Dr. Horrible wins, hijacks the Emmys

I could normally care less about who won at the Emmys (although if I had to guess it would be some combination of Mad Men and Tina Fey), but one thing I did get excited about was Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog, which won for "Outstanding Special Class - Short-format Live-Action Entertainment Programs" (or as the director Joss Whedon puts it, "the award for most incomprehensible category"). Of course, The Doctor wasn't satisfied with just winning - he also had to take control of the entire ceremony (albeit briefly). Check out the hilarious results below, as well as Whedon's acceptance speech.





If you haven't seen Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog, check it out on iTunes. I ended up rewatching the entire thing after seeing this video, and it's still incredible. Great music, really funny, and also really touching. Whedon and co. hits another one out of the park!
