A new website from NBC Universal called DotComedy.com is now online and features a bunch of their content from a variety of sources. They’ve got everything from obscure John Belushi SNL stuff to clips from the new show “30 Rock”. They’ve also got the obligatory viral video section promising the funniest clips from around the web and even a section dedicated to content they’ve created specifically for online.
Heres a brief synopsis:
The focus of the programming on the new channel will be original, web-exclusive material developed specifically for DotComedy. The broadband channel will also feature content from NBC’s legendary late-night shows. Sitcom fans will find vintage material mined from the NBC Universal television library. DotComedy will also be home to a wide selection of stand-up, sketch material and viral videos.
