Broadway is Expensive. Times Square is a pain to walk through. Intermission isn't enough time to scarf down that $12 Watered-Down-Mojito which you can't bring to your seat. And that jerk in front of you is going to give a standing ovation to a reading of the telephone book. Why bother? We give you each of your (not so)
favorite Broadway shows, ten minutes at a time.

Oh, I almost forgot

Have people not been watching the Joss Whedon musical blog Dr. Horrible? It wasn't working on Tuesday, but now it's on a reliable web server.

How can you not love NPH?

Haha! I was just about to ask if you planned to comment on it. I find that NPH's Dr. Horrible reminds me of Butters on South Park when he created his evil alter ego.

My real comment is: it's good. It's not great. The lyrics are usually far from hysterical. The script's pretty damn clever.And contrary to popular belief, it and Joss Whedon are *not* the second coming.

"And contrary to popular belief, it and Joss Whedon are *not* the second coming."True. Then again I secretly like to think that Sondheim was the second coming and, unfortunately, just went somewhat unnoticed.

Yeah, I thought it was cute and funny. Not great, but it doesn't really want to be great.
