'Gay Robot' finds love
By Andrew Wallenstein
Score one for DRM-free distribution given the news this week that Comedy Central is re-developing "Gay Robot," a project from Sony Pictures Television and Adam Sandler's Happy Madison production company. After the cable network rejected it in 2005, Sony dumped it on Bittorrent in order to gin up interest. Strangely enough, it came back in the form of animated series, which really twirls my knobs because if you're going to do a show about a gay robot, I want the real thing! But since dreams never die online, take another peek above at the original live-action "Robot" still kicking around on MySpace.
