Thing of Utter Brilliance (Joss Whedon-related)

[butterfly]

If you didn't know, what Joss Whedon did during the WGA Writer's Strike was... write. Specifically, he wrote a sing-along musical blog about a low-rent supervillian named Dr. Horrible.

The first part is up and it is brilliant. It stars Neil Patrick Harris as Dr. Horrible, with Nathan Fillion (Mal) playing his nemesis Captain Hammer, and Felicia Day (who played Vi on BtVS) playing Penny (the girl that Dr. Horrible likes). They burst into song.

Note: it appears to only be playing in the US but apparently Whedonesque is working on a way around that.
