Ahh but America doesn't. People watch those shows in huge numbers and what's more the production costs are typically a fraction of what they are for an hour long drama.
Which is why realty TV ain't going away anytime soon. Cheap to make, big audience = big money for the networks.

This show looked terrible from the previews, same with Black Donnelly's. Not suprised they were both cancelled.
With that said, Fox sure doesn't waste any time..

The last episode they showed had some amazing special effects. The camera showing the people in the car wasn't just from the front, it also panned to the side to show through the drivers window.
And the crash was amazing to see as they showed the occupants in slo-motion as the car starts tumbling. It wasn't the typical, "close-up of them screaming then switch to a long view of a car getting wrecked.
Too bad.

Fox will be airing the final 2 episodes of Drive on July 4th.
Not sure if those episodes will actually provide a conclusion or not.

Nope, it leaves ya with a big cliffhanger (unless they make changes). You can currently find episodes 4 & 5 on the net.

Episode 4 already aired. Episode 5 and 6 will air in July. There is an entry for Ep7 on IMDB but it probably never got made.

The 4th of July is typically one of the lowest rated nights of television of the year, somewhat mirroring FOX's decision to burn off the final episodes of "Arrested Development" opposite the opening of the Winter Olympics on NBC.
|
And networks wonder why they lost 2.5 million viewers in the last year. People are getting tire of reality TV and aren't willing to get involed in a series for fear it gets yanked after a few weeks.

Actually they have been bumped again according to ainticool.com. Right now there are no plans to show the final episodes. Which is probably OK - I gather the final shows produced offered no real closure to the storylines.

And yet ABC has decided to have another night of Bingo.
I'm thinking I'm better off just figuring out which shows are good and then torrent them after they have a season.
(Edit: Interesing thing about Bingo - it was saved because of its online component. People played along and ABC.com got a lot of business from it.)
