Anyone actually watch Webisodes?

I was watching the Scrubs:Interns ones today some of which were very funny some not so much. But I was wondering if anyone watching these and if they want people to watch them why are they not advertised more. I noticed on the Scrubs ones there were a few things that actually made some of the seasons goings on make more sense. I know the Office ones are pretty funny also.
Will these ever catch on?

The Rescue Me Minisodes that aired on TV and the Net were hilarious.

I think for the most part, watching video on the internet (webisodes or full length episodes) is a turnoff for some people who would rather sit on the couch as opposed to a cramped desk. But, if you have your computer hooked up to your TV, than more power to you.

I watch them when they're included as extras on the DVD, like 24, Prison Break, and The Office have done.

But I also have my TV hooked up to my computer.

Outside of the Rescue Me & The Office webisodes, the only other thing I watch are the original programming shows on Crackle.com -- namely Angel of Death.

I've watched a few, but don't make a point of it.

I watched the Rescue Me webisodes, but other than that, no. I just never remember they even exist.

Re: Anyone actually watch Webisodes?

I might watch them at work if they weren't blocked. When I'm home, I have too much backed up on TiVo to worry about that extra stuff deemed too insignificant to be included in a televised episodes.

I mean when NBC touts their "Can't get enough of [insert name of show/characters here]?" towards the end of each episode, I feel like I'm saying "yes, I can" to myself every time. Webisodes are the most pointless web content ever unless your a totally obsessed fan.
