Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

You might have heard of this already, seeing as it's Joss Whedon. Or maybe you're not as nerdy as I am...
Anyway, watch this. It's fun. And Neil Patrick Harris is fantastic, as always.

Watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

It seems a lot of my posts have been music-related lately. Sorry about that. But, really, I'm not sorry. Music is good for you.

Let's Go the the Mall!

Teehee! Robin Sparkles, the Canadian pop sensation from the 1990s*! (The 80s didn't come to Canada until, like, 1993.)

*Actually from How I Met Your Mother. Theoretically the best sitcom on American television. Note I say theoretically.

More Señor Wences

This time with a chicken, too. These two sketches were from The Muppet Show.

Señor Wences

The legendary ventriloquist. He did all the voices. Johnny is the hand, Pedro is the head in the box. Probably the most famous catchphrase is the "S'okay?" "S'aright!" between Señor Wences and Pedro.

Argument to Beethoven's 5th

Sid Caesar and Nanette Fabray. This was a live performance, which makes it even more amazing.
He also played the football coach in Grease, in case you were wondering.

Game Over by PES

Fantastic rendition of classic arcade "game overs" done in stop-motion with everyday objects. Check out "Western Spaghetti" also by PES.

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace

This is the opening credits of Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. It's a fantastic British series from 2004 that spoofs 80s sci-fi/horror/mystery/drama/hospital shows. It also spoofs bad editing and even worse acting (or is it the the other way around? It's difficult to tell).
Anyway, if you've ever seen anything produced by Stephen J. Cannell, then the opening credits alone should make you bust a rib.
Embedding the full episodes is disabled, but here's a link to the playlist of all the episodes on YouTube.

Volume 3, *something that rhymes with 3*

Volume 2, Whoop-dee-doo.

Tonight, On a Very Special Xanadu...

You can sample some of the songs from my iTunes. I just discovered this iMix thing, and decided to give it a try. This is volume 1 of my playlist titled Eclecticollection.

Noah and the Whale - 5 Years Time

London band that evokes images of Wes Anderson films and The Monkees. Three cheers for that.

No more embedding, apparently, so watch it here on YouTube.

Turk does the Safety Dance

So, okay, it's a fanvid. But it's still put together well, and encompasses two things I love: 80s music and Scrubs.

Grooving the Bag, Mama

Dudley Moore and Peter Cook were comedic geniuses. This sketch is from the show Not Only But Also.

If you have the means, I highly suggest picking up a copy of the original Bedazzled (1967). And if you don't know who Peter Cook is, but he looks familiar, it's because he's The Impressive Clergyman from The Princess Bride ("Marwiage....marwaige is what bwings us togevva today...").

Apparently the embedding option is no longer available, so you're going to have to click here and watch it on YouTube. Sorry about that.

Now hop to it.

Folgers Happy Morning!

Ha-cha-cha-chaaa!

This should have been a real commercial.

Max Headroom - 20 Minutes Into the Future

Max Headroom!!! Oh boy, this brings back memories...
