So, for one reason or another, I'm getting this newletter from TV Guide about their TCA press tour coverage; most of it highlights Mike Ausiello's and Matt Roush's tour experiences (which, knowing how each of them write, are probably completely different stories), but they also put in the latest news from the tour. In this morning's newsletter, the most interesting piece of information is that CBS will put full episodes of their new fall show Jericho online. Actually, they'll be more than full episodes; they'll each be 90 minutes instead of the 60 (actually 44, given the commercials) that will air on the network.

When the Fall TV season launches, every network jostles to have its pilots seen by audiences and hopefully hook them into the action. Last year saw the first time the networks used the Internet as a platform for trying to reach an audience with various shows making their pilots available to watch or download online not just after their premiere, but in one or two cases before.
Now in a move that one isn't sure whether to call clever ground roots promotion or a security leak, five of the Fall season's big pilots have landed online across various torrenting networks - "The Class", "Shark" and "Jericho" from CBS, and "The Nine" and "Traveler" from ABC. The shows in question are also said to be DVD quality full screen versions, indicating these are likely DVD preview screeners that have ended up online.
