A man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do… “Dr. Horrible” Act One is now online
The first act of Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog—the three-part web-based super-villain musical by Joss Whedon—is now online (or available for purchase from iTunes). It’s classic Whedon, which means that it’s pretty much required viewing.
Read Whedon’s master plan here. Act Two will be online July 17, and Act Three will be online July 19.
On a related note, Jeffrey Overstreet wonders—and rightfully so—why someone as talented as Whedon can’t seem to catch a break.

July 18, 2008 12:42pmThese clips have been great, I’m patiently awaiting the conclusion.
As far as why Whedon gets the shaft—over and over again? I’d say it has to do with the network. Fox has a knack for keeping some shows running far past their novelty wearing out, while jerking around and canceling the shows that are smart, and funny. Consider that Buffy and Angel aired on the WB forever, much longer than necessary—sorry, but Kristy Swanson will always be Buffy in my heart. As soon as Whedon started dealing with Fox things went down hill. It’s the network, not the man that is cocking things up.
