Sci-Fi Channel Merging TV Show with MMO

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the lord-british-unavailable-for-comment dept.

Erik J writes "In a fairly bold (and quite possibly stupid) move, the Sci-Fi Channel has announced plans to use missions and campaigns of players in their own developed MMO to shape and guide a new 'ongoing' television show. They hope to have the project up and ready to air by 2010, as they work with game developer Trion World Network to create 'the ultimate merging of the TV and gaming mediums.'"

    It's about time someone made a show that could tackle issues such as grooming and addictions to pretending to be a hot lesbian, rather than a fat, balding man.

    This appeals to me because I happen to be a hot, young lesbians that just loves kids.

    not only more coherent that Uwe Boll's movies but it's different enuff from normal tv writing that I would watch it maybe.
