Fox is pulling "Drive" from its lineup after the drama got disappointing ratings in first four outings, says Variety.

Despite decent reviews, "Drive" quickly stalled, averaging just a 2.3 rating and 6 share among adults 18-49, and 5.6 million viewers overall.

Monday night's "Drive" didn't help matters, coming in fifth place for the hour (1.5/5) and driving "24" to record lows, dropping Fox to fourth for the night.

Having shoved a Denver boot on "Drive," Fox has now gassed up "House" repeats in the Monday 8 p.m. slot.

Net is still mulling whether to burn off the last two remaining episodes of "Drive" on air, or stream the final episodes online.

It was expected, but still disapointing.

i was enjoying the show - i don't see how FOX could really expect it to do that well, they didn't promote it at ALL - I had never heard of the show before I just happened to catch the premiere episode.

I remember it being advertised, FOX should have found a better timeslot for the show and given it a chance.

FOX should of gave it a good lead in.. it would of helped. I would of moved new episodes of House to Monday at 8 to help out 24 and give Drive the post Idol slot thats what I would of done.
