From today’s NYTimes interview with Joss Whedon (creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer) re: his new show “Dollhouse”

Q. What was your thinking behind “Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog”?

A. Twofold. On one hand I wanted to set an example of the creative community making something without any help from studios of any kind and actually getting it out to the public and making a profit on it. And the other half was my feeling that there are not nearly enough supervillain musicals.
