Neil on Conan tomorrow (April 2nd)

By Rach | Published Sun Apr-1-12 -

Neil will be a guest on Conan, tomorrow (Monday, April 2nd) at 11/10c on TBS.

And if you’re a Netflix subscriber, you can now watch Doctor Horrible on instant watch.

These days, the amount of web series available online rivals that of actual television programming. In addition, the once held misconception that web series are some how inherently inferior to TV shows is largely dying off. One such web series that helped buck that notion is 2008’s Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog. But don’t worry if you didn’t catch it online, no need to search and watch it episodically. Netflix’s has added the movie version, which is essentially the full length story arc sewn together, to its Watch Instantly service. Don’t have much time to spare? Fear not, this genre gem is less than 45 minutes long.

According to Playbill, “The high definition and surround-sound screenings will be followed by a live question-and-answer session with Neil Patrick Harris, who will talk about the enduring appeal of Sondheim’s work, and the experience of playing commitment-shy Robert.

TV updates & a brief hiatus

By Rach | Published Mon Jul-18-11 -

Neil will be a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight, which airs at 11.35/10.35c on NBC.

Neil will also be guest hosting Live with Regis & Kelly next Monday, July 25th. Jayma Mays, who plays Neil’s wife in the upcoming Smurfs movie, will be a guest on the show that day.

And for our brief hiatus – both myself and Hilary are heading off to San Diego for Comic Con tomorrow, so there probably won’t be any updates until we get home sometime next week. We’ll be around on Twitter so if there’s any major news we’ll try and post about it, but if we miss anything, we’re not neglecting our duties!
