Have you guys seen this?

Remarkable. Act 1 is up now, Act 2 goes up tomorrow, and Act 3 on the 19th. The whole thing will disappear on July 20th, so take a look soon. Scroll down on the main page to Read the Master Plan -- apparently it was created by a very clever writer during the strike, just for fun.

So far, I love it!

I'm shocked to discover how talented Neil Patrick Harris is!

Joss Whedon basically has my soul. That guy is so awesom!

And yeah, Neil has come a long way since Doogie Howser. Although I loved that show when I was younger.

Oh, gosh, just realized Nathan Fillion is in it too. Swoon.

Who wants to flex their psychic muscles and guess what will happen in Part III?

It's funny how I'm rooting for this evil bad guy. I hope he gets the girl!

I loved, "she may cry, but her tears will dry when I hand her the keys to a brand new Australia!"

(Also: "The Hammer is my penis.")

Lets see.

Neither of them gets the girl -- Dark Horse does.

Ha! Do you think Dark Horse will show up in person? I mean, Ghandi.

Out a limb here, but Penny = Bad Horse.

Wouldn't that be delicious?

Brilliant! She would be the consummate Darkworker then, wouldn't she?!

Don't you love the Bad Horse's cowboy chorus? "So make the Bad Horse gleeful or he'll make you his mare..."

Man. I was just coming here to post this, but Angela beat me to it. Just finished watching all three acts.

The only spoiler I will give is that yes, Bad Horse does show up.

I saw it this morning, after hearing about it on NPR yesterday. It was entertaining, but I thought the singing was more than a little bit campy. I wonder why Joss Whedon has a fixation with musicals? Apparently, his favorite episode of 'Buffy' was the one where everybody was under a spell which forced them to sing (I've never actually watched a single episode of 'Buffy', but that is what I heard on the radio). I'm just glad that he never got around to producing a 'singing Serenety' episode...

Me, neither. I'm glad they did that. Poignant.

Ugh. Not a fan of the last Act, I gotta say. Maybe it was an attempt to lead into a full series?

A sequel would be fine with me! I'd love to see what happens with that evil Thomas Jefferson guy. Also to see what Captain Hammer gets out of his therapy experience.

I'm interested to see if they do go for mainstream media. They're probably close to being in the black already, so maybe an internet model would work for them.

ETJ did look fun, Angela. The kinda guy I'd like to write a Declaration with. An Evil Declaration.

I hadn't seen this thread! Glad I caught it - I didn't watch, but downloaded them to my iTunes to see when I'm more awake.

Neil Patrick Harris is one of the reasons I watch "How I Met Your Mother"; he's very funny on that show, and it's well-written. Well, and Cobie Smulders: hot.

I'm sure there's a cabinet position open for you... maybe spiritual adviser? We can overlook the whole non-evil thing if you can .
