Not really related to the arts in Yonkers, but I just want to say how fabulous Dr. Horrible is. It's a project by Joss Whedon (of Buffy, Angel, and Firefly) and it's just a great low-tech approach to making television by some commercial masters. And it's a musical. And it's got Neal Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillion in it. And it's cheesy. And the music is fun. And I don't even like musicals.
What I do like is seeing guys who are big in the commercial world experiment with crazy new technology just like everybody else, but bringing their big league talents to the table. This project doesn't have million dollar sets or lots of advertising behind it-- it's just got people taking risks and having fun (and who happen to have had more than a modicum of success in the field)
If you like science fiction, comic books, love stories, musicals, or the intersection between any of them, you will probably like this.
