"quarterlife" debuts tonight on NBC; Saturday night on WKYC

NOTE: Because WKYC is airing the Democratic Presidential Debate, the premiere of "quarterlife" for Cleveland viewers will be Saturday Night at 10 PM.

The creators of the classic 80s TV drama "thirtysomething" are back with another series that's breaking new ground. The fact that the show "quarterlife" focuses on twenty-something's is not unique, but how the show wound up television is.

"quarterlife" started its life last year on its own social networking website.

Eight-minute webisodes about the lives of six twenty-somethings appeared on the site twice each week. Now those webisodes are full blown episodes.

"The show and the social network are really about what it means to take hold of your own life. To be a passionate, creative person who has dreams," explained co-creator Marshall Herskovitz.

"quarterlife"'s biggest dreamer is Dylan, played by Bitsie Tulloch.

The aspiring writer maintains a video blog that shares a little too much information about herself and her friends.

After the debut "quarterlife," it will move to its regular time slot: Sundays at 9.
