"Aim High" among the Buddy TV Fall's Web Series to Watch

"Aim High" among the Buddy TV Fall's Web Series to Watch

Are you getting bored with television's options this fall? Or do you just need more to watch than what TV can offer? If that's the case, there are several web series out there to fill in any gaps. We profile three series here -- only a small sample of the many, many Internet-based shows.

Aim High
Lauded by its producers as the "first-ever 'social series,'" Aim High counts as a big-budget, high-end production in the world of web series.

The show tells the story of Nick Green (Jackson Rathbone of Twilight fame), a 16-year-old high-school student who happens to also be a top-secret agent for the government. Thus, in between saving the world and killing bad guys, Nick has to pass physics and win the heart of a cute girl.

TV viewers will recognize a lot of the actors in Aim High. In addition to Rathbone's Nick, other main characters include Rebecca Mader (of Lost and No Ordinary Family fame) and Aimee Teegarden (from Friday Night Lights).

Aim High also has a gimmick: Using an application on the Facebook page (the only place you can watch the series anyway), profile information will show up in the show. Photos, status updates and your friends are all fair game in this crazy bit of technology. The results are fairly cool.

As for the rest of the show, it's about 7 minutes of teenage angst and impressive fight scenes. If you like your entertainment brief and morally-deprived, this is the series for you.

With the first episode available as of October 18, you can watch episodes of Aim High on Facebook.
