    Default Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

    Best. Internet. Musical. Ever.

    In my opinion anyhow. Who has seen this?

    Written during the writer's strike of '08, it stars Neil Patrick Harris and Felicia Day. It's a positively witty story about Dr. Horrible (Harris) and his dream of being in "The Evil League of Evil". He becomes side-tracked when his laundromat crush Penny (Day) talks actually talks to him.

    It's quite a phenomenal musical and it's only 42 minutes. Watch and discuss!

    How many internet musicals have there been?

    Anyway, this thing was great. I hope there is another.

    I really need to look into this. There's been like 4 threads made on this already, from the time it started up to now.

    My GF's best friend showed this to me. I thought it was pretty good, I'm not a huge fan of musicals but it has a Venture Bros. vibe that made it amusing.

    Yes, it is fantastic. Neil Patrick Harris is absolutely perfect in it.

    Have there been? I apologise for the repeat thread. I did search for it before-hand and nothing came up. However, you really should look into it; it's amazing!

    You can watch it at Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

    Hahaha, no no, don't worry about that. I'm just saying that I remember this being mentioned a lot, and 4 was a random guess. I'm positive there were three, counting this one, though.

    I'm pretty sure that I've memorized the entire musical, songs, dialogue, everything.

    According to itunes, I've watched it at least 8 times (I don't think itunes counts it when I just watch certain scenes over and over again).

    I've always thought Joss Whedon to be a genius. Ever since Buffy, and then with Firefly, and now with this. He has a brilliant knack for creating wonderful characters, making you fall in love with them, and then tearing your heart out by having something really tragic happen. That's why I love him.

    As a musical, it has to be up there with Avenue Q, Spring Awakening, and Hairspray as my most favorite.

    Well, all of the ones I mentioned were from Broadway... I'd forgotten Rocky Horror Picture Show though. It's amazing too. As for The Wizard of Oz, I don't much care for it, and I haven't seen the others.

    Yea, I loved it. And just when my friends thought they'd heard the last the "A Man's Gotta Do" song.
