FlyVote,

Did they put his name and Drive on the screen?

I'm replying from my Treo, so I'll keep this short.

I don't/didn't see "AI" tonight, but was told that there were more than a few Drive adverts and at least one pan to cast members in the audience. Drive has been featured a lot on NASCAR. The Drive premr will be shown right after the next NASCAR race probably in an effort to capture that audience.
Now my thumbs hurt from pecking at this teeny keyboard

What did you mean "and sitting in the audience"? Who was sitting in the audience? Nathan?

You were busy trying to get yourself lit on fire. It happens.

Nathan was in the audience, and so were a couple of others (but they were further from the camera, and thus harder to see - there was a blonde, I think). I accidentally caught the first few minutes of it. They put up a little graphics banner with "cast of Drive" at the bottom of the screen.

I almost stuck around to see more Nathan, but then I was like... "Nah." They do have a new commercial up on the site ( http://www.drivefans.com), and it's half-Nathan.

I really don't have details - I was just told after the show was over that this happened.

I've witnessed many more DRIVE adverts than Firefly. I guess because I've tuned to F*x to watch NASCAR. Since F*x is airing NASCAR they see the obvious benefit of promos during the races. And of airing DRIVE right after the next race.

Nathan and a couple other DRIVE cast members were at a race about a month ago and got some air time both in the pre-race show (aired on SPEED) and during the race.

Don't watch AI so I'll have to borrow my mom's tape.

The closest I came to seeing a promo (I don't usually watch Fox) is waking up reeeally early last weekend and turning on the tv. I had the mute on because I wasn't interested in hearing it at the time because I thought the noise would keep me awake instead of helping me get back to sleep. By the time I realized what I was seeing I fumbled around, trying to find the mute or volume button in the dark, but it was over by the time I found it. I was able to see Nathan though.
