Here’s an interesting comment from my (blogless) brother George regarding the convergence of the Internet and televised media.
Not only are TV shows ripping off other television shows and doing parodies off of them, but they are also ripping stuff off from the Internet. Maybe it is assumed that the television generation is now moving to the Internet and you will only get a show like family guy if you pay attention to both.
“Peanut Butter Jelly Time” – Original.
“Peanut Butter Jelly Time” – Family Guy Remix.
Anyone else have an interesting example?

The Onion and CNN…
Alec,
This isn’t really an example but more of a comment on the convergence. I posted last week about videoblogging and how it didn’t make much sense to me. Then Steve Dembo posted about possibly having video catcher on your tv so that you could subscribe and view your vidcasts on your tv instead of your ipod.
How about the dancing baby on Allie McBeal? My mom never understood that one!
Ahhh … I totally forgot about that one Lona. Great example. And that one has been a while.
