Josh Whedon Strikes Again
I'm predisposed to like anything from Josh Whedon, but his newest, an online webisode show, Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long Blog, is the cat's jammies.
The 3-part show is hosted through Hulu, and can also be downloaded through iTunes. The first two shows are available, and the third goes up tomorrow. If you're a fan of Firefly, keep an eye out for "Captain Hammer", and you'll see an old friend. However, everyone in the show is exceptional, including Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible, Felicia Day as Penny, Dr. Horrible's secret love, and, yes, that is Nathan Fillion as an outstanding Captain Hammer.
What an absolute treat. And to add to the enjoyment, also check out the fan site. But check the show out quickly, because according to the fan site, the freebie shows will end July 20th.

Oh great, now I have to wait until tomorrow to see how it ends.
I've been vaguely aware of Joss Whedon because my sister was a big fan of Buffy, but all of his work basically came during the years when I barely watched television (I'm only now kinda sorta coming out of that, maybe). So I'm not a Whedon fan. But that was really good. Thanks for the pointer.
(Your OpenID login doesn't seem to be working, BTW. When I try it from the home page, I get error messes about the MySQL database going away, and when I try it from a subpage, it links to a non-existent page.)
Sorry about not publishing this sooner. I'm also not getting my trigger actions to be notified when a comment is in moderation.
I may end up having to disable OpenID until I can see what the problem is.
