This is by the guy who did firefly and buffy the vampire slayer, Joss Whedon, and its pretty damn good. I highly recommend that you all take 10 minutes to watch the first episode at least, comedy gold i tells ya... http://www.drhorrible.com/act_I.html
I'd have preferred a happy ending, must watch the next one to see if he eventually gets the girl. Even supervillans need a little love.
yeah if you can't be bothered to navigate around to find the second and third episodes just change act_I to act_II or act_III in the address bar
