Fox Goes Back to School for Season Premieres

Life just became more fun for teens heading to college this fall, as Fox plans to debut online content aimed squarely at them.

According to MovieWeb, when "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" and "Fringe" debut their season premieres this fall, Fox will also be unrolling those same premieres online simultaneously. Called "simul-streams," the shows will be available to watch online at the same time as their network television debuts. In addition, the online airings will also include behind-the-scenes footage and music videos.

But before you fanboys start salivating about the prospect of watching exclusive interviews with "Terminator" star Summer Glau, there's a catch: the content will only be available to students on college campuses using an internet connection that has a college internet domain (.edu). Guess that means everyone else will have to wait for the DVDs.

Fox will air "Terminator" on Monday, September 8 at 8 p.m., followed by the debut of J.J. Abrams' "Fringe" on Tuesday, September 9 at 8 p.m. --Chris Sardelli
