Hey, Brigitte here with TV Squad Daily. I'll be covering the TV stories I find interesting each day, Monday through Friday, in this video blog.

Today on TV Squad Daily:

They found Scotty! Better late than never, James Doohan's ashes were finally located.
Rachel Ray is asking for people to participate in the Great American Bake Sale. For starving kids (riiiight.)
The value of a television commercial is changing, since we can just skip them if we want to now. Minisodes might change that.

The video's embedded below, or you can download the file directly (Quicktime required). You can also subscribe to this podcast via our feed.

Sony to air "mini episodes" of classic TV shows

Feel like reliving your childhood, but just can't find the time? Sony Pictures wants to help. The company is partnering with MySpace to create a Minisode Network that will show brief versions of classic television episodes.

Each minisode will run from 3.5 to five minutes in length. These won't be sets of random clips. Each minisode will tell a complete story. Which is to say, most 22 or 42 minute television episodes you watch probably have a whole lot of fat that could be trimmed without getting in the way of storytelling.

Programs will include Charlie's Angels, T.J. Hooker, and other content from Sony's television library. Interestingly, the project was already in the works when Sony executives saw the popular Seven-Minute Sopranos clip on YouTube.
