Roommates

News Corp.'s MySpace online social network on Monday announced the launch of its first original scripted Web series, "Roommates," which will debut one of 45 new episodes each weekday through Dec. 21.

Developed in collaboration with Iron Sink Media, the show follows a group of eight former college roommates after graduation, four of whom decide to participate in a "reality show" and move into a house wired with cameras and computers.

MySpace signed Ford as a title series sponsor, and the 2008 Ford Focus will be "integrated into the storyline across multiple episodes."
