For a couple years now, we’ve been seeing old television series re-syndicated via the Internet, along with original scripted video content developed exclusively for the Web. Now, for the first time, a series developed for the Internet is making the jump to network television: CBS announced today that it will br promoting its broadband series InTurn, currently running on its Innertube online offering, to its broadcast schedule beginning November 24, 2006.
InTurn is a reality series that followed young actors as they struggle to be cast in a role on the CBS daytime drama As The World Turns; Alex Charak, age 18, from Roslyn Heights, New York, was declared the winner. CBS will kick off the broadcast version of the show with a one-hour compilation episode highlighting the shows first 24 online episodes.
[Hey, Googling with the Stars debuts as a mid-season replacement, I think we’re all winners.]
