new TV series: Fast Lane

[cojones]

Premieres tonite on FOX TV -- Wed 18-SEP at 9PM Eastern.

Sounds like "the Fast & the Furious" meets "Miami Vice" -- could be interesting. I've seen several columns proclaiming this "the best new drama" this season.

I watched the first ten minutes. This program is really, really, really, really, really bad. Maybe the columns you read were written by Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles.

thank god for my good memory. Anyway, I think FOX wanted to follow up VIP(Pam Anderson's show dont' ask me why I know about it) with even worse show... You know how FOX always wants to be the worst network TV in the nation.

Well, at least they have one good show.

24 is one of the best shows ever on tv, IMO.

Agreed

A few cool cars and bikes though... anyone know if they're featuring an NSX ?

IIRC they were in a "gear" type magazine.

Never seen "24." What's the show about anyway?

You know in the same token, I can't get into "Alias" either. Guys think the girl is gorgeous but I think she's just alright.

IMO, dramas and action are reserved for movies. TV is good for sitcoms, documentaries (gotta love the Crocodile Hunter <---ONE CRAZY CAT!) and the news.

The best show on FOX is "That 70's Show."
It's set in a decade I have absolutely no recollection of. Just lived through it.

You got that right Ken I made it through only 8 minutes.

IMO watching Seinfeld rerun beats watching any of these new shows. Even if I've seen the episodes 3 times already, they are still funnier than all the new shows. Oh but I do like watching Iron Chef

It's an espionage thriller that takes place in "real time" during a 24-hour day. So the first episode takes place from midnight to 1 a.m., the second episode from 1 to 2 a.m., etc. Kiefer Sutherland plays Jack Bauer, an operative for a government intelligence agency. Fox re-broadcast the entire first season once already, so I don't know whether they'll be doing it again and/or making it available on DVD. The second season premieres on October 29.
