How about The Islands? You see that one? That’s the web show that’s like a Staten Island version of Jersey Shore released before anyone knew the name Snooki featuring guidette Allie who gets to Manhattan’s Meatpacking district by way of bridges and tunnels and who’s proud of looking like Christina Aguilera from her dirty days when she had dark hair.
Do you know the lady that stars in both those you-gotta-watch-these online originals? That’s the lovely Stevie Ryan. And in addition to the two series above, you’ll soon be able to watch her on VH1.
Nellie Andreeva at Deadline reports the cable network made a 10-episode order of Stevie TV, “a half-hour weekly pop-culture show” starring Ryan and scheduled to debut in 2012. Ryan created the show with internet alum Dan Levy (producer, writer and star of Crackle’s My Long Distance Relationship) and James Kirkland (who also appeared in Levy’s Crackle series).
In addition to Scene Kid Love and The Islands, you can also click to YouTube to see Stevie Ryan impersonate celebrities. Her Rachel Zoe is fantastic.
