...the new 3d comp anim series on prime time TV I mean. It was actually sorta funny.
What's really interesting is that you can download, while watching the series, a video game (possibly made with unreal mod editor or something), with the characters from the series...and allegedly, they will update it regularly. Sort of clunky now, but...
Imagine if they start up multiplayer. Play online in the world you are watching on TV. Server specific hints, quests from the show, which has a very Sims like flavor, in game screenshots...
I remember some of the other 3d anim saturday morning shows, but that was long before the explosion of the mmorg.

Reboot. Man, I heard all the reboot games sucked too. What if they did this Game Over thing and brought the show back. I loved Reboot

Actually they did bring Reboot back but it didn't take off the second time. It was cool though. Megabyte came back from the web as a Trojan Horse virus and they killed Damien when she almost destroyed the internet.

I hear this is a UPN channel. I don't get UPN. I don't suppose it's on the WB, like Voyager was down here when it was on UPN, is it?

This show will never last. Although it has potential, it looks expensive. If it isn't an instant hit, it will die, and be replaced with another stupid, low budget reality program. Network execs only care about the bottom line, and creativity be damned.  |

I just saw the first episode and it doesn't look that great. The content is mature but it's just not funny. It's interesting that Lucy Liu plays the voice of the wife though.

Yea and network execs dont pay attention to silly little details like:
Real life set: XXX million dollars to build.
Virtual set: X hundred thousand to a couple of geeks
Makeup expenses: none
Lights, crew, lot rental: none
.....
