Dr Horrible Rocks Their Socks, Too

DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN DOCTOR HORRIBLE'S SING-ALONG BLOG.

Got that? Got it? Okay:

Doctor Horrible on TV Tropes
Just look at this page! This is for a 44-minute web program. What the hell is wrong with us?

What I particularly like, aside from the overall brilliance, is the joy and love apparent from the writers. :D

Fortunately, this website has reminded me I need to type up my What Makes Dr Horrible So Awesome notes on Acts II and III, but unfortunately, its mesmerizing brilliance has kept me engrossed for far too long to start on that tonight. I shake my fist at you, lunylucy! My fist of gratitude and affection! [shake, shake, shake]

And for just a little bit of Lasseter-baiting, Expospeak! [runs away]

I have now wasted about 2 and a half hours of my life thanks to you and TV Tropes. Not quite your 4 hours, but still. It was all completely new to me, so I just had to follow link after link (like Wikipedia but much, much worse). Metaphorgotten, Deadpan Snarker, Wangst, Unfunny, Woobie, Nightmare Fuel, Narm, and even Petting Zoo People. It's so satisfying to see these things given names, and then to see examples that you know (like that Wesley torture scene in Princess Bride under Nightmare Fuel). Oh, and I almost forgot Uncanny Valley! That one has so many "OMG yes!" examples, and a really great explanation of the phenomenon.
