My Love For Joss Whedon Is In Full Bloom

My love for Joss Whedon knows no bounds. I think he is one of our generation's most creative, visionary writers. The fact that Fox cancelled Firefly still chaps my ass and if that finally places me squarely into geek territory for good, so be it.

You can, thus, understand my glee when I discovered today that Whedon is pioneering full scale webcast entertainment with the on-line release of Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. From the guy who brought you the quintessential deep space western comes the tale of, according to Whedon, "a low-rent super-villain, the hero who keeps beating him up, and the cute girl from the laundromat he’s too shy to talk to." It stars Neil Patrick Harris, Felicia Day, and bethamsel.org's personal superhero, Nathan Fillion. Dr. Horrible will air for free in a three webisode arc beginning on July 15th. I can't wait!

Here's the trailer:
