String Theory (Kindle Book)

If you have a Kindle (or the app) definitely check out the new crime novella "String Theory" from "Pink" writer Mike Maden. It's dark and twisted much like our show, and only $0.99 cents!

Another Great Kim Matula Scoop

More great press for Kim Matula (who plays College Nate in "Pink") about her growing popularity on the CBS daytime soap opera "The Bold & The Beautiful"...

Speaking of a promising newcomer. Starlet Kimberly Matula is giving a magnificent performance as ever suffering ingénue Hope Logan. The beautiful blonde actress won viewers over initially for her beauty, but she’s become a great performer.

Very proud of her success! :)

Kim Matula on CBS Series "The Defenders"

PINK star Kim Matula (she plays "College Nate") has an upcoming role on the CBS drama "The Defenders".

On her Facebook fan page she posted this...

Just letting you know that I will be on an episode of "The Defenders" on February 11th! ..It's on CBS at 8/7c. Set your DVRs and your TiVos :)

We set our DVR and hopefully you will too. The inside scoop is that she makes out with Jim Belushi!

Btw, you can also see her daily on the CBS soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful".

Exclusive or Super-Syndication Release?

Check out this good article talking web series release models from NewTeeVee...

http://gigaom.com/video/should-you-take-your-web-series-exclusive/

We definitely went for super-syndication with PINK, although for seasons two and three we gave Vuze a 24 hour exclusive - then the shows went out "everywhere".

Since 2007 PINK has been seen on YouTube, TheWB.com, Hulu, Yahoo, MSNBC, Vuze, Revver, MySpace, Koldcast, iTunes, Metacafe, Veoh, Blip, Break, and others we're probably forgetting.

If you're putting the content out for "free", then we feel it should be available pretty much anywhere folks can watch online video. However, if you're going for a "Freemium" or even a Pay-per-view (or VOD) then exclusivity is obviously the way to go. Or of course if you land a show sponsor, then likely one site or one portal would be used (unless it was product placement and then they might want the show to be available everywhere).

For the record, most of our views have come from YouTube, Hulu and Metacafe

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a great holiday and is ready for some great web television this year. We are still working hard to bring a new season of PINK to the world, but no word as of yet - so please be patient. :)

In the meantime, our sister show CONTINUUM just had its teaser trailer nominated for an Indie Intertube Award. This show will premiere later this year...

Thanks!

Season's Greetings!

We hope everyone has a great holiday season and a very Happy New Year!

Thank you for supporting our show!!! :)

Kim Matula Most Beautiful?

Soap Opera Digest thinks so, and so do we...


















You can currently see Kim starring in the CBS daytime soap opera "The Bold and the Beautiful". And you can of course see her as "College Nate" in PINK! :)

Web Series Viewers "Entertained"

Interesting article at Tubefilter on folks who watch web series...

A few stats:

•60% watch Web original video content weekly
•58% see Web originals as providing quality entertainment whenever they want it
•Over one quarter of viewers find Web original content to be more entertaining than traditional television

That's pretty impressive! We'd like to think we helped start this trend with "Pink", and we hope to continue it in the future too with more content.

Here's a link to the full article:

Digital Chick TV

Digital Chick TV is a cool site worth checking out. Their tagline is "Your Guide to the Best Online Shows for Women".

We're all about strong kick-ass female characters around here, and it looks like they are too.

And they just recently covered Pink's creator Blake Calhoun's new series Continuum (which also stars a strong female lead)...

Hey, we dig it. :)

EXPOSED Premieres on The WB

Thanks for watching!

TheWB.com Gets a (Needed) Facelift

TheWB.com got a recent facelift and it looks to us to be a similar design to Hulu, which ain't a bad idea. It's much simpler, with more space and a lot of white. We think overall it's a better user experience. The videos seem to play better too, although on our recent visit they didn't auto play the "next video" as it says it will, but we're still liking what we see.

Check it out for yourself at the "PINK" show page...

As usual, thanks for the support! :)

Well Said, Mr. Street

A good commentary about the Streamys and the IAWTV issues from a veteran web video creator, Tim Street:

Someone from old media once asked me, “Who do these guys think they are?” “Who gave them permission to do that?” I said, “It’s web video, you don’t have to ask permission, you just go do it.”

Read his blog post here...

Celebrate The Web

After the Streamy debacle a few folks got together and created an impromptu event called "Celebrate The Web" where the Streamy winners got together to "celebrate" their awards and the Web TV industry. You can watch the event at the newly created blog...

If you work in or are interested in this industry it's well worth checking out.
