Beginning in January, AOL customers will be able to access episodes of over 300 Warner Bros. television series online. You can read the full story here:

For Selby fans, one of the shows mentioned is Falcon Crest. For DS fans in general, I suppose this raises some interesting possibilities about new outlets for the series.

I know we've talked in general, but a day I think is fast approaching when it won't be so much the 4 networks. Obviously, they'll still exist, but with everyone's busy schedule, who wouldn't rather just pre-decide what they'd like to see.

PS...I've said it before too, would still be some new shows...I don't think I phrased myself very clear...

That was a poor choice of words. The new service will be on the AOL web site, but you do not have to be an AOL subscriber to access it.

As for DS connections, I neglected to mention that Scarecrow and Mrs. King with Kate Jackson will also be featured.

AOL's placeholder page for In2TV has been changed over the past week to indicate that the service will launch in "Early 2006" instead of January 2006. 

AOL has a beta version on In2TV available here. The full version will supposedly launch on March 15.

For the Selby fans, the only Falcon Crest episodes online right now appear to be from the first season before Richard Channing arrived, but they do have the unaired pilot episode with Jane Wyman sporting a gray wig that looks like something crawled up and died on her head.
