Tune In Tuesday: Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog

October 18, 2011

For those of you who don’t know, I basically worship at a shrine of Joss Whedon. It’s more of a metaphorical shrine than a physical one, because a physical one would be highly creepy. Anyway, the take-away here is that I think Whedon is brilliant and awesome and witty and incredible.

And in addition to writing very on-the-nose and intelligent dialogue for TV/film, he also sometimes writes music. And then employs his actor-friends to sing it.

Which brings us to Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, starring Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, and Felicia Day. It’s GREAT. Here are some songs from it.

“Freeze Ray,” Neil Patrick Harris

“A Man’s Gotta Do,” Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, Felicia Day

“My Eyes,” Neil Patrick Harris and Felicia Day

“So They Say,” Ensemble Cast

It’s pretty much one of my favorite things ever. If you’ve never seen it, it’s only 45 minutes, and it is streaming on Netflix. Or you could buy it on Amazon/iTunes. And you should. Because it’s worth it.
