Dr. Horrible Interrupts the Emmy Awards!
*buffering* LOL! or, why the internet will not replace your TV yet.
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, which won an Emmy although it was produced for the internet and not broadcast TV, can be viewed on hulu.com or on the Tubes in three parts: part one, part two and part three.
The show was written by Joss Whedon and his brothers during the writers' strike (remember that?) and has won a ton of other awards already. Whedon and co. more or less gave it away online, but also released it in iTunes and for purchase as DVD with commentary extras; despite making it available worldwide for free, the project has managed to recoup the $200,000 cost and pay the cast and crew. A lovely example of working alongside the corporate media structure.
