First you gave us Firefly, and we loved it, and watched it even though you aired it out of order (how dumb is that, anyway?) then you killed it.

Then you gave us Drive, and we liked it, and watched it, then after 3 weeks (nowhere near enough time for it to gain momentum) you killed it.

Then you said we would see the last 2 episodes on July 4th, and we were hopeful that it would change your minds, and then nope, no Drive.

Then, you said we would see it on July 13th and again, we were hopeful, and again, you dashed our hopes.

More and more people distrust you, and hate you, and hope the network dies (myself among them), how is this good business sense?

Thank you FUX for once again proving that YOU are not smarter than a 5th grader.

Sincerely,
a viewer who will never, ever trust your network to make good decisions again.

P.S. I hope that the public notices that the decision makers have the collective IQ of a toaster, no, strike that, of a half-eaten piece of toast.

P.P.S. I hope the poor sod who opens this realizes that I bear him (or her) no ill will, I just want the network to die.

Why is the rum always gone?
