Dr Horrible & Joss Whedon
I’ve enjoyed too much of what Whedon’s done for television. I sat my girlfriend down to watch his latest exploratory project. Now, I am almost embarressed to admit that I enjoyed watching Doogie Howser when I was young, but I did. I wasn’t dedicated to watching all the episodes, or catching up on those I missed, but it was “good clean fun,” as they say. Nor have I really followed NPH’s career, and reading his wikipedia entry was an eye opener (I didn’t realize he’d actually gone to Broadway or received so many Emmy nominations.)
Anyway, Dr Horrible is an excellent role for NPH, and I found Nathan Fillion’s portray of the self absorbed ’superhero’ to be inspired (and quite out of character from what I’d come to expect from watching him in Firefly/Serenity).
You can head over to the fan website, and you can buy the soundtrack on iTunes (assuming that everything goes well between when I schedule this post and when you actually see it.)
Meanwhile, MTV has some choice quotes from Joss Whedon on the subject of Dr. Horrible.

We also enjoyed Dr. H quite a bit. They did a good job with zany antics… and Evil Horse!
