Dr. Horrible Rocks

Ok, I'm not usually a big fanboy about these things, but on a whim I succumbed to an ad on iTunes for Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. I paid my 3.99 subscription and low and behold, it was damned fine - though at the beginning it reminding me of my Designer Speaks piece, and I will steal the device of reading my responses to user mail (you've heard it here first, and BTW, the designer gets REAL user mail.)

Obviously NPH (That's "Neal Patrick Harris") is a talented cat - being one of the most redeeming things about Starship Troopers, especially in brown-shirt garb, but this musical blog is so well put together - so tight - so well done - and what makes it is the music, it is a musical, and though I'm not above penning the random tongue-in-cheek broadway number, they've done it with heart.

Yes, you've heard it here folks, Dr. Horrible has HEART, Baby!
