Finally got to see Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog. By the time I got home from work yesterday, the site had crashed. Anyway, I thought it was cute. Up to a point.

Yeah, I felt like Fillion wasn't very strong in it--and I loved him in Firefly.

NPH was great, though, and I enjoyed the dose of very Jossian humor. Actually, it was kind of like a live-action Venture Brothers episode, although more sophisticated.

Whew! Glad I'm not the only one that thought that Nathan overplayed it. Neal Patrick Harris rocked it like a hard rocking thing though. :-D

Yep.

Pssssh, what kind of internet fight is that?

The grown-up kind? ;-)

UO- I think NF is massively, massively overrated. I mean, don't get me wrong. He's a really likable guy, and he's quite cute. I like him, but with the exception of Caleb (who suuuuuucked and was a two-dimensional character), he just keeps playing the same guy over and over and over again in various incarnations.

Call him Capt. Tightpants, or whoever it was he played in "The Waitress" or the love interest he played on "Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place" (or whatever the sitcom was called) but he's always Joey Buchanan, just Joey in different shows.

(If that's an obscure reference, NF was a kid actor playing Joey Buchanan on the soap "One Life to Live" before he ever found Joss Whedon or prime time.) I always like Joey, but whenever I see him, I find myself thinking it's still Joey Buchanan.

I think I have to agree with you (except I liked Caleb - he was quite creepy). But, yeah, he's a pretty one dimensional actor, as far as I can tell. Of everything I've seen him in, I liked Firefly the best. I thought he was dead boring, for the most part, in Drive.

And re-reading my post in your reply:

See! Even when I mean "Nathan" I call him "Joey!"

I'm afraid he's always be little Joey Buchanan to me.
