Dailymotion and Warner Bros. Television Group Bring 'jPod' to Life on the Web
New York, NY and Burbank, Calif. (PRWEB) October 7, 2008 -- Dailymotion, the world's largest independent video entertainment website, and the Warner Bros. Television Group (WBTVG) today announced a content distribution agreement to bring all 13 episodes of the Canadian cult-hit television series "jPod" to Dailymotion.
Beginning September 25, "jPod" will be available to Dailymotion users for free streaming at http://www.dailymotion.com/group/jpod, with all 13 episodes posted at launch. "jPod" can also be seen at TheWB.com (www.thewb.com), WBTVG's new premium, ad-supported, video-on-demand, interactive and personalized network.
Based on author Douglas Coupland's cult bestseller of the same name, "jPod" is a one-hour drama series (13 episodes) which aired originally on Canada's CBC Television. With amusing twists and turns, the show chronicled the often amoral, lighthearted and even shocking lives of Ethan Jarlewski (David W. Kopp - "Psych," "Blade: The Series") and his four coworkers bureaucratically marooned in the bowels of a massive video game company, as well as Ethan's parents, Jim (Alan Thicke - "Growing Pains") and Carol (Sherry Miller - "Queer as Folk").
"Dailymotion is committed to bringing the most creative, edgy and entertaining content to our audience," commented Joy Marcus, Dailymotion's general manager, US. "'jPod' is exactly the type of series our viewers are sure to love, and with our massive reach, the show will receive more exposure than it ever could if it was only available on Canadian TV."
"This deal with Dailymotion for 'jPod' and our branded channels is a continuation of our digital distribution syndication strategy to give users the chance to engage with our content at their convenience, wherever and whenever they choose and to make our reach as broad and accessible as possible online," said Brent Poer, General Manager, TheWB.com
"jPod" stars David W. Kopp, Emilie Ullerup, Steph Song, Ben Ayres, Torrance Coombs, Sherry Miller and Alan Thicke. Produced by No Equal Entertainment, "jPod" is created by Douglas Coupland and Michael MacLennan. Larry Sugar, Douglas Coupland and J.B. Sugar are executive producers.
In addition to the distribution deal for "jPod," Dailymotion and WBTVG are also announcing the launch of a number of advertiser-supported Warner Bros.-branded channels on Dailymotion featuring full-length episodes of series from the Studio's vast collection of hit television programs, as well as original digital productions.
