Oxygen is bowing its first original Web series today, based on Tori Spelling's best-selling memoir.The Mommywood Webisodes, accessible at www.oxygen.com/mommywood, complement Oxygen's reality series Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood, which airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
The 10 three-to-five minute Webisodes bring to life Tori and Dean's joys and challenges parenting in Hollywood, including dealing with the paparazzi, first-time mom anxieties, losing the baby weight and, of course, Tori's relationship with mom Candy Spelling. Each online installment focuses on a chapter from the book (Simon Spotlight Entertainment), which was released in April.
"Our audience's appetite for everything Tori seems limitless," said Oxygen Media general manager Jason Klarman in a statement. "So launching our first Web series based on one of her best selling books seemed like a no-brainer."
