Son of the Bronx was a website that compiled Nielsen ratings data for cable channels in the United States. Founded by former VH1 intern Douglas Pucci on the Blogger service, it specialized in publishing detailed listings of ratings for various major cable channels, as well as multiple sports television networks. From its inception in 2011, the site was referenced by numerous sources, using its data for selected cable ratings reports and comparisons of top-performing programs by websites such as TV by the Numbers and The Futon Critic. The site shut down on May 22, 2014, following reports of copyright infringement.
[NTSF: SD: SUV] began as a phony advertisement during the re-broadcast of the initial web version of Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim. That's right. As much as I'd like to take credit, I had nothing to do with it. Jon Stern is the connection – he's executive producing it with my good friend Paul Scheer. Paul was nice enough to bail me out when I was about 45 seconds to a minute short for one episode. They had shot that fake commercial as sort of a pilot, so Jon suggested sticking that in there.
The network has handed a 12-episode order to Paul Scheer's NTSF:SD:SUV which, as the title suggests, is a parody of the ubiquitous genre of crime procedurals. [...] The project leapfrogged the pilot stage, going from the clip, directed by Eric Appel, straight to series.
