From the “finally, a focus group is useful for something” department: “Looks like MTV’s “TRL” has won a reprieve. Sources say an interactive replacement for the show, “URL,” failed so badly in tests that the daily countdown staple is off the chopping block for now.” (Not that TRL is great, but come on, URL? In five years, it’d sound almost as silly as Modem MTV.) [NYDN, third item from bottom]
