Well, you knew this was one was coming. TMZ.com, the tabloid Web site started by former consumer watchdog Harvey Levin, is being developed into a daily TV series. Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution and the Fox-owned Television Stations are teaming up on a multi-year deal. Launch date is fall 2007. Locally, it will be seen on both channels 11 and 13. They're also offering exclusive TMZ content for the TV station Web sites. Here's the flackery:

The half-hour series will bring the TMZ.com brand to television, expanding upon the website’s mission as a 24-hour-per day, seven-day-per week entertainment news destination providing a fresh, unvarnished and sometimes irreverent take on celebrities and their real lives. Since its launch in December 2005, TMZ.com—a joint venture between Telepictures Productions and AOL—has enjoyed a meteoric rise, becoming the #1 entertainment news destination on the Internet within seven months of its debut and maintaining its dominance.

Broadcasting & Cable reports that the production will be based in Los Angeles - separate from Warner Bros.'s other newsmagazine series, "Extra." No anchors have been named but Levin says he's not interested.
