Remember
Sony's Minisode Network? Basically Sony is sitting on a huge library of television episodes that don't see much airtime anymore. So the company decided to slice up classic TV shows like
Charlie's Angels, and
T.J. Hooker and create 5 minute "minisodes."
The interesting thing is that the cliff notes versions of these shows work surprisingly well, if you don't care about things like plot, character development, and dialog.
The minisodes were originally available online at MySpace. Now Sony is making the mini-shows available on
Crackle,
AOL, and
Joost, as well as
MySpace. Sony is also bringing more shows out of the vault including
Bewitched,
I Dream of Jeannie and
The Jeffersons.[via

Hahaha, love it. And nothing like "classic" clothing, hairstyles, and tech. ;)
