Ohboy ohboy ohboy.

I think I have outed myself as a hopeless Whedon fanboy before so here it comes:

<a href=http://drhorrible.com/ > THE BEST GODDAMN MUSICAL SINCE THE LAST ONE HE MADE [/url]

This is going to be soooooo awsome.



Yes... laugh at me all you want, I don't care. I'm in my happy place and no one can hurt me. Except... this guy.

I'm intrigued (but then, you  had me at "Whedon"). I'll have to check that out. :)

Aargh! I'll be on holiday without regular internet connection for the entire run of this!

But I'd happily pay for it when it comes back up for download, so that's ok.

Freaking Doogie Howser just keeps getting funnier.   Will check it out.

Dear GOD this looks glorious.  The delivery on 'So that's...y'know...coming along...' alone is glorious.

This is going to be the big release event of my summer, I know, far ahead of anything coming out at the box office...

I don't know why you're all getting so excited, this is Whedon we're talking about.
Just before the release, after having teased us with these amazing trailers and sneak peaks, he's just going to shove a giant metal spike through it and crush our dreams.
(Damn you Joss!)

Ok, the first part is online , at least for people in the US. They powered it through hulu.com (which imho is a smart move, at least in theory).
Thing is hulu.com only allows streaming in the US.
I got megapissed until I went to their facebook page. They said the shutout of non-Americans was accidental and they are working on it. Hope I'm able to see it today.

AAAAAND it's working for us Non-Americans, wuhuu. Fast response there.
Haven't seen it yet since I'm at the University right now, but can't wait to get home...

If someone had just shown me that without comment, I would have asked if they had tried to be Whedon.

And I didn't read the credits at the front, so it was a totally cool surprise when Mal showed up.

Did anyone else notice guys who looked like Alan Tudyk and Luke Wilson in the Bad Horse song?  Wilson was the lower-left singer, and Tudyk was the one who sang in Moist's face.  They're not on the IMDB page, so I could be wrong, but it would be amusing.

I don't think they are, see below.

BTW: Does anyone else doubt the evilness of an organization that has to call itself evil twice?

I believe you are correct. I was watching on my Nano, so it was very small.

That was pretty awesome.  After the "comic tie in" I was expecting something different.  Something, well, not as good.  I thought the blog portion went on a bit too long, but once things got rolling (er, or singing as the case may be) it really hooked me.

Can't wait for the next episode!
