Dr. Horrible hosts the Emmys

Not that I really give a crap. I'm probably going to set the DVR on record and watch the whole thing in FF. Maybe. Maybe not. Probably not*.

Anyway, I'm just using this post as an excuse to remind anyone who is reading this that Neil Patrick Harris is brilliant. And he is hosting the silly event. Which will be over by the time this posts.

So why not watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog instead? Hmmm?

Hey look!  You can watch the entire thing right here on this very blog.  How awesome is that?



*UPDATE - OK, so I did break down and watch it.  Mostly in FF just for the NPH stuff.  And I was glad I did, because Dr. Horrible, Captain Hammer, Penny and even Moist showed up for an extremely funny bit that interrupted the accountant's segment.  Captain Hammer admitting that he loved CSI: Miami but the other two CSI shows were a bit too "heady" for him had me cracking up.  Well done, Nathan Fillion.  Well done.

Can't see it in the UK, sorry... But NPH is great. Will always love him for Starship Troopers.

Dr. Horrible is awesome and maybe I'll find those parts of the Emmys online somewhere.

Verdant Earl said...

Gina - he did.

badger - "We're in it for the species, boys and girls!"

Avitable - I'm sure they will pop up on some Whedon site soon, if they aren't already up. Very funny.

Slyde said...

i think NPH is awesome, but i havent been moved to force myself to watch the emmys in years.

id rather just read about it the next day from effeminate men like yourself...

Mrs. Hall said...

OH MY GOD!! Today, of all days, I need the Dr. Horrible sing along blog.

And I open my reader. And here it is.

God Bless you Green Man!!

Verdant Earl said...

Slyde - you should at least try to find the Dr. Horrible bit on the web somewhere. Totally worth it.

Holly - The Dude abides.

That Hank said...

Aside from NPH, the best part was the color commentary.

BOSSY said...

Oh yeah, this part. Forgot. Already. 12 hours later. Bad sign?

Verdant Earl said...

DG - Yeah, John Hodgman is briliant.

Bossy - I forgot what I had for dinner last night, so...

Callie said...

That bit with Nathan Fillion was brilliant

Dr Zibbs said...

I've got to tell you. He did a GREAT job.

I used to cringe when people said Billy Crystal was a great host of the Oscars. He's unwatchable!

Verdant Earl said...

Callie - Nathan Fillion is a man-crush of mine. I said it!

Zibbs - Crystal was decent for a couple of years, then his schtick got old fast.

savannah said...

i missed the emmy's, but i am watching NPH right now. thanks, sugar! xoxo

Verdant Earl said...

Savannah - any time! ;)

Michelle said...

I dig NPH A LOT!

Bruce Johnson said...

dont' watch broadcast television, so why watch the Emmeys? Nothing like seeing overpaid celebrities party to make me want to out out and weed the garden.

Candy's daily Dandy said...

That Doogie has growed up into a real man...

xcept, I HATED him in that Harold and Kumar in Guantanamo Bay (or whatever it's called) flick.

Creepy.

Verdant Earl said...

Michelle - he's likable.

Bruce - There are still a handful of shows that I watch on broadcast TV. But no way I would have watched if it weren't for NPH.

Candy - It's best when he plays against type. Like in H&K or Dr. Horrible or How I Met Your Mother. Plays a womanizing jackass so well you would never think he was gay in real life.
