"Four fresh-out-of-college girls share an apartment in Los Angeles and star in a reality show filmed by a guy who is their friend. Except -- this isn't a reality show. All the dialogue is scripted. And it isn't on TV: It will be the first made-for-MySpace video series, to be aired exclusively on the Internet. Each episode will last a mere three minutes," reports Forbes.
A peek at " Roommates" looks like a video version of much of what already goes on inside MySpace: Girls dance around in their bikinis, flash their lacey under things and shake their barely covered bums at the camera. Says one of the girls in the trailer: "It's just like college but without the classes!"
The show is being sponsored by Ford, and in one episode, one of the girls buys a Ford Focus. As Forbes says, it's like a return to the early days of sponsored "soap operas".
