We’re sad to report that it appears that the Canadian Amazon release of Dr. Horrible has been delayed. During December the Dr. Horrible DVD was available for pre-order but by the time the end of the month came it was marked as having a “distribution delay”, today the listing was changed to say “Sign up to be notified when this item becomes available”.

Reports have started coming in now stating that existing orders have been canceled and the item will no longer be available but the Dr Horrible team says the item has not actually been canceled. The message being sent out by Amazon Ca reads:

We’re sorry to report the release of the following item has been cancelled:
“Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog”
Although we’d expected to be able to send this item to you, we’ve since found it won’t be released after all. Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience we’ve caused you.
We’ve cancelled this item from your order.”

We’re trying to determine what the situation is and will keep you advised.

You can still order the Dr. Horrible DVD through the US Amazon store. While this news is frustrating for those waiting on their orders, perhaps the additional orders through the US store will help to push the Dr Horrible DVD to the #1 bestseller in “Movies & TV”. At the time of posting this article, the Dr. Horrible DVD sits in #2 position. If you haven’t ordered your copy yet now’s a good time!

Dr. Horrible DVD reaches #2

There’s just over a week left to cast your daily vote for Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog in the People’s Choice Awards.  Dr. Horrible is competing with Paris Hilton and a fake (probably, I say the answer is in the shadows) video of someone jumping over a car .  How sad would it be if the horribleness that is Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog lost out to one of those!

You can vote once every day right up until the night of the awards on the 7th of Jan.  You can skip categories you don’t wish to vote in.  Make sure you select Dr. Horrible as your choice and then click the vote button.

Dr. Horrible, an Amazon Bestseller

The Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog DVD has crept up to the #3 spot on Amazon DVDs after being released a little over a week ago.

There was a mad pre-Christmas rush as people purchased multiple copies of the DVD with many choosing the expedited shipping option in hopes of it arriving in time to give as gifts over the holiday. Bad weather caused some shipping delays much to the frustration of fans who were eagerly awaiting their copies and many international fans are still awaiting the arrival of their purchases.

People have been spending up big on Amazon with Amazon reporting that this has been their “best year ever” so the high ranking is no small feat.

Reviews of the DVD have been overwhelmingly positive and the hidden easter eggs on the disk have spawned much discussion. A search for Commentary! The Musical shows over 11,000 results in Google not bad for something that’s only been out for a week!

Soundtrack CD sales have been a bit slower, perhaps due to the huge number of fans that have already purchased the soundtrack via iTunes or Amazon downloads but the CD is still ranking in the top #50.

The DVD is region free and will also be available through the Canadian Amazon store at the end of this month (keep watching this website for details on the Canadian release) and is expected in the UK soon.
