Sky One is launching an interactive television show called Skyrocket. The variety and interview programme, to be broadcast on Saturday evenings, will ask viewers to contribute to its content via its website, www.skyrocket.co.uk.
From November 20 the 13-part series will broadcast for 25 minutes between episodes of The Simpsons, Futurama and Family Guy. Interactive strands will include The Smithsons, a flash animated interactive clip show about a dysfunctional family. Online users can influence the content of upcoming episodes by submitting their own story lines, which are later voted on.
Creative director of Sky One, Graham Burrells commented: “Skyrocket is online-meets-television. It’s an exciting concept that marries the best of Sky One’s programming with cutting edge interactive technology.”
