Popular Internet gossip site, TMZ.com, made its small-screen debut on Monday with the maiden voyage of "TMZ On TV." The syndicated show, airing in Washington on Fox 5/WTTG, is essentially a televised slice of the snarkiest, celeb-crazed spot on the Web.
The show was chock-full of MTV Video Music Awards coverage (Britney Spears' distressing comeback and the behind-the-scenes brawl between rockers Kid Rock and Tommy Lee). No word on whether the program will be digging for dirt in the nation's capital. TMZ's plans for a D.C. spin-off were quietly put on hold earlier this year.
TMZ.com is the Internet's top-ranked entertainment news site, with 9.1 million unique visitors in July, according to comScore Media Metrix.
