Dr. Horrible and the Sing-Along Blog is really, really funny. It's a web based comedy/musical that was made last year during the writers strike and was only available online (now iTunes and DVD). The episodes are about 7 minutes each and yet the characters funny and pathetic. It stars Neil Patrick Harris (commonly known as Doogie Howser M.D.) who plays an evil villain/scientist. He completed an application to join the prestigious Evil League Of Evil and is eagerly waiting for a reply from the leader Bad Horse. Dr. Horrible's character is a perfect mix of Dr Evil and that kid from The Wonder Years. To complicate things, he is in love with a girl that he is scared to talk too that he stalks in a laundry mat. Captain Hammer, Dr. Horrible's nemesis (played by Nathan Fillion) also has an interest in the laundry girl and the hilarity ensues.

Since stumbling upon this video yesterday, I have watched all the episodes several times and have been humming at work like a daydreaming weirdo. I don't know the words yet, just the tune, so it sounds uncomfortably like a commercial for My Little Pony.

Below is Act 1 Part 1 for your viewing pleasure and the next part is here.
