Brilliant But Cancelled
Filed in archive Internet TV on December 25, 2006
For years we've seen some TV shows come and go. Fans sometimes successfully revive a canceled show (like "Family Guy"), while others were canceled because they appealed to a niche audience (like "Arrested Development").
Into this television reality, I introduce a Web site called Brilliant But Cancelled. Its idea is so simple: take shows that were cancelled and let viewers on broadband build an audience. It also takes shows that were never aired and provides them with an outlet for an audience. Finally, it has a community message board so that the audience can kibitz with each other.
Cory Treffiletti observed that there may come a day "when the networks (or whatever they will morph into over the next few years) will air pilots of programs online to see if there's an adequate audience before airing the show on live TV." Maybe, maybe not. But it is an interesting idea.
