First Look: Rockville, CA
From The OC to Gossip Girl, every Josh Schwartz project has always used great music — usually thanks to the handiwork of superstar music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas. Now, the two are teaming up for a new online series called Rockville, CA, an online soap for theWB.com set in a fictional rock club.
From the look of this trailer, all the standard Schwartz components are present: hipsters, snappy (if occasionally cheesy) dialogue, possible bar fights, and lots of making out.
Jimmy Fallon Starts His Hosting Duties Online Tonight
It'll be a few months before Jimmy Fallon officially slides into Conan O'Brien's chair as the host of NBC's Late Night, but starting tonight, he'll be doing some practice runs — and we can all watch online. At 12:30 a.m. each day, NBC will post a new video of Fallon on this new website.
Mindy Kaling, Kristen Wiig, and More Launch Strike.tv
Well, at least one good thing came out of last Winter's writers' strike. This week brought the launch of Strike.tv, a venture for comedy writers to put their own content on the Web without the interference of networks. (Think Dr.
PSA: ABC Now Streams My So-Called Life
Well, here's the most fun discovery I made this week. While pulling up a recent episode of Brothers and Sisters over on ABC's online video player, a few little words suddenly caught my eye. Did that really say My So-Called Life?
Do You Like Watching TV Premieres Early Online?
Earlier this week, I told you about a bunch of NBC shows that were premiering online early. Two Showtime shows that premiere later this month, Dexter and Californication, are also getting into the act with free online premieres (just enter the password "Lady Killers"). All of this has made me wonder: Do you actually like watching premieres before they air on TV?
Lipstick Jungle, Knight Rider Premiere Online Today
If you're wondering whether Lipstick Jungle or Knight Rider will earn a spot on your Fall TV viewing schedule, you won't have to wait till their TV premieres next week to find out. Both shows are premiering online today as part of an NBC plan to get shows into online viewers' hands early.
Lipstick and Knight Rider are just two of the shows NBC is premiering this way; Chuck, Life, and 30 Rock will also be up on NBC's website a week before their premiere dates.
The WB is Back — Online
Who didn't love at least one show on The WB? Back in the day, it was the one network that spoke to my generation, with shows like Dawson's Creek, Felicity, and Gilmore Girls all reaching the ranks of must-see TV. But ratings dropped over the years, and in 2006, The WB and and UPN merged into the new CW; The WB was no more.
What Was Your Favorite WB Show?
The WB network, once home of greats like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Dawson's Creek, met its demise in 2006 when the CW was formed. But starting next month, the WB will be revived — this time as a website that will stream classic WB series and new content from producers including Josh Schwartz and McG.
It's not clear yet exactly which shows will end up on the site (I'm assuming the popular ones are a lock — but what about the short-lived ones like Grosse Point?) The site will also show series produced by Warner Bros.
No Online Streaming for Gossip Girl: Yay or Boo?
Despite being one of the most buzzed-about shows of the season, Gossip Girl has never gotten great ratings. The conventional wisdom has been that the show's young, tech-savvy audience is simply watching the shows online rather than on TV. Now, the CW apparently wants to see just how true that is.

From big screen to computer screen.
Rosario Dawson, action-movie star, is now taking on a project of a different sort. She'll be starring in an online sci-fi series called Gemini Division, which will air on NBC's website — and maybe, possibly also on TV.
