You know what's funnier than Marc and Amanda's antics at work on Ugly Betty? Marc and Amanda's antics at work after everyone else has gone home and they think no one's watching. While Betty takes a break, ABC will add a new webisode of Mode After Hours to this site each week until the show comes back May 7.

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.

This season, one of my favorite Gossip Girl characters has been Dorota, Blair's long-suffering maid and confidant who brings a dose of reality to B.'s hoity-toity life. Apparently I'm not the only Dorota fan, because now, Dorota will be starring in her own series of webisodes, available exclusively to those of you who use Verizon.
I think Dorota's a great choice for a web series — but is she the best?

In NBC's "first original online series," Gemini Division, Rosario Dawson stars as NYPD cop Anna who "gets entangled in a war between artificial SIMs life forms and the covert 'Gemini' group." Apparently the series will include 50 episodes (er, webisodes), with the first one coming online today.
I've seen the first episode, and the premise is interesting enough — especially since the series begins with the murder of someone close to Anna, which she then strives to figure out — but so far, the way the series is shot it looks so silly, it's distracting.

I would have posted this yesterday when the first act of Joss Whedon's online musical series was available online except for the fact that it wasn't actually available for most of the day. All the fans (like me) who were lured in by the funny preview for the series were trying to view the first webisode, and too many curious eyes caused the site to slow to a halt.
Now it's working fine and it is my pleasure to announce that Act I of this funny, bizarre musical starring Neil Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillion is awesome.

Since I'm so happy about Amy Ryan coming back to The Office, I figured it's a good time to pass along some other Office-related goodies. The show's cast is back this Summer for another round of webisodes — the first round won them an Emmy — and the first sneak peek has hit the Web.
The first webisode features Kevin and Darryl teaming up to launch a fairly fraudulent business venture, and while the brief clip leaves something to be desired, it's just good to see those two very funny characters have a chance to interact.

For someone who lists TV and the Internet as major components of both her work and play, I've never been much into stand-alone webisodes. But NBC seems to be out to change my mind, because the network has a huge list of special online features coming soon for shows like Chuck, Heroes, and The Office.
Starting in July, those three shows will get new online series.

As much as I heart The Office, one of my biggest gripes about the show is that there's not nearly enough Kelly Kapoor. If you're in the same boat as me, then I've got a very special Thursday treat for you! In a new string of websiodes, we'll get to follow Subtle Sexuality, the new Dunder Mifflin girl band consisting of Kelly and receptionist Erin.
