I think I'd like
Southland a lot more if it just focused on the cops played by Ben McKenzie and Michael Cudlitz. I find myself getting less interested when they cut away from what they're doing. I think
Southland should be like a fictional version of
Cops, showing the two cops inside the car talking and then going to various calls during the hour. I know, you're thinking, that's just
Adam-12. But I really liked
Adam-12!

The marriage of the internet and television production continues to mature. The latest entry, launching this week, is
Gemini Division. While it's too early to tell how the 50 episode saga is going to ultimately be received, it's still worth talking about.
Gemini Division is another big step for the future of internet-based productions.
The show is being produced by NBC Universal Digital Studios, which, among other things, means a much larger budget. Something evident in the cast which includes the star of the show, Rosario Dawson. That's a pretty big name for what is ultimately another experiment in the medium. She's joined by Justin Hartley, Danny Woodburn, John Kapelos, Kevin Alejandro, Fransois Chau, and Elizabeth Bogush, among others. It's not exactly
Ocean's 11, but those are all pretty recognizable actors.

(
S01E04) Brett and I are sharing reviewing duties of
Drive and I have to tell you right away that I am not as in love with this show
as Brett is. I adore Tim Minear and almost everything he does, but I'm not completely sold on this series. Too many of the characters bother me. I find blondie Ivy extremely annoying, and I find Ellie (the soldier's wife) and Violet (the so-called high school Junior) to be over-actors. The reason I'm holding on is simple: Alex Tully. I was intrigued following the last five minutes of last week's episode when we found out that Tully used to be a bad ass bank robber.

(S01E01/S01E02) To be honest, I was sold on this one long before we finally got a look at what the
Drive team has been working on all this time. I count myself as a Tim Minear fan, so his involvement was enough to get me interested. Add in a cast including Nathan Fillion (
Firefly), Melanie Lynskey (
Two And A Half Men), Kevin Alejandro (
Sleeper Cell), Kristin Lehman (
Tilt), Dylan Baker (
The Book Of Daniel), and Taryn Manning (
Hustle & Flow), and you really have something.

When I first heard the general premise for
Drive, I instantly thought of
Cannonball Run.
The Cannonball Run is a movie a fondly remember watching time and again as a kid. Tons of money on the line, fast cars, hot women ... I mean hell, I was a hormone-filled kid somewhere between 10 and 13 years old when I first saw this flick, so cut me some slack.
While there is the obvious similarity with the whole race-around-the-country thing with
Cannonball Run, after watching the rough-cut first episode of
Drive I can start by telling you one way where the two differ:
The Cannonball Run was for pussies.
