I Love Minisodes!
I guess I had missed Sony's Minisodes Network when it first came out. And there are still very few shows that are part of it. But the concept is pure genius: Edit old 1970s shows -- which tend to drag by today's standards -- in to six-minute "minisodes." I just watched the Charlie's Angels minisode on YouTube. It was about as much as I wanted to see -- except Sony needs to make sure to include the scene that's in EVERY Charlie's Angels in which one or all of the Angels wear something skimpy.
Nonetheless, this seems like the perfect way to serve up old shows on the Web. Hope we can encourage much more of this kind of thing.
