Basically, it's a 40 min project cut into 3 acts that Joss Whedon and friends put together while they were waiting to get back to work during the WGA strike. Neil Patrick Harris stars as the aspiring evil genius blogging his quest for world domination with musical interludes.

Episode 1 of 3 is up now.
I enjoyed it.

It's being streamed on Hulu, but unlike most everything else on the site, it can be viewed by anyone, even outside the States.

Tomorrow ep 2 is going up and then Ep 3 goes up on the 19th. They will remain free on the site until the 20th after which theyll be sold on itunes and as part of a DVD pack.

the wiki has more info.

Thanks for posting this. I forget this coming out this soon. Just finished watching and enjoyed it. Some people were talking about how this series being from Joss Whedon could possibly influence people and how they consume media. Maybe I'm just so used present day online media clips, but although I enjoyed act one it did seem a tad on the long side especially when viewing on a computer.

Whedon

Thanks for reminding me. I think I will wait until all 3 are up, then devour them together.

Neil Patrick Harris had a major role in Broadway revival of "Assassins" a few years back. I have the CD, and it was surprising how good his voice was; not a super-powerful voice, but really pretty good.

With a revenue sharing agreement with iTunes for all three and business opportunities opening up, Whedon is now considering further webisodes, as well as Broadway and film.

"We love the characters. We've done some cool things, and we think there's more to do with them," says Tancharoen.

KneeCo,

Spoiler:
"Captain Hammer will save us."


I just watched all three, really enjoyed it. Fillion was hilarious, and the end was very fitting.

Bump for this being put out there free again.

I watched it and it was horrible.
PSYCH! I love it.

Direct link to watch it (on the Dr. Horrible site)
Hulu link for full screen goodness.

I'd love to see some more of this. I'm just afraid that Whedon did the first three acts so well that the he couldn't achieve the character development he did in these 40 minutes. I'm sure he could do something entertaining, I just think it'd be hard to live up to this one with the same characters, but what do I know.

I was disappointed, and I love Buffy/Once More With Feeling. Didn't really think there was enough variety of songs, and no songs that packed a punch. Mostly slow sad type songs. I hate that.
