NBC has decided to release five episodes of its shows online a week before they air on television in an attempt to build buzz for the shows.

Hulu will showcase the first episode of Knight Rider as well as returning shows 30 Rock, Lipstick Jungle, Life, and Chuck.

This is a bold move on the part of NBC, and seriously shows that they have confidence in these 5 shows. If they didn’t, they certainly wouldn’t be putting them online before they air.

You’ll be able to check them out on Hulu.com.
