Bewitched, Bothered, Bewildered

I can’t remember much of Dougie Howser M.D. beyond the fact that I used to watch it regularly and that even my mother remembers it. However I do remember enjoying it immensely, then being rather surprised when Neil Patrick Harris (whose name I didn’t know back then) popped up on Starship Troopers years after Dougie Howser had finished.

Then he reappeared as Barnie and I saw that he was awesome. It seems everyone else has seen the light too, as recently we had him being cast as Dr. Horrible, an excellent short musical in three acts that was absolutely hilarious before hitting you with the kind of unexpected ending I should have expected from Joss Whedon.
Since then he’s also turned up on Sesame Street doing an excellent skit as a shoe fairy and quite frankly showing up Sesame Street’s regular talent with far superior dancing and acting.

Now…an old spice advert! You think that’s an unimpressive addition to the list?

Watch it, you won’t regret it.

So what do you get when the world’s of Joss Whedon and How I Met Your Mother once again collide? You get the one thing everyone’s talking about and I’m afraid I’m just going to have to join them. Written by Joss Whedon, obviously inspired by the Buffy Musical, starring Neil Patrick Harris (Barney, How I Met Your Mother) and co-starring Nathan Fillion (Mal Reynolds, Firefly)…

Dr Horrible!

Catch it quick folks, it disappears tomorrow, July 20th! It is must see entertainment!
