  • Web TV: “The All-for-Nots”

    By Mojo Flucke (April 02, 2008)

    It’s hard to believe that something so targeted, so calculated, so straight out of the wallet of ex-Disney mogul Michael Eisner could be so pretty awesome. But that’s exactly what the new Web-only sitcom The All-for-Nots is. It’s The Monkees and The Partridge Family all over again, 2008 style, with a little bit of self-deprecating Spinal Tap rock humor thrown in for good measure (for instance, they call themselves, in all seriousness, a “synth-pop-indie-electro-folk-emo- dance-gazer-punk-Americana-pop-progressive-rock” band).

  • SXSW: All-for-Nots Perform, Launch Web Show

    By Jenna Wortham (March 12, 2008)

    AUSTIN, Texas -- Five aspiring musicians are recruited to form a band and tour the United States. Sounds innocuous enough, if not a little Spice Girls-y. The catch? They'll be portraying a fake band in a new web-based show dubbed the All-for-Nots. It may sound like the plot from '60s TV show The Monkees, but here the band is a made up of ultrahip indie rockers and the show will air exclusively online. More...

    By Adrian McCoy (March 09, 2008)
