I actually just watched that an hour ago. I am not a huge Whedon fan, mostly because I’m sour and kind of crotchety and musicals make me moreso, but i really liked this. I for some reason have a love on for Doogie. I just discovered this.
Fun stuff.
A friend just linked it to me earlier today. I was either laughing, or chuckling, particularly at the cowboys. Oh god, the cowboys. I kept thinking they were about to spring into some weird YMCA-themed song at any moment.
I was so disappointed to not be able to see the next part ><
Toy Soldier SubZ reporting and this.. this sickens me. To degrade and attempt to destroy the good doctors image like this. How dare you attempt to harm the good doctors name. Doctor Steel is a good man, and he deserves much much more respect than this horrid “Dr. Horrible” theft.
I didn’t want to love a musical, but this is just about the best thing ever. I’ve not even been indoctrinated into the Joss Whedon fanclub yet, but DAMN. I’m about to be.
And I thought that Scrubs episode ruined me forever….
My personal bias set aside, I still wouldn’t be able to bring myself to watch this. It really just seems like Whedon’s trying to see if he can do what he did with the musical episode of Buffy, which is really kind of sad.
Dr. Steel has so much more appeal, and is actually doing something about that whole “taking over the world” bit.
Because my brother loves me…many many thanks for reminding me that this was coming out. I’m sorry that I let school keep me from commenting for so long! :-*
If you like Dr. Horrible, you’ll LOVE Doctor Steel! Toys, Robots, Mind Control Cookies, and not 3 episodes for a limited time only! If you are craving more singing mad scientist bent on world domination, then check out http://www.doctorsteel.com and revel in the ongoing movement!
Dr Steel is cool dont get me wrong.
its just Horrible is awesome too!
good art is good art.
knowning Steel well, i dont see a single song, or any story that coinsides BESIDES the mad scientist thing..
and Steel hardly made that up.
stop the fighting and get along! there is enough room in the world for many more mad scientists.. the evil league of evil is big..
bwa
bwaahhh
bwahhahahahahahaha
wah…
“The server at http://www.drhorrible.com is taking too long to respond.”
Sad!
Brilliant! Instant classic, in my opinion.

Link doesn’t work?
hehhe – I blogged about this on Monday.
And I watched it and thought it was pretty fun. Not exactly Oscar winning or anything, but fairly silly and .. fun.
I bought the season site on scene. Genius.
It is brilliant.
This is simply awesome in every way.

Dr. Horrible rocks. Thanks for the heads up. I have new respect for you Matt.
This is GREAT! I love it!! 😀

The true site, the original, the genius, the man who deserves the respect. The music is irritating, the script are poorly written
As a loyal member of Dr. Steel’s Army of Toy Soldiers, I will see to it personally that Dr. Horrible is destroyed. http://www.toysoldiersunite.com
That was a brilliant project. I loved episode 1. Can’t wait for Episode 2 today.

Absolutely fantastic. Thanks for pointing it out – since it goes down on the 20th, I would have missed it if you hadn’t. Cheers!
meh…
He’s Dr. Steel with less polish. Good for Joss though.
Do also check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP_6Dlvk0Xs for a Dr Dreadful’s YouTube Riposte!
So great to watch…Joss’s humour is unique and I love it!!!

Here’s a link to my review of all 3 of the acts for Dr. Horrible (this is a link to the 3rd one, other two at the bottom): http://masontechbeat.blogspot.com/2008/07/dr-horrible-act-iii-this-will-shock-you.html
ABSOLUTELY loved this! So clever – way to go Dr Howser 😉
It probably helps that I am a comic reader from way back so it fits so nicely into my memories of all those superheroes & villians!
Thanks for this Matt – first time I ever took a look at a site from a link inside my WP blog dashboard 😉
BTW, not one for musicals as such, but this was soo clever, I found myself singing along to most of the songs lol
Vote 1 for Dr Horrible (to get into the Evil League of Evil) 🙂
Legen…wait for it….dary 🙂
Yeah, it’s just like Dr. Steel. Except that it sucks 99% less.

I work for a broadcast network and we tried to sign Joss to do more web content. Dr. Steel? Eh, not so much.
Dr steel fans are just upset because it took Whedon a week to do what they COULD NOT DO in 8 years. Sorry BUT ITS TRUE.
dr steel is not NPH.. that’s all im sayin.
I wouldnt of even heard of steel if it wasnt for the PRESS horrible got ..
besides.. remember ROCKY.. like Dr steel is original .please stop the we were first crap
Art is based on building from the past..
Horrible is no more a rip off from steel than
Steel is from Dr Franknfurter!!
GET OVER IT.
how about
steel vs horrible in a showdown to rule the world .. there is enough room for many more crazy singing scientists.
Dr Steel is cool dont get me wrong.
its just Horrible is awesome too!
good art is good art.
