"Hail To The King"

This Is The One Episode Of Doctor Horrible That Really Ties It Up In A Knot. The Plot Is That With America in a Captain Hammer frenzy Dr. Horrible invents a 'death ray' which he plans to use on the superhero at the unveiling of the new Captain Hammer statue. Penny is torn between the hero and the villain, realizing that she may have feelings for Horrible. The stand-off between Hammer and Horrible ends in an ultimately tragic event for the doctor. Horrible becomes a worldwide phenomenon. This TV Episode Makes Me Think "Why Isn't This On Air This Is An Excellent Show Very Great Music & To Top It All Off Created By Josh Whedon What More Could You Ask For "Everyone Can Play The Hero's Trail" & This Is One Of The Best TV Shows I Have Ever Seen (The Only 2 I Think Are Better Are Firefly & How I Met Your Mother) But Don't Take That Away From This I Have Seen A Lot Of Worse Crap(Off The Internet & Off TV).
