I have an apology to make...


People told me here that they were changing the date to July 13 and I chose not to listen to them, but to listen to my Rogers Guide. That was a mistake.

I'm sorry I got pissed off at you guys. You were right and I should've known better than to jump to conclusions.

LOL! And here I was sitting at the tv going what is Anger Management doing on? I had been told it was on July 4th and then I thought well maybe they put it on earlier like at 5pm or something. Thankfully since I come to IMBD practically everyday as I post alot for other shows I found out the date was changed. I don't get why Drive never lasted, it was a really good show. My mom thought part of that might be because while it was a different concept, there was just not alot they could do with it that would make it a long lasting show. And also because the cast was too big. There just wasn't enough storylines that could with it because they pretty much always had to be driving in at least half the episode. But that's just her opinion not mine. I think they could've tried to figure something out or only made it 1 season long or whatever.
Thanks for letting everyone know about the date change.

And then there's that stupid "Neison Box Ratings" thingy I still don't understand =/

Not a big fan of ratings. It part if not all of why the really good shows get cancelled. It's like, with the exception of some other shows, all people want to do is watch something stupid than something that might have some bit [even if it's small] of substance. I'm not saying that Drive was going to emmy worth or anything but it was different from the typical show.

And it wasn't a "reality" show, so the acting was actually believable. =P

It's stupid to like a show just because of its ratings. I mean, honestly... Fox STILL cancels Arrested Development, even after an EMMY WIN!

I dunno... Drive deserved better--that's all I'm saying. =/

I love that Simpsons episode where they're watching a reality show on Fox and then Homer goes "They should know by now that if they wanna sign on with Fox, they're gonna be stabbed in the back."
I'm sorry, it's just so true.
