What do you do if you’re Hollywood creative genius Joss Whedon — the man behind Firefly — and there’s a writers strike on?
You take your skills to the web, naturally.
Of course, the WGA strike is over… but it may have been worth it, since as a byproduct we now have (drumroll, please…)
Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog is… well, it’s different. And entertaining, with actual recognizeable actors in it, and far, far better production values than any high school doofus with a webcam publishing to YouTube. It stars Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible, Nathan Filion as Captain Hammer, and Felicia Day as Penny the love interest.
It’s available to view — free! — in three 15-minute installments… but only through midnight Sunday. (Later, it will be available on iTunes.)
It’s a bit of mostly-light-hearted fun, and highly recommended. Catch it while you can.
I could not believe the ending. I was like, “huh???” No one else in my house really liked it at all.
Oh, well… I was enjoying it… right up to the point where… well… almost to the end.
