My favorite tidbit in the announcement yesterday from NBC about new web initiatives it is undertaking is “NBC Fantasy Talent Scout”:
Participants can build their own talent roster from three online agencies featuring characters from all NBC shows. By actively playing a subset of their roster each week, users will earn points and enter for a weekly cash prize, as well as a quarterly top prize of $100,000. Each character has an assigned phrase or action, and if the characters do or say this action or phrase - players earn points. For example, if a user has chosen Michael Scott (Steve Carell, “The Officeâ€) in their active roster and in that week’s episode he says “That’s what she said!,†they earn points.
As sad as it might be to admit, I have always wanted a “fantasy TV” game and although this is strictly NBC, hey, it’s something.

A friend of mine in LA actually has a fantasy TV league where you pick shows and get scored based on Nielsen ratings. They have a draft and everything.
