Looks like some people are pushing to get the show back.

This same thing happened with the show "Party of five" which became a huge hit.  Anything could happen.

Typical!  The videos are unavailable outside of the US so we Canucks miss out!  And I was really getting into the show, too!

Unfortunately our AFN military network didn't air this show so I didn't get to see any of them. I can't go onto myspace either. Oh well.
Remember the show VIPER? I loved that show. Along with the viper and armored viper version, it also had the 71 CUda and various Boyd Cottington creations in the background on most shows. Anyone know if that show is available on DVD anywhere and how many episodes were there?

I would be interested in that too.  It was the show that got me started on Mopars.   :2thumbs:

Kinda weird but it seems IMO that some shows that had cool cars didn't have a huge following and didn't go into a lot of seasons.  Drive, Viper, Fastlane (Multiple cool cars!), Cobra (Shelby Cobra kit car).  Maybe just poor plot lines?  :dunno:

Although Miami Vice lasted a bit, but it may have been the Don Johnson effect.  Knight Rider did well too.  Starksky and Hutch was cool but you didn't see the Torino all that much.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

I think the women in bikinis also helped.

I had my DVR all set up to record the next episode of Drive this past Monday and I found out that it wasn't on at all.  Does anyone know if it will be on again next week?  Just curious.

Unless something has changed recently, it is suppose to be cancelled.  :walkaway:  I heard they had two more episodes left, but it does not look like they will show them.

Man, that stinks.  They should have cancelled the episodes that didn't have a Mopar in it.   :bricks1:

:iagree: If they had introduced the Challenger in the first episode the show may have made it.
