Calling All Buffy, Angel, & Firefly Fans!...

Hey, guys--

I don't know that you're all Buffy, Angel, Firefly fans (but you should be), but since I am, I wanted to give you this update. (Also, show creator Joss Whedon is definitely a writers' writer, so I'm guessing you enjoy him as much as I do...)

Anyway, Joss Whedon's new Internet short, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, starring Neil Patrick Harris, has arrived! It debuted yesterday, and is now available at iTunes through July 29 for $4.99. Check out the preview...
