Dr Horrible Prepares for Launch
The official Dr Horrible website at www.drhorrible.com is preparing for the launch of the web series. The site layout has been revamped ready to bring Doctor-Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog to the world.
Time is running out to spread the word – so go off now and post to all those places you’ve been meaning to but haven’t got around to yet.
Perhaps most importantly, post to those places that wouldn’t normally hear about this – spread the news far and wide – Dr Horrible is coming!
oh boy oh boy oh boy..am sooooooooooooo excited…bring it!
July 14th, 2008 at 9:03 am[...] LINK: Also, do not forget that Dr. Horrible’s premier episode is released tomorrow (july 15)! ↑ iPhone roundup around the webs older → Hopefully some Related [...]
July 14th, 2008 at 11:44 amYeah! I can see it when I get in to work at 0′Dark Thirty tomorrow morning…before the rest of the world wakes up and the servers get swamped and all of that. Whoo-Hoo!!
Oh, wait, all the people on the west coast are just going to stay up and it will be around morning tea time in England, lunch time in half of Europe and afternoon tea in Australia. Darn my US central time zone location!
Please, please, please let the servers hold out until at least 6am Tuesday morning.
July 14th, 2008 at 12:04 pmYikes!
Are we ready? I’m a little nervous.
July 14th, 2008 at 1:04 pmJust thought I’d let you know that as of this morning, the Dr. Horrible widget I uploaded last Thursday afternoon has been embedded over 500 places and received almost 20,000 hits. Hope it helps make Dr. Horrible a huge success!
July 14th, 2008 at 3:20 pmMountain Time always gets ignored
Seriously, I CANNOT wait!!
July 14th, 2008 at 7:34 pmSquee!!
July 14th, 2008 at 8:35 pmWaking up to Dr. Horrible? Marvellous!
July 14th, 2008 at 9:32 pm[...] first of three parts goes live tonight/tomorrow at 3:01 a.m. Eastern Time. Considering I have to be at work exactly three hours after that, I haven’t figured out when [...]
July 14th, 2008 at 10:11 pmOh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!!!
July 14th, 2008 at 11:39 pmHave to say, that having seen EVERYTHING that Joss Whedon has made, I am looking forward with baited breath for this release. U go dude. (oh, and keep Nathan Fillion busy, I don’t want that dude walking the streets)
July 15th, 2008 at 12:17 amPrepares ritual “please don’t let the site crash” sacrifice involving person who talks at theater, junk mail, and small pile of bread twisties.
July 15th, 2008 at 12:25 amCount Down to Doctor-Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog…
Just in case any of you needed reminding, we are just hours away from the debut of Act 1 of Joss Whedon’s episodic Internet musical, “Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.” Throngs of Whedon fanboys (and girls) are undoubtedly ov…
July 15th, 2008 at 2:53 amI’m so so happy about this! YAY! My inner fangirl is bouncing with glee, my outer fangirl on the other hand is trying to restrain the nervous/excited energy and it isn’t working very well. It’s like a caffeine high! *jitters around the room* Can’t…keep…still!
July 15th, 2008 at 3:20 amGreat big bummer for all international fans of Joss Whedon. It is only available within the United States of Whatever. Again everyone outside this weird country has to break the law to watch the show or wait until it comes everywhere in like 100 years.
Sorry, I’m currently just pissed! Really pissed!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:11 amWe’re sorry- currently our video library can only be streamed within the United States.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:11 amFor one- It’s 2pm here (East coast of Australia) and the video is proclaiming to be up. Did someone forget daylight savings? For two- WHY WON’T IT LET ME WATCH IT. WHAT THE HELL. THIS IS SO UNCOOL. AND NOW THE SITE IS FROZEN. I CAN CAPS ALL DAY IF NEED BE. SOMEBODY FIX THIS.
That was AWESOME!!!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:19 amSo Act I is up… and it’s not working because I’m not in the US.
I thought the whole point of releasing it on the internet is that it’d be, you know, international?
July 15th, 2008 at 4:19 amOkay, so I’m living in Canada, but same timezone, so this SHOULD be available to me now, right? The site says it can only be streamed in the US… and I can’t get it on iTunes (yet?) either? I’m killing myself! All I’ve seen was the 30 second clip on iTunes… I don’t want to live in a world with no Dr Horrible….:’(
July 15th, 2008 at 4:20 amI’m so sad! Just because I’m somewhere in Asia, I can’t partake on this fun showing?
I need my Neil Patrick Harris! *bawls*
July 15th, 2008 at 4:20 amI would be a lot more excited if Hulu actually streamed outside the U.S. I guess I have to wait for the DVD.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:21 amJust saw it and
!!!!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:21 amlove your hair…. no i uh love the air
song is gonna be stuck in my head all day
I think your time zone counting was backwards…
July 15th, 2008 at 4:22 amBah. Since it’s streamed by hulu, no one outside the US can watch it. I didn’t think I’d have a motive to pirate a free video…
July 15th, 2008 at 4:24 amhulu’s telling me i can’t watch because i’m outside the US (bangkok). is this really a US-only webcast? bummer. i guess buying it from iTunes will also face the same hurdles….geez double bummer.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:24 amSo, it turns out if you’re not an American, you can’t watch it. Sorry folks. Stop trying.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:31 amSerenity aired in Australia before anywhere else (by about 3 hours). I really thought Joss was different…
This is not really conducive to people not stealing Dr. Horrible.
Ahhh! Only available in the States? What madness is this? It makes me so sad.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:33 amI wanted to see it so bad. Good thing I live in Canada so without any sort of warning I can’t!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:36 amGrrrr…. It would be nice if us non-us people could see it.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:36 amI’m confused. The new time-zone times shows that it should be playing now on the east coast. NOT. Confused……
July 15th, 2008 at 4:37 amI’ve watched twice allready.. I need part 2 and 3. Two days is just too damn long a wait. I’m so happy I found out about this in time.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:39 amI may have a problem. I’ve already watched it 3 times and it’s only 12:40 a.m. EST. Then again, a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do. Off to watch it again before I go to bed.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:39 amI get error video is streamed in United states only. That sucks
July 15th, 2008 at 4:40 amaaaaaand… not available in canada.
fantastic.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:42 amBlocked to non-US viewers, what?!? This is like being hit in the nuts by a bucket of awesomeness!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:59 amNot available in Australia!?!?!
What?
Why?
Oh, why art thou so cruel, cruel Interwebs?
Why dost thou deny to me my Whedon-fix?
Not to mention my Fillion-fix or my Harris-fix…
This is toooooo cruel.
Just coz I don’t live within the US of A… it’s a jealousy thing right? You figure that as I am lucky enough to live in Australia I already have enough good things in my life, right?
It’s not bad enough we have to wait forever (if ever) to see any of the half decent shows from the USA on our ‘free-to-air’ TV stations? Now we can’t even watch a FREE broadcast on the Internet?
Have to say – this bites… and not in a good way!
July 15th, 2008 at 4:59 amThanks Joss. This was a great nightcap for my wife and me. That laundry room song was absolutely sweet.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:59 amThere’s a message up on the Twitter/dr horrible site: “Working on international…hang in there…”
July 15th, 2008 at 5:07 amWe’re sorry, currently our video library can only be streamed within the United States. For more information on Hulu’s internation availability, click here.
… I must say, very exciting.
July 15th, 2008 at 5:08 amSurely this is an error? Why are all the international times on there but have it geoblocked? Maybe it’s a glitch because it seems odd to list the times it’s available around the world but only have it as a US stream? Or did nobody think about worldwide rights? I guess we see the flaw in writer’s coming up with great ideas when picketing, thinking it through and being genuine would be nice.
July 15th, 2008 at 5:11 amEvery bit as good as I knew it would be!!!!!!! Thank GOD for more Whedony goodness!!!
July 15th, 2008 at 5:13 amHuge Joss fan here, but I’m in Germany, so I’m shut out as well. Not cool…
July 15th, 2008 at 5:36 amSomeone in the US should be nice and rip it and post a mirror.Seems like alot of australians are suffering along with me.
July 15th, 2008 at 5:39 amOh for god sake… another damn region blocked show.
Hurray for a US centric view of the world.
How can someone with the nerd credentials of Joss NOT have a worldwide release?
This is really sad.
And quite pathetic.
I’m bummed.

July 15th, 2008 at 5:43 amonce again with feeling was enough.

July 15th, 2008 at 1:16 pmDoctor Horrible is the bestest.
I love sing-alongs. Sometimes I sing during meetings at work, sort of like Muzak with words. It seems to make some people angry and others just get up and leave, but overall I think people appreciate it.
July 15th, 2008 at 1:59 pmSeriously everyone needs to chill. I am also out of the US and can’t watch it yet. I too am really upset, but come on! Are you really going to blame Joss and his team for being US centric. They did something new and amazing and FREE! There are some problems, but that was to be expected. I was able to try it this morning at work, and it worked (in Spain). I couldn’t watch all of it at the time (boss watching) so I was really excited to get home and see it, and now I can’t. I think maybe the site is overcrowded- who knows, But stop with this BS of only Americans can watch it. So instead on crying about it I am now going to go buy it on itunes.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:04 pmI live in Canada and was able to watch it. It was FANTASTIC!!!! Typical Joss, another great production. Can’t wait for Act 2 & 3. Have already downloaded it from I-Tunes.
July 15th, 2008 at 4:06 pmBut can it beat Evil Dead: The Musical?
July 15th, 2008 at 5:41 pmIs there a mirror site for the show? The official site can’t handle the traffic!!
July 15th, 2008 at 6:00 pmHow come I could watch it from Ontario, Canada? Not that I’m complaining, of course, it was great….
July 15th, 2008 at 6:13 pmI can’t see it in Ireland!
July 15th, 2008 at 10:49 pmTried everything to see this — disabled everything Symantec and Norton in MSCONFIG, shut down a lot of stuff using Services.msc. Still no dice. If anyone on Rogers Hi-Speed has gotten this to work, post it here (with more instructions than “disable your firewall).
This strikes me as nothing more than a cash grab — You can’t see it, but you can buy it!!! Well, no thanks, Joss. Season 8 comics were pretty poor, Dollhouse looks poor, and now this.
I am off the Joss-wagon.
July 17th, 2008 at 10:55 pmyou’re making a mistake Evo. That’s all I can say. A. Very. Big. Mistake.
to the makers, congratulations! it was absolutely wonderful!
I can’t wait for more and here’s to the itching hope of being able to work with you one day… *raises glass*
keep up the stunning work!
