Quick Clicks: Shannen Doherty in ‘Mari-Kari’, Vlogger Haterz, Rev3 on iPads, AtomTV

Web series and online video news worth clicking today:

Shannen Doherty is starring in a web series? Well at least the voice of the former 90210 star is. Set for a June 3rd premiere on FEARnet, Mari-Kari an 8-episode Japanese anime-styled web series is all about identical twins (and BFF’s) Mari and Kari. The hook for horror fans? Mari is a lively school girl and her sister Kari is a ghost who does anything she can to protect her mortal sib. Doherty voices both Mari and Kari in the series from creator-director Jody Schaeffer. [FEARnet]

, thanks to their first foray into HTML5. iPads, like iPhones, still don’t support Adboe Flash. Fans can now watch full episodes of all Revision3 web series straight from their iPads—we’re guessing that there’s a non-trivial number of Rev3 fans with iPads. In a somewhat bold choice by ditching Flash for HTML5—a debate that picked up heat last week with Apple CEO Steve Jobs jumping into it—the online network is one of the first to make the move.
