Last year Zachary Levi starred in the short film CTRL-Z alongside Tony Hale (Chuck‘s Emmett Milbarge), which went on to win an award at Sundance. The film focused on a mistreated office worker who discovers that his keyboard has the power to undo the past by pressing, you guessed it, Ctrl-Z. Now NBC has adapted the film into a web series called CTRL, still starring Tony Hale but with Reba‘s Steve Howey taking over the role of jerk boss. The first three webisodes are live now, check it out!

Zachary Levi introduces the new Nerd HQ
A couple of weeks ago, I posted about the possibility of Nerd HQ’s return. Well, …
Brilliant! I love it!
The question is, WHY is NBC doing this? Is this a test run for a proposed mid-season replacement? If so, Zac must be a happy man. While we’re at it, does the postponement of NBC’s PARENTHOOD due to Maura Tierney’s surgery open the door for our favorite spies to be on air before March?
@Agent86 Why is NBC doing what? Producing original content for the web? They’re one of several studios/networks doing the same.
MERCY (previously slated for mid-season) has been moved up to take PARENTHOOD’s spot this fall.
I think Tony Hale is a wonderful actor.
Thanks for the clarification. 🙂 I guess what I’m really asking is ‘what’s the point?’ Have our attention spans become so short we can only focus on something for five minutes? What does NBC get out of all this? Is there really enough web advertising to make this a viable thing?
Tony Hale is great in this, I agree.
I have watched a few of the webisodes (4 so far) and I like it. They’re fun to watch right before going to bed.
