Producers abandon networks

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20754648/

"The creative team behind such TV shows as "Thirtysomething" and "My So-Called Life" are launching a Web-based show, hoping to find the creative freedom online that they say is lacking on broadcast networks. The show, called "Quarterlife," will debut Nov. 11 on MySpace.com and will also be paired with its own social networking site that will include story extras as well as career, romance and other information for the show's young audience."

While there have been online shows before, this is maybe the first one produced by big names and with vocal objections to 'network meddling'. Sign of the way of the future?

Well at least they're actually producing something and not just relying on UGC (as an archive researcher this makes me want to weep and bang my head against a wall)..
