"Ctrl" web series on NBC.com

I just finished watching the first ten mini-webisodes of Ctrl (or "Control") at NBC.com. Tony Hale (Buster from "Arrested Development") is the lead and Emi Coligado (Piama from "Malcolm in the Middle") is the love interest. IMDB info is here. It's clever, funny, and even a little touching. I like the premise and they set up the series well to continue on beyond the premiere ten episodes (all between four and eight minutes with most falling in the middle).

Anyone else watch this or have thoughts on it? I wouldn't have heard about it but my DVR recorded a re-run of Parks & Recreation and there was a commercial for it during the credits.

111 views. Just me, huh? Bummer, I think it's pretty good.

I watched the first episode and really enjoyed the concept--I'll watch more. Good find.

Do you know if this is a web series with the possibility of getting picked up by NBC? Just trying to figure out if this is deemed as some sort of "trial run."

Pretty funny so far. I don't like the blatant "sponsored by Nestea", but I understand since it is a web series.
