Line 48: ==Structure== Except for ~~"[[The Age of Cynicism]]," which is incomplete, and~~ "Tomorrow Never Knows," which contains seven acts, all of the Driven Wild Universe installments contain three acts, broken up by commercial installments known as "Commercial Hell." Wild created Commercial Hell because she thought it was standard practice to have commercials in a scripted fanfic, having seen them used by [[C.E. Forman]], [[John Berry]], [[Peter Guerin]], and [[Danny Bronstein]]. Wild's Commercial Hells would typically pick apart three different commercials between each act, everything from Mentos to the dot-com craze of the late 1990s to Superbowl ads. From "The Tie That Chokes" onward, one of the commercial slots was reserved for a "sneak preview" of the next DWU installment. In the second Commercial Hell of "An Uneasy Marriage," Wild went so far as to preview another author's fanfic: [[Daria 2: The Curse of the Misery Chick]]. Although Wild viewed (and continues to view) Commercial Hell as a time capsule reflecting then-current trends, she quickly grew tired of finding commercials to criticize. Her final two DWU installments have no Commercial Hells.
