Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog

If you haven’t seen Joss Whedon’s Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog yet, you haven’t seen the internet. This is possibly the single best piece of media I’ve seen… since Firefly (excluding Wall-E). You’d better go watch it today, because it disappears on Sunday the 20th.

Why? Joss Whedon answers:

Once upon a time, all the writers in the forest got very mad with the Forest Kings and declared a work-stoppage. The forest creatures were all sad; the mushrooms did not dance, the elderberries gave no juice for the festival wines, and the Teamsters were kinda pissed. (They were very polite about it, though.) During this work-stoppage, many writers tried to form partnerships for outside funding to create new work that circumvented the Forest King system.
