Nobody’s Watching Gets a Second Chance
I love it. A failed sitcom pilot has been given a new life on the Internet. Nobody’s Watching, a sitcom that was previously passed on by both NBC and the WB was posted on YouTube in June. The show ended up getting a lot of attention and before you know it, hundreds of thousands of people were stopping by to check the pilot out. The show was created by Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence and two Family Guy writers, so there is an impressive comedic pedigree. Says NBC Entertainment president Kevin Reilly, “I love the spirit of the experimentation and I think if we can actually have something find an audience on the web, gravitate over to the network, continue with a web presence and have them feed each other, that could end up being a really cool thing.” To test the waters, Nobody’s Watching will continue online in a series of webisodes before airing on NBC. Look for the webisodes within the next month. At present, there is no guarantee that the pilot will ever make it to the small screen, but its online popularity could certainly improve its chances.
