Musical commentary, Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog While Joss Whedon long ago made a name for himself as a master of nerd-friendly, high-concept genre entertainment, his master philosophy has only recently become clear: If it’s worth doing, it’s worth singing about.

The success of Dr. Horrible, which originally appeared online, led to a DVD release that contains the current pinnacle of Whedon’s tunesmith obsessions: “Commentary!
