20060721_nobodyswatching1_160x120.jpgAmericans love a Cinderella story. Variety reports today that NBC is picking up the rejected sitcom “Nobody’s Watching” after it found new life on YouTube.com.

The quasi-comedy/reality show was created for the WB Network, which no longer exists -- although it wasn’t tapped as a promising prospect regardless.

So the producers put the show on YouTube in three 9-minute segments and -- ta-da! -- it's been downloaded over 300,000 times in less than a month. The chattering classes were discussing if it would be rescued, and now it has.

(Yes, NBC does own BBCancelled.com, but they did not ask us to write about this story. We don’t know if that means they don’t care about us, or whether or not they just forgot about us, but we’re not taking it personally.)

One interesting note about the new life of “Nobody’s Watching” is that a new website devoted to the show is in the works, one where viewers can offer feedback on what did and didn’t work.

It'll be interesting to see where the show goes. There's a nice little "Friends" cameo in the first episode.
