So, a few months ago a failed WB sitcom pilot by the creators of Scrubs got posted to YouTube (
Part 1,
Part 2,
Part 3) with the premise of two best friends who decide that network sitcoms suck and they want to make their own, thus making a reality show about creating a sitcom (which itself is actually a sitcom). It, of course, never aired, but it was pretty funny and original.
So NBC decided to have an online experiment. They funded
an online show to do whatever they want and, if they get enough of a following, the show might get back on the air. But, even if it doesn't, it's still pretty fun.
Besides, one of the guys is Billy from BSG!
