Season Premier of 30 Rock – Exclusively on Hulu

By Ben Haber

Back in September I wrote about how NBC will be airing some shows on Hulu before they appear on TV. Well, that time has come, as the season premier of 30 Rock is now available online.

It’s an interesting experiment for NBC, as the show won’t air on television until next week and much of their dedicated audience will have likely already watched it by then. However, all of those Tina Fey SNL appearances might be able to boost the show’s ratings regardless.

What do you think of NBC’s plan to release some shows early? Will it pay off to create a buzz online before it airs on the network?
