Remember I talked about Nobody’s Watching a while back? It was the pilot for a comedy that didn’t get picked up, but which its creators decided to put on YouTube.
Well, it’s been so successful, Variety reports, it looks like NBC is going to commission six episodes. The fact it’s going to be cheap to make might have swayed NBC, but apparently Web 2.0 is seeping into the consciousness of network executives over there as well.

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
