Since many people already use Tivo to skip commercials and watch their favorite shows without interruption, NBC is looking to Facebook to get people interested in fall programming.
Its new show Community will kick off this fall but for the lucky few who were able to catch it, the pilot episode of the show was streamed through Facebook, TVSquad.com recently reported.
Users can watch the episode by becoming fans and then streaming it through their site, but only until August 14. Other curious viewers will have to wait until the show airs.
The series stars Chevy Chase and Joel McHale and takes a light-hearted look at community college life for adults. McHale is most famous for his tirades on pop culture on another show called The Soup.
Since media sources reveal that NBC aims to target the Facebook-user demographic, the move is definitely a smart one that will hopefully build a solid fanbase and keep people involved.
With marketing moves such as this, it seems young people will never leave Facebook alone. Hopefully, as a recent study indicated, this behavior won't create massive amounts of jealousy between significant others over the amount of time one of the partners spends on the site.
