Line 21:
** "Surrender, America." The destination? Appomattox Court House, Virginia, where Robert E. Lee surrendered to [[Ulysses S Grant]].
** A pair of hot candies with wrappers that say "Atomic Fireball". The destination? The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in [[Cleveland Rocks|Cleveland]], with the clue referring to the song "Great Balls of Fire". Made especially frustrating by the fact that [[I Love Nuclear Power|Three Mile Island]] would've been a much more obvious destination, given the clue.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: In addition to [[Nathan Fillion]], this show also starred [[Melanie Lynskey]] and a pre-''[[Superbad]]'' Emma Stone, and featured an appearance by Minear veteran [[Wonderfalls|Katie Finneran]] as Alex's sister. [[Amy Acker]] was also slated to play Alex's wife, but she only got one appearance at the end of the last episode before the show was cancelled.

* [[Real Song Theme Tune]]: "Can't Stop the World" by Gavin Rossdale.
* [[Screaming Birth]]: Wendy is in the middle of one when she's introduced.
* [[Screwed By the Network]]: And how! The only consolation was that the two unaired episodes they had in the can were eventually released online.
** In spite of the efforts Fox went to in promoting the series, [[Ratings]] for the episodes they did air were ''terrible''. It's hard to blame them for pulling the plug on a show [[Needs More Love|nobody watched]].
* [[Shout
* [[The War On Terror]]: Rob Laird is a veteran of the Iraq War. {{spoiler|They want him back.}}
* [[What Could Have Been]]: [http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/drive-what-wouldve-happened-on-the-cancelled-series/ Here] is a rough sketch of how the show would have progressed had it not been [[Screwed By the Network|screwed over]]. Some highlights:
