Here's why Carpoolers may not be a bad show after all -- VIDEO
When I saw the first promo for the new ABC comedy Carpoolers it was at the same time I saw the preview for the new ABC comedy Cavemen. Both took place in a car and neither of them were that funny. Since then, however, my respect for Carpoolers had grown to the point that it may be a show I may tune in to watch for the first few episodes (if ABC let's it last that long).
That was until last night. Now, I'll definitely be making sure to tune in to the show when it premieres on October 2nd thanks to a new promo that's been airing on the network and the family of Disney-owned channels. It's nothing spectacular, really. Just the four characters in the carpool driving along listening to the radio. Of course the song they're listening to is a little Phil Collins ditty called In the Air Tonight. And, the part of the song that we hear is one that is extremely famous to air drummers world round.
It's a classic scene, and one that has been repeated in automobiles since the song came out in the early 80's. Granted, your drumming may not have the finesse of those in the cast of Carpoolers, but you never had an air drummer instructor, either. You most likely had to wing it. So just watch the video and relive that moment several days ago when you had your finest air drum solo ever while driving along the New Jersey Turnpike.
