In Brightest Day, in Blackest Night

Today I received a box of Green Lantern stuff. I got two power rings, a DVD called Green Lantern: First Flight, a Hardcover Secret Origin: Green Lantern Graphic Novel, a Colossal Cannon Blaster and a Hal Jordan action figure with a Battle Shifters: Blade Attack toy. Green Lantern is one of those characters that got his start in the 1940s and then was revived and revamped in the 1950s.

TV Show: Drive: Impounded

I just read that Drive has been canceled. Well that is just Prime! I was very excited about this show and enjoyed the four episodes that were on TV, however the show didn’t do so well in the ratings so it was canceled.

Is this Tim Minear’s curse. Will a show driven by Tim ever keep from being canceled? And why does Tim continue to shop shows to Fox. They have screwed him every time. I just don’t get it.

Anyway there were 6 shows completed and now the question remains, will the last remaining shows be streamed online? I certainly hope so. I doubt there is enough fan support to stream it often enough to the save the show. I hate not knowing the resolution to a show like Drive.

Here is the Article from Variety thanks to Pop Candy for the tip off. Now where are we going to get out Nathan Fillion Fix?
