New Nathan Fillon series coming -

Preview of FOX’s New Drama ‘Drive’:

DRIVE is an action-fueled drama following a diverse group of Americans driving for their lives (or the lives of their loved ones) in a sinister, cross-country road race. Some of them have been coerced into joining The Race; others have sought out The Race themselves, hearing rumors of the $32-million prize. Each has a reason to compete. And each must win.

Among the varied racers are a man thrust into The Race in an effort to find his missing wife; a single mother competing under great strain … or possibly something much more strange; a buttoned-down scientist and his rebellious 15-year-old daughter; two brothers in a stolen, pimped-out Caddy that carries secrets of its own; and a gorgeous and mysterious female stowaway who may well hold the key to the secrets of The Race.

There are other competitors as well, but when no one is told whom they’re racing against, or even where the finish line is, anything is possible. With each mile clocked, the drivers get closer, not only to the finish line and a critical, life-changing victory, but to understanding the mystery behind The Race itself.

I'd not be excited about this if it weren't for both Fillon and Minear's involvement. The concept itself seems like it could easily be too clichéd. Then again, space westerns and vampire hunters don't sound entirely hopeful from their descriptions, either.

I need to take more advantage of my Nielsen viewer status, I think. "So... you're a Fillon fan, eh? I can guarantee that ol' Nate gets his fair share of households viewing the new show, if the price is right. Get me?"

Play my cards right, and I could watch TV for a living. A horrible, bed-sore ridden living.
