Dr Horrible. Pretty darn good.


God I hate Joss Whedon

If you've never heard of it before, Joss has written and produced an online TV show called Dr Horrible's sing-along blog. It's a mouthful, I know. If you want to see it in full, download it off Limewire, or some other peer to peer. There are songs on Youtube, but no full episodes.

Joss has structured this thing, so that in Half an hour, you come to really like this Supervillian wannabe, hate his arch-Nemesis Captain Hammer, and really hope that he gets together with his Laundromat crush, Penny. You're laughing at it, surprised by but enjoy the musical numbers, and completely enjoying the story.

Then, suddenly, he breaks your heart with the last two words of the show.

Why can't I make shit like that?
