We told you last month about the planned wrap-up of KateModern, the very successful Internet television show exclusive to the AOL-owned Bebo social network. Well, today’s the day that all is put to pasture. KateModern is having its finale, and it’s going out with 12 episodes in 12 hours. The countdown to the series close began earlier this morning and will stretch to 7PM EST, with hourly videos releases complemented by live chats with and among the fanbase.
In fact, due to its viral achievements EQAL was able to secure both a $5 million Series A funding round and CBS partnership in the space of a single month.
Today’s KateModern conclusion, after its 300 episode run, is one which its producers have clearly wished to make absolute this time around. It’s been said that the murder mystery has effectively run its course, and to exit on a relatively high note with respect to viewer numbers helps EQAL to see that the show maintains its status as a major hit, start to finish. Studio co-founder Miles Beckett said, “KateModern has reached a critical peak in the storyline and as we complete the cycle, the many threads and mysterious elements will come together with an amazing conclusion.”
If you’ve kept your eyes peeled for new KateModern developments since the start of the season or even the show’s debut, you’ve likely already been made full aware of the day’s schedule. But for you casual viewers who’ve strayed or skipped over the episodic reel, you’ll see pressing questions answered, hour by hour this morning, afternoon, and evening.
