LAist TV Junkie: Wednesday

Doug Williams, host of Martin Lawrence PresentsYou just can’t keep an undead cable network down: TechCrunch has reported that The WB has been resurrected as TheWB.com, which launched today. The site will act as a source for all the TV shows that originated on The WB and has a number of interesting features. While one might argue with TechCrunch’s assertion that TheWB.com is now a competitor to Hulu.com, they really do have a pretty awesome search engine that will hunt down TV show episodes that feature specific words and phrases. Any network website should jump on that action.

Highlight of the night are: Ferrets on PBS, Luenell from Borat on “Martin Lawrence Presents”, and the women’s beach volleyball Gold Medalists on Letterman.
