What began as a pilot rejected by ABC will now be broadcast on network television after a first run on MySpace.

It helps to have Hollywood credentials but if MSM says no to a good idea, online is a cheap way to back door its production. It will be interesting to see whether Quarterlife’s relative success online will translate into a hit in prime time.
