## Overview

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is a 42-minute tragicomic musical in three acts, each released separately. It tells the story of Dr. Horrible, an aspiring supervillain, Captain Hammer, his superhero nemesis, and Penny, their mutual love interest. The movie was written by writer/director Joss Whedon, his brothers Zack Whedon and Jed Whedon, and Jed's then fiancée, actress Maurissa Tancharoen. The writing team penned the musical during the WGA strike. The idea was to create something small and inexpensive, yet professionally done, in a way that would circumvent the issues that were being protested during the strike.

#### Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

This still holds up after all these years; its just as funny and clever as ever. Felicia Day and NPH really had something special with this bit — it’s too bad Dr. Horrible is largely lost to time.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
