Dubbed "24: Conspiracy," the show -- featuring original characters separate from the Fox TV skein -- will unfold over 24 roughly one-minute episodes; one seg will be downloaded to subscribers' phones every week.
Hey, does this mean I can video tape myself taking a crap for 24 minutes and sell it in 1 minute episodes?

I thought they already tried this with those Old Navy commercials.

The CONCEPT is interesting, from a marketing standpoint, but the technology is still way too far off, methinks.

I've got a lovely home theatre setup with a big screen tv, why on earth would I want to watch something on the tiny screen on my cell phone. Nor do I need my phone to take poor quality pictures or movies or anything else, I only want the damm thing to make phone calls.

I'm so sick of the gimmicks they keep coming up with just so they can convince people that they have to buy the latest, most expensive, phone so they can be among the cool people.

Since when did cell phones become home-entertainment machines, by the way, anyway?

This reminds me of the Conan O'Brien spook called "60", where each episode lasted one second. At least that one was played for laughs whereas this one's just silly.

if it involves Elisha Cuthbert having blatantly unedited sex with Keira Knightley and/or Natalie Portman and/or any other hot young actress, sign me up.

Ha! It happens sometimes I guess, what can I say? Besides, it's a good running joke for Asharak and myself.

What a stupid idea.

Actually I just wanted to mention I just finished Season 1, and damn, that was some fine quality programming.

Agreed. :)

Now if we can just stop Lee from muscling in on our humour (and girls ;)) things will work out just fine.

Provided you stay away from Keira, that is. I'll cede you the threesome with Natalie & Elisha, but I'm keeping Keira to myself. ;)

The fact that it features a TOTALLY new cast means it has to suck.

If you can't even get the fringiest of the fringe characters on board, you know nothing good can come from it.

If anyone from Fox is reading this, just to be clear, the cleavage cam would be a nice extra, but it's not requirement.

And really, I don't even need the beach in there.
