I am looking forward to it. The first two episodes were about 6 minutes a pop. I think they will also compile the episodes for each week. Right now they have the first two compiled together. You can see it at NBC, Hulu, SciFi website and on mobile.
Release schedule: Two episodes last week. Two episodes this next week, one on Monday and one on Tuesday. The interactive experience starts this coming Friday. Then they will be releasing a daily episode Monday-Thursday.
They will release 50 episodes. I liked Afterworld and I am looking forward to Gemini Division. Looks like they really are starting to rethink media in a digital media age!

Unfortunately this is another one that is “unavailable in your location”. I guess if you are outside the US then you are out of luck here.

Hmmmm. Could be worth it, but it feels like something I’d forget about too easily. Three minutes is such a short time… On the other hand, letting the episodes build up before watching might be more to my liking. Hopefully they take it out of the ‘I’m talking to you about my strange day from the comfort of my room’ box and play around with it more. I’ll be keeping tabs on this one.

Oh my goodness, another one? Could it be that we’re seeing an awakening on the part of broadcast companies to the potential of the web as the new media-content-delivery system? Interesting…
I am definitely going to be checking this out, the story sounds like fun and Rosario Dawson sweetens the deal too. But three minute episodes? Sounds like a lot of cliffhangers.
The only odd thing is…why have I not heard more buzz surrounding this project? Sounds like a modest-at-least investment was made to produce this series.
My curiosity is piqued…
