We are not LYING when we say that we love GSN’s hottest new show, Late Night Liars.
We’re so proud to be working together with GSN on this groundbreaking new show… Okay, maybe not groundbreaking, maybe gut-busting is a better word. Shrinking violets these puppets are not! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll cringe, you’ll be endlessly entertained. We promise.
Check out all the cool stuff at www.pmz.tv and be sure to tune in to the premiere this Thursday, June 9!

It would appear the folks at Microsoft failed to do their research before signing on to a much hailed sponsorship of a Family Guy variety show. The tech behemoth behind the newly launched Windows 7 yanked the plug on the deal upon seeing the content and realizing the nature of the show’s jokes didn’t quite “fit with the Windows brand.”
Now, we realize the tech geeks over at Microsoft have been busy launching a new operating system and making a series of embarrassingly awkward videos. But they’re not exactly living under a rock.

Her just-launched FloH Club is a tech-support hot line for older adults who want to become more comfortable with the whole world wide web thingy. The plans and services range from $25 to up to $250 for an entire year.
“…A proficient text-messenger, Skyper and active member on Facebook, she wants to help others learn to do the same.”
Everyone knows that Florence Henderson is capable—shoot, the woman handled six kids with panache and made fried chicken like nobody’s business. What’s a little tech support?
An interactive video player in the pages of a magazine can’t be cheap. So will readers respond? CBS and Pepsi are hoping so, with an exciting promotion to hype their fall lineup. A paper-thin video player will be inserted into the pages of the Sept. 18 issue of Entertainment Weekly loaded with video content touting CBS’s fall shows.
Perhaps if you want your message to jump off the page, you gotta make it creative. This innovative approach comes at a critical time for CBS who is battling (along with other networks) a ratings erosion due to increased digital options.
