That was a rather pointed reference to the writers' strike, which is why Dr. Horrible happened. :) It's sad the Writer's Guild didn't get everything they wanted, they sort of caved in the end.
it's about time that guys gotten some recognition! He's created such unique, yet extremely entertaining shows and he deserves more than one... I love him !
"Outstanding Special Class Short Format Live Action Entertainment Programs". I had to back it up and play it a half dozen times to get the whole name of the category. I don't know whether to cheer for Dr. Horrible for winning or jeer at it because they made this special category with a name several miles long.
Yes, this is truly what Joss and all of them deserve. Not only regocnition of great art by the fans, but public big-time recognition, as well. An award! Not just an award, an Emmy! Illyria God King says way to go Joss! You deserve it!
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS MUSICAL AND I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT THIS CATAGORY WAS INVENTED JUST FOR THEM
LOVE Dr Horrible. And love the guy presenting the award, he's been awesome in Ally McBeal, Veronica Mars, Glee & buttloads of stuff!! And yet I still don't know his name XD
Aw! When was this on the Emmys? If it was at the last 15 minutes, I'm going to be so pissed that I fell asleep! I don't remember seeing it during the previous part of the emmys, but I did see pics on twitter.
@KamikazeChris33 yea but they dont say all the people who are, they have to pack the whole show in like an hour and a half or something ( w comm) so non of the nom are said just the winners
Love how you said Nathan would be chasing Doctor Horrible. Not Captain Hammer- the actor playing him. Just thought you should get appreciation for this a decade later.
If I had a time machine right now I'd go back to this night and scream till my lungs bleed "WOLOWITZ!!!, GET YOU DOCTRINE, YOU"RE NOT GOING TO HEAR THE END OF IT FROM SHELDOR!!!!!!!"
"The greatest expression of rebellion is JOY" This goes out to FOX, did you idiots hear the man ??? I could kiss him for that ! Joss forget about those networks, please start you own chanel on the net.
@kperkins737 He is, he is a total genius. The problem is that though his work is incredbile, the morons of the world don't watch it enough, so it doesn't get the ratings it deserves. I'm always gutted when one of his major programmes gets finished :(
My question is why is showing off only his chest?!?!!??? Actually I'll take Nathan Fillion showing off his chest at the Tech Emmys over Bill Shatner showing off his at the Primetime Emmys. Bllleeeccchhhh!!!!
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Yessss!! Go you good thang! Joss Whedon is made of Awesome!! as is the entire cast and crew of Doc H! mmmyum Captain Hammer, save me baby and I'll save you right back! xo ;-)
I don't care if the category was invented just for Dr.Horrible, I still loved It!!!!!
"The greatest expression of rebellion is joy" just became one of my favorite sentences ever!
That was a rather pointed reference to the writers' strike, which is why Dr. Horrible happened. :) It's sad the Writer's Guild didn't get everything they wanted, they sort of caved in the end.
I think he said that because he was "rebelling" by doing the writers' strike
"We are honored to accept the award for ... most incomprehensible category" LOL
it's about time that guys gotten some recognition! He's created such unique, yet extremely entertaining shows and he deserves more than one... I love him !
I totally don't have a tattoo that reads "The greatest expression of rebellion is joy"

I love that entire cast went up and not just Joss Whedon. Very neat.
thank you so much for posting! I was in class during the airing :(
NPH looking hot in his penguin suit :) And Joss just being awesome.
"outstanding special class short format live action entertainment programs" ohhh my goodness thats a long one
We honored to accept the award for most incomprehencable catagory.
I'm sure you are.
I was waiting for Captain Hammer to steal the mic with a "Nobody wants to hear you talk" remark... :(
the most incomprehensible title, but the BEST thing on the internet by far. :D
I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THIS MUSICAL AND I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT THIS CATAGORY WAS INVENTED JUST FOR THEM
It is ABOUT TIME. Joss has deserved an Emmy for many, many years.
It would have been great if Joss held up the Emmy and said, "This is not the hammer..."
Cuz he's the Hammer man. Nuff said
WELL THANKS FOR THE CLIFFHANGER MATE
LOVE Dr Horrible. And love the guy presenting the award, he's been awesome in Ally McBeal, Veronica Mars, Glee & buttloads of stuff!! And yet I still don't know his name XD
Yes, Joss' first Emmy win.
@JeMSx7 they did pretty much invent it for Dr. Horrible yes
That could be the "Emmy for best Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog" goes to...
"The greatest expression of rebellion is joy." -- I love this. It's gonna go on a post-it note on my bedroom wall!
I cheered when the theme came up.
Finally! An award for these fantabulous actors! I screamed when they came on tv ha!
love that quote. bookmarked, copyed, pasted, said it was said by the legendary Joss, and then sent it to everyone I know. done!
Pretty much sounds like they made a category so Dr. Horrible could win something.
Because they deserve SOMETHING for what they've done.
OH GOD!!! Who does the Emmy for 'Outstanding special class short format non-fiction programs' go to?!?!
THE TORTURE
@loeisechan actually they did do something look up 2009 Emmys dr. Horrible interruption on youtube. They did this whole taped thing. IT'S HILARIOUS!
Aw! When was this on the Emmys? If it was at the last 15 minutes, I'm going to be so pissed that I fell asleep! I don't remember seeing it during the previous part of the emmys, but I did see pics on twitter.
He hoted it last year (09) yeah. Did a pre-taped joke based on Dr horrible as well as produced the award show. Busy boy. :P
I like how they all went up :)
The next category being read's like a punchline.
@KamikazeChris33 yea but they dont say all the people who are, they have to pack the whole show in like an hour and a half or something ( w comm) so non of the nom are said just the winners
A shame they didn't do anything, like, have Dr. Horrible steal the Emmy or something, with Nathan chasing him. That would've been Awesome.
Love how you said Nathan would be chasing Doctor Horrible. Not Captain Hammer- the actor playing him. Just thought you should get appreciation for this a decade later.
Well, they did hijack the Emmys that year via video.
If I had a time machine right now I'd go back to this night and scream till my lungs bleed "WOLOWITZ!!!, GET YOU DOCTRINE, YOU"RE NOT GOING TO HEAR THE END OF IT FROM SHELDOR!!!!!!!"
I love how tiny Simon looks in comparison to Nathan. LOL.
Am I the only one that didn't know that that category existed? Did they just invent it for that show, because honestly.
@Simoneiscooler I'm reasonably sure that Joss Whedon *was* hungover during that speech.
that's because he IS a hungover businessman, that's one thing that makes him so great.
I keep "On the Rise" where I can find it easily.
Most incomprehensible catagory!
I guess they thought "Best Web Miniseries Ever" wasn't dignified enough :/
To say I'm proud would be an understatement.
For those of us that have loved Joss since Buffy...FINALLY! Now they need to give him a true blue Emmy, and an Oscar, and a Writers Guild Award...lol.
The category title was longer than Joss' speech.
LOL I love how Joss is dressed nice with the exception of the sneakers.
A proud moment for Whedonites everywhere.
I would say it got good around mid season one and hasn't had a bad episode since.
What Joss wore made me smile. Break the conventions as always, Joss ;)
Emmy for oustanding special class short format non-fiction programs goes to who? GOES TO WHOO!!!!??
That's Dr. Horrible's theme music.
Felicia Day is AWESOME!!!
its an HONOR TO BE NOMINATEEEEED XD
And yes, NPH. Your did win, regardless whether it was pretaped or not...
the next award goes to....hey its Dr horrible agian how about that?lol
we'll never know who won :(
They had to invent a category for Joss to win
"The greatest expression of rebellion is JOY"
This goes out to FOX, did you idiots hear the man ???
I could kiss him for that !
Joss forget about those networks, please start you own chanel on the net.
Is that Joss giving the speech? I always imagined him looking differently somehow...
...A BIRTHDAY CAKE!!!
It's Wayne Jarvis!
Joss's the BEST!!
What a genious
They never do reruns
Special class? Is that Special Ed section of the Academy?
Thank you for clearing that up.
so will dr. horrible continue ">?
Good man Joss. Keep Flying dude.
Writer's Draft, some show on Fox
I love that Joss is wearing sneakers. Rock on!
Yeah Dr. Horrible won but why the longest category name ever?
Howard, not Sheldon
Joy? Did you see the final result Joss? Its sad as balls.
Why is Nathan Fillion showing off his chest???
oh Joss Whedon
what is your facial hair supposed to be?
If you didn't already like Joss before you saw this little acceptance speech, you'd *have* to like him after you listened. Short, heartfelt & sweet.
Speech?
so very awesome :D
@kperkins737 He is, he is a total genius. The problem is that though his work is incredbile, the morons of the world don't watch it enough, so it doesn't get the ratings it deserves. I'm always gutted when one of his major programmes gets finished :(
You rock so much for this comment!
@kairakia Nathan is 6'1.5" and NPH is 6'1" - pretty close!! I agree, they do a good job making it look like there is a big difference in height.
ummmm who or what were they against?
Now we'll never know ;_;
@0:55 am I the only one that thought he was joking at first
WHO DID IT GO TO!!!! GRAHHHH
all of them
joss is wearing trainers lol, he is a cool guy.
Oh my jesus Nathan Fillion and Sheldon wtf
Well deserved!
My question is why is showing off only his chest?!?!!???
Actually I'll take Nathan Fillion showing off his chest at the Tech Emmys over Bill Shatner showing off his at the Primetime Emmys. Bllleeeccchhhh!!!!
Who?? Goes to Who?
Joss is a legend :)
YAY.
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! Yessss!! Go you good thang! Joss Whedon is made of Awesome!! as is the entire cast and crew of Doc H! mmmyum Captain Hammer, save me baby and I'll save you right back! xo ;-)
