NBC picks up Web series
The first television series that originated on the Internet and then got picked up by a major broadcast network, “quarterlife,” will premiere on NBC on Feb. 18, the network said Monday.
The series about six creative people in their 20s is produced by Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick, who also produced “thirtysomething” and “My So-Called Life.” The 36 eight- to 10-minute “webisodes” of “quarterlife” will be edited into several hourlong episodes for NBC.
New installments of “quarterlife” debut on the website MySpace.com on Sundays and Thursdays and are then released on the series’ website, quarterlife.com, the following day.
