The way Penny says
Hmm...Now
I'm wondering about the words to the song she is singing in the laundromat. About being a sad girl who only knew trouble, about grief turning to pity. I think Laga is on to something.
Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

I'm glad I'm not the only person who's been speculating on how the third act will play out! Because I was trying to imagine how Dr. Horrible could have his happy ending, and that would be that when Penny sees his evil ways, she's not turned off by it, and that would mean that she's a little bit evil, too. Which led me to this mysterious evil-whinnying dude who've we've yet to meet, and in a story this short, introducing another actor if we ever meet Bad Horse would be a waste of space. So I thought: Penny or Captain Hammer. But Captain Hammer just seems too genuinely dumb and self-centered .
Is it midnight yet?
One of the things that I find so likeable about Dr. Horrible is that he really hasn’t been evil. Despite wanting to get into the evil league of evil, he is offended at the thought of hurting kids or smothering grandmothers. “Do I even know you?” It’s only when Capt. Hammer shows his smarmy side, disrespecting Penny, that Billy decides to show us violence. And even then its a '60's Godzilla representation. Before then Billy/Dr. Horrible is mostly just resentment and plans. I can't help pulling for a "villain" that cares for people more than the "hero".

I looked it up on imdb (which says it's a TV show. I was expecting there to be a new category for internet media) and there is a "more" under the cast listing which I did not click on in case we do get to meet Bad Horse.
Attempting to get it to load now. (I have my doubts.)
not even a minute in and i have to say...
FURY and Marti!!!
It's stuck on the "r" in Dr. in the title graphics - it's "buffering". . . is it possible that it will be horrible and slow the first time through and then play smoothly after that? (You know, the way youtube works.)
Now it's gone back to "Felicia Day in". . .
I think they're in the process of getting it up on iTunes. I tried downloading, but it's not there yet. The :30 clip is on and I saw it and now I want to see the whole thing.
Marti Noxon and David Fury!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
well...that was tragic! we should have known. what with it being Joss and all.
