Dr. Horrible

I always forget that Joss Whedon is of the Stephen Sondheim school of storytelling when I'm in the thick of the story. The I remember, and I think, "Yup, Joss, you caught me again."

That's my non-spoilery review of Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. Go watch it.

I saw someone post, "Joss did his funny trick again," which I thought was an apt way of summing that up. ;)

That said, I get why it makes sense for the story he was telling, and how it led to the ending that *worked*--as the villain becoming the hero at the end of the superhero story is also kind of "done." I liked it better the second time I watched it--which is actually also true for how I felt about Serenity.
