HBO SIGNS EX-ROCKETBOOM HOST AMANDA CONGDON

amanda congdon"Amanda Congdon, co-founder and former host of the comedy video blog Rocketboom.com, is developing a comedy program for HBO.

Details of the project are still being hammered out, but Congdon said she's aiming for a multiplatform property that will be integrated with original video content online. She intends to write and star in the series.

"HBO is exactly the place where I want to be," Congdon said. "I'm most interested in playing in that new dimension with two parallel levels of programming, online and on TV.""
