ABC.com is about to unwrap a nifty new online feature that will allow you to create and share your own commentary on ABC shows. It all begins on November 7 with the first episode of V. From the look of the graphic, it’s only written commentary, pop-up video style (I was hoping for audio).

He'll be replaced by Scott Rosenbaum, hitherto an executive-producer on NBC's Chuck.
