MySpace Launches 'Roommates' Web Series

Los Angeles-based MySpace said today that it has launched a new, online scripted web series called Roommates. The firm said that the series is the company's first co-development project, and the first original web series created specifically for the firm's MySpaceTV site. The series debuts today on MySpaceTV. MySpace said that the series was developed in collaboration with Iron Sink Media, and is sponsored by the 2008 Ford Focus. Iron Sink is a Los Angeles-based new media entertainment production company. MySpace has previously featured other online original productions, such as "Prom Queen" from Michael Eisner's Vuguru, but this is the first title in which MySpace has creative control.
