Creator Joss Whedon has announced the “air” dates for Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.  The episodes will air on the official website drhorrible.com as follows:

• Part 1 - Tuesday July 15
  
• Part 2 - Thursday July 17
  
• Part 3 - Saturday July 19

These episodes will “air” online only until July 20.

Following that they will be made available for download at a “nominal fee” and in the near future available to buy on a very special DVD “with the finest and bravest extras in all the land”.

Now it’s time to spread the word far and wide to all the corners of the interweb.  Grab some banners from the official site (or visit the promotional page on this site) and post them everywhere you go - and be sure to cover those places people wouldn’t normally hear about this.

This is your chance to play a part in changing the face of the entertainment industry forever.

Joss Whedon: “[Do] What you always do, peeps! What you’re already doing. Spread the word. Rock some banners, widgets, diggs… let people know who wouldn’t ordinarily know. It wouldn’t hurt if this really was an event. Good for the business, good for the community – communitIES: Hollywood, internet, artists around the world, comic-book fans, musical fans (and even the rather vocal community of people who hate both but will still dig on this). Proving we can turn Dr Horrible into a viable economic proposition as well as an awesome goof will only inspire more people to lay themselves out in the same way. It’s time for the dissemination of the artistic process. Create more for less. You are the ones that can make that happen.”

Doctor Horrible has launched its official website at www.drhorrible.com.

You can view the teaser, find promotional banners and sign up for the newsletter and find links to the official Facebook, MySpace & Twitter pages.

Go check it out!

Felicia Day noted in a comment on her recent blog that there’s no publicity budget for Doctor Horrible and called for fans to help out saying,  “spread the word however you can, embed the video, contact blog writers you know”.  When a blog visitor asked how the pseudo publicity team (fans) were doing, Felicia replied “…fans are doing a kick ass job!”, and she’s right.  Within 48 hours of being released, the Doctor Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog Teaser had received more than 60,000 hits.

Response so far has been overwhelmingly positive with many viewers noting that the teaser far exceeded their expectations of what Doctor Horrible would be like.

Ms Day left fans with more teasing saying, “Wait until some of the official stuff is up later this week or next, then the fans will really have stuff to work with”.

The Doctor Horrible team have set up official sites for Facebook, MySpace and Twitter so be sure to check them out and sign up Links over there —>

In the words of writer Maurissa Tancharoen, “Let it fly! Spread it like Wildfire!”

[ You can keep an eye on the hit count by viewing the stats on the video source page ]

This Teaser was due to be launched officially tomorrow however someone “discovered” it early.  We have however been granted permission to post it here for everyone to see and enjoy so … enjoy!
